    Do you pass wind in front of your other half?

    I try not to, but they can be hilarious with the right sound and if the smell drifts away fast enough. There was a king hundreds of years ago who thought it was very unhealthy to hold in farts after eating dinner, so halls full of people would just be sat talking and farting after their meal. I...

    being used by relatives for free??

    hello, ok, I'm a brittle asthmatic aspie, working voluntarily, but I'm now free for two weeks. Yesterday my grandfather called to ask if I would help to move some logs, not very many, only a few minutes work. The logs are from a tree being cut down by my uncle. He is getting paid to cut down the...

    How can I get my sister just to mind her own business and stop being nosy?

    you can write a letter like someone said, but to be honest she may not take much notice, she sees you as her brother which somehow gives her an automatic right to oversee your life. The best way is probably face to face explanation about how she makes you feel, and how you feel your privacy is...

    controlling grandparents

    hello everybody. Ok. I had 20 jobs in three years, had to give up because of declining health and back problems, I have a 77 year old grandad and grandmother who rarely see my family. But lately my grandad has come to our house to help out with various home improvements/ jobs. Now, I have...

    Comment by 'Mr Faramoose' in 'Some of my bullying experiences that led to my breakdown in secondary school'

    i'm interested reading all of these, I was alone in school a lot too. One older boy asked me why I was carrying a toy monkey with me aged nine and I said '' because he's my friend''. I ran away from school and had police looking for me at age 5, then again age 10 [ nicknamed runaway kid''...

    Your Thoughts on Spectrum Conditions

    at least three people have written that they don't feel a need to have social contact or that they could not care less if they saw people on a regular basis. I'm the same, I don't really feel the need to talk to people, though I do it if I have to, but the funniest thing to me is when people say...

    A higher chance to develop PTSD like symptoms due to ASD?

    a lot of people seem to be in denial about how they are feeling but just seem to struggle on with it, obviously partially because they have to but to me, it's backwards, all of it, if aspies had designed the world it would probably be easier in some aspects but not others. Eg, most of us like to...

    PTSD, anyone dealing with or have?

    I think that non autistics process anxiety and fear a little differently from us, like they can just get over it a lot faster and they can block it if it comes back to go round in their head. That would explain why some aspies seem to lose control completely when things happen to them that a...

    What did you dream about recently?

    Re: What did you dream last night? this comes up repeatedly, I am on the ground outside, in a field usually, then I take off upwards, like I'm attached to a big balloon, I go shockingly and dangerously high and think, Oh my I'm the highest person in the world I'm going to hit the moon soon...

    Intrusive Thoughts?

    Re: Does anyone else suffer with intrusive thoughts? I also just noticed something, the post starter is called ''withnail88''. I'm wondering if that's a reference to the film ''withnail and I''? Great film if so! Quote, ''I DEMAND TO HAVE SOME BOOZE!'':D

    Intrusive Thoughts?

    Re: Does anyone else suffer with intrusive thoughts? unfortunately, yes, I know exactly what you mean. It came on for me after a lot of stress/ paranoia, I began seeing things in my head that weren't real, but that I saw myself doing. An example is using a knife when feeling worked up/...

    Do Aspies find it scary to have such a large number of facebook friends.

    I have 12 because I am awesome. And I have regular contact with just three of them. I have thirty six blocked. Doesn't that say how hard it is for some aspies to make and keep friends? I have four on here, made within the last week or so. And they aren't at all annoying because they seem to...

    Jobs..............you got one???

    I'm good at writing, I can conjure poems in my head without having to think about it, but I suck at social conversations. For example; There was once a poor old gardener, who sat upon his wall, he spied a cat taking a walk on his patch who took him for a fool. That's technically a hiku [mis...
