    need advice regarding meltdowns

    Well said Arashi222! It is also exhausting after a meltdown (male or female) and I know I used to feel depressed and fall asleep (before I knew what the problem was).

    LEARNING PIANO (by ear)

    I am not certain but I believe some of the best keyboard players through out history were self taught! Mozart; Beethoven and Chopin? Did they all have lessons? Beethoven was already phenomenal at 5 years old!

    Aspies and Lying

    I am with you Arashi222! The few times I have tried (or been forced) to lie, I am just no good at it! Also, I know a few people who lie constantly....why....because once they tell one lie, that have to tell another!!! My girlfriend has a friend like that and I wanted to talk to her some but I...

    Aspies and Lying

    I have a very difficult time lying. I was raised Catholic and we had to go to confession every week! I used to be so happy when I got into a fight with one of my brothers because then I would have a sin to confess!! If I didn't get in a fight, I really didn't have anything to confess but still...
