    Feeling tired of being a chameleon

    I was researching hypoallergenic breeds because I have massive allergies; my sister has an American Alsatian, and I don't seem to be bothered by him at all, but I need a breed that can handle warmer climates. I was comparing poodles and labradoodles, since they seem to come highly recommended...

    Feeling tired of being a chameleon

    Thanks, guys! It's really nice to know that even NTs can feel this way. I'm afraid that I'm a better writer than a talker. I try to explain it to my parents, I get flustered and freaked out. I'm afraid I might say something that someone will take the wrong way or might make them feel bad...

    Is Autism a Disability? Or a Gift?

    I don't really see it as a gift or a curse. I see it as a part of me, just how I'm wired. What really gets my hackles up is either "you don't look autistic" or "you can't be autistic, you have a sense of humor." Unfortunately, to the general populace, you're either a genius or a completely...

    Feeling tired of being a chameleon

    Does anyone else feel like they are exhausted from trying to blend-in and meet the neurotypical expectation of fitting in to make others feel more comfortable? After five years of college, three lost jobs, and now having to face finding another job (going through the whole interview process...

    What do you collect?

    First of all, Questella, I love your pic! I have a Fluttershy snap bracelet that I wear constantly! Although, I'm a die-hard Luna fan. On that note, I have recently taken to collecting those little mystery bag MLP figurines. I get one for every important occasion, like my sister's senior recital...

    Aspies and Art

    Lucky you. I can't do cross stitching to save my life. My grandmother and great aunts tried to teach me, but I could never get the hang of it. That one you posted is beautiful. :D

    Actor/Actress Obsession?

    Does anybody have a bit of an obsession with any actors/actresses? I myself love Karl Urban's acting and have recently developed a bit of a fangirl crush on a certain Lee Pace. The guy makes a most excellent elf, if I do say so myself.

    Do you prefer Night? Darkness?

    Yes, I am a total night owl. I prefer the night hours because they are quiet, and I can get stuff done. I have a slight obsession with the full and crescent moons. Full moons mean more stuff happens; the crescent is graceful-looking. Bright light gives me major headaches (the full spectrum UV...

    Aspies and Art

    I am actually a fine arts major at my college. I have always loved to draw and paint. I've fiddled with clay now and again. Subtractive drawings are my forte (however, it is very, very messy. All that charcoal and it doesn't come off...ever! XD) I prefer the old masters like Da Vinci and...

    To what fictional character (s) can you relate?

    I really relate to Elsa from "Frozen." I always had to do as I was told or I felt that I was an awful daughter/sister. I always felt I had to be perfect. I was afraid of human contact because I was bullied A LOT. As I have gotten older and gone back to college, I'm starting to break free of that...

    Do All of You Have a Thing???

    I have always had an obsession with horses, ever since I was a little girl. However, my other interests come and go, or change completely. In an effort to force myself into more social situations, I will take up a new interest. I actually went to my church's ballroom dancing classes for two...

    Do you talk to animals?

    I have the job of caring for two fluffy bunny boys and two beautiful bonded parakeets. Our lop uses me as his personal chew toy, and our Rex mix just ignores me for most of the time, unless I have food. >D He usually gives me a look usually reserved by cats, aloof as a piece of rock. My budgies...

    Anyone have a favourite animal sound?

    I love the sound of playing foals. Those cute little squeals and mini whinnies that are a shadow of the ringing trumpets and soft wickers of the adults. I also love the sound of singing male budgies. My little guy burbles, bubbles, chirps, coos, chatters, warbles, and shrieks all in one song. He...

    Favourite TV Show/Series?

    Okaaaay, adding to my last post: THEY PICKED FROZEN!!! I almost hurt something laughing (mostly out of pure shock). I have to admit that I did not see that coming. It was such a new movie, and I honestly never saw it coming. Also, I officially HATE Emma Swan. She is a freakin' idgit! How many...

    Hey I`m autistic just recently found out.

    Hey, Jen! Nice to see another artist joining AC! I'm currently a Fine Arts major at UAA, and I'm so excited to be following my dreams of becoming an artist. Your painting is really good. The tones are lovely, and it shows pretty deep emotion. I think that for us, our art is our communication to...
