    research!

    It's alright. I was confused, I suppose, by the intention of the thread and what you first posted. My apologies.

    research!

    Here's an overall answer to the question of improving dental health overall through diet: Foods and Drinks Best for Your Teeth (I would recommend altering your diet ever so slightly to health your teeth. Nutrition is very important to examine anyway when you look at teeth.) I hope this helps.

    "Aspergers is not an excuse."

    I think it's exactly as Arashi222 points out earlier in the thread. I can get very overloaded with a task. Indeed I experience this every time I go up to the board in my mathematics tutorial at St. John's. Students at St. John's are required to do math "propositions" as according to the...

    Dealing with a Lot of Information / Experience at Once

    Can you elaborate more on your "coping skills?" Do they depend on the situation at hand or is there a more general approach you take with each situation?

    Dealing with a Lot of Information / Experience at Once

    I do not see a thread for this in the forums, so I will ask away in a new thread here. :) So my anxiety comes in two parts. The first part of my anxiety, basically, is worrying. It comes and it goes, but usually over hypothetical situations. This drives me nuts and honestly makes up a good...

    What are your current obsessions?

    I've been fascinated by many things in my life, but I've come to realize that my previous interests are interconnected into different categories, which seem to me to be my obsessions / long-term interests. (1) Health a) Postures at the toilet, in sitting down, etc. b) Walking Barefoot...

    Hello Everybody!

    Welcome to the forums, Sev. I think the forums are the best place to learn about Asperger's Syndrome, especially since it is integrated with both people's experiences and opinions as well as websites to look at the condition itself. I hope your stay on the forums will be a helpful one. --Brandon

    I'm new here

    Welcome to the forums, Sarah. I have learned much from these forums in the last few days. The people on here are very insightful and diverse, making the community exactly as Jacki describes it, "a close-knit family." Anyway, though, there are many people on this forum with Asperger's / AS...

    Recurring silence

    I think the best thing to say is to learn how to appreciate the silence. I've learned to be silent when I do not have anything to say and when I do have something to say that I think will at least contribute to the conversation say it and then listen and be quiet. Tell the people around you that...

    Autistic Children Association Chair's Remarks Bring Controversy

    We are. We are human beings. What hurts the most, though, is that she does not contemplate fully how Autistic children are capable of the same things as non-autistic people. It hurts, but that is why we must explain to people how we are capable of such things. :)

    Introducing Myself

    Geordie, Your heartfelt words are most appreciated. I have to say that the Great Books Program is very helpful for my case because what it allows me to do is to listen while enjoying very great conversations and great classics of Western literature. But it is more helpful in the immediate term...

    Autistic Children Association Chair's Remarks Bring Controversy

    Autistic children are not void of any faculty that allows them to partake in faith and in other religious rituals. And yet I must ask how this man can make the statement he did. :*( It's such a shame to see this said; but it must be noted that even with therapy, children in the end are the ones...

    Your "to read" list

    I've always had books I wanted to read. Long reading-queues for years; I always plan what I want to read next whenever it is for my own leisure. This is my queue, at least as it extends itself into the summer of this year: (1) Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking...

    Food Food Food

    I very much enjoy vegan cuisine. No dairy products, no egg products, and no meat / poultry / fish. Sometimes my veganism will also take me, at times, as far as to the gluten-free side of eating and even raw veganism. I consider eating gluten-free and raw veganism to be flavors in my diet. I've...
