    Till They Know You're Smart----

    Looks can be very misleading for those who rely on them ;) And the same goes for one's way of speaking. That is until you do something that flies in the face of the apparent observation. When I went shopping in my garden clothes a couple watched me. Then I sat into my car, that was a better one...

    Emotional Intelligence

    Nobody needs to explain to me why it is useful. Whether I can do it without betraying myself is what I need to lean better. This video doesn't do that.

    When did you realize that you're different for the 1st time?

    I cannot claim that it was a particular point in time after which I realized how different I am. Rather it trickled in slowly over the years. I remember my mother saying that I was different and me showing that I am so that I'd notice myself. It took some years until I fully realized I don't...

    Parental Acceptance Struggle with Aspergers

    I have always been trying to make my parents understand, that I am different and they shall pay attention to what is moving me. Since my self diagnosis more than 2 years ago it seems more successful. Still, the past cannot be undone. I think they still don't understand fully how much they hurt...

    Rocco Actually, I have moved beyond even before I decided to undergo the diagnosis procedure. Otherwise I wouldn't have been able to. Vanilla How I see myself matters a lot indeed. However, if I lose sight of NT's perspective altogether I'm not going to achieve anything, for I depend on them...

    It really depends on what you want. I alwayas had Android for Smartphone and Tablet as well. Recently I replaced a Samsung by a Fairphone,because i wanted a dual sim with longer battery life. The Fairphone offers these features and comes already rooted and has more internal storage. While...

    "They" almost succeeded I must admit and I might not be alive today had I not proven them wrong. People telling me what is not possible, what I cannot and what I may not and that tried many ways to prevent me from using workarounds and protectors. And the people as well as the school system...

    I've been diagnosed recently after having been convinced I was affected for more than 2 years. I finally felt strong enough to go through this process and I was right that I'll need to be. Although well intended, the letters of diagnosis seem to highlight disabilities rather than abilities. And...
