    I realize that how my family and how other 12 steppers think of me is irrelevant.

    @Metalhead I'm so sorry for everything you've had to suffer through. I can relate in a lot of ways that I don't want to get into right now but I absolutely detest my dad and step mother (who was just his gf at the time) for introducing me to extreme hardcore pornography when I was only about 7...

    Autistic songs?

    I don't know if any of the band members are on the spectrum but this song really describes my autism experience. It uses religious language in a few spots so hope that doesn't offend, it's done in a pretty unconventional way and metaphor. I can't really listen to this song without getting choked...

    Describe your experience with crowds…

    I can definitely relate. I'm with @Ronald Zeeman on this one, I just tend to avoid crowds all together. Even grocery shopping at a smaller supermarket at times can be overwhelming for me. I wish I wasn't this way but my social anxiety feels so deeply ingrained in me I can't imagine being any...

    Hello! Recently diagnosed adult :)

    Hi @HorseloverFat welcome to the board! Comparative religion nerd here. I love learning all about ancient primitive and pagan customs and although it's a controversial subject for most people I love seeing how much symbolism and the meanings cross pollinate among more modern religious systems...

    How do you react to verbal fighting?

    It happened today. Two people I know were getting into it very loudly and I went into the bathroom to hide and cry I am way too sensitive. It wasn't really even about me or anything it just makes me sad when people I love are fighting and mad at each other especially family and friends.

    Are you a cuddly person?

    I love cuddles with my cat Smokey he's the best and the sweetest AND he can even catch mice and birds. I edited the background so you don't see my messy room unfortunately but this was my favorite pose he made so I had to take a picture. My other cat Simon comes and gives me head butts every...

    What is an album you loved when you were young that's just as magical to you now later on in life?

    I first discovered this album by complete accident when I was about 15. The album cover was really soothing and aesthetic to me so I bought it and just really fell in love with it. One really cool thing about the frontman, Ray Raposa, that he spent most of his life traveling the country by...

    Strange reply from my husband, which raised a question in my mind.

    Im a little torn about this because I understand the "calling your bluff" sort of thing, but there has to be better ways to defuse and deescalate the situation. I brought up some really tough feelings once to a partner, not even in an argument, not trying to be manipulative and I'm not sure what...

    Struggling With Depression

    I deal with the same feelings, constant feeling of dread, knot in stomach. I couldn't buy groceries at the store because people too close to me and feeling like everyone was looking at me. I'm happy you're here to the forums because I don't have the answers and my life is still a battle so I...

    What were some typical childhood things most kids have done but you couldn’t (and still can’t)?

    It's the breath holding and breathing technique people have for swimming under water, something about breathing out air though the nose while under, Thanks for clarifying.
