    Petition to make religion a blockable topic on your threads list.

    Judging by the discussion in this thread, I think I am better off leaving this site. Have a good day, everyone.

    The best school subject

    My best subject is math, though I also favor multiple sciences. I studied math up through calculus, and geometry is my favorite tool in that box. Physics is great too.

    Petition to make religion a blockable topic on your threads list.

    It's been driving me away too, and I just got here. Religion being discussed (not just mentioned) is a big trigger for me. I'll just leave the room, or in this case, the website. It's unfortunate because I really am seeking help and I don't want to lose resources.

    Being hard on yourself and self harming.

    I used to not self-harm at all. Now I have too many painful and traumatic memories I can't deal with. Recently I've been hitting myself and hitting my head against walls. It sure makes me focus on something else, but I'm afraid I'm doing lasting damage to myself too.

    Yes please. I recently asked for this too. Religion makes me uncomfortable.

    Why is British TV better than American TV? IMHO

    The shows I like come from all over the world. I don't have much of a preference. I just don't get most British humor.

    Question for non-Christians...

    When someone let's me know they're praying for me, I ignore them. That's their deal. I dislike religion and I won't waste my time on it.

    What’s your job and why

    I'm unemployed because I failed at everything I attempted. I just do household chores now while my fiance provides our income. I can cook pretty well though. Previously I was in college for mechanical engineering (attempt 1) and graphic design (attempt 2). I made it through 2 years in each...

    What noises are bugging you today?

    Some pigeons have nested on my roof and their eggs have hatched. I get to hear them screaming for food all day, every day now. At least the guy downstairs has finally stopped blasting music. I couldn't handle both.

    A Friend We Never See

    My best friend and I have never spoken to each other. Neither of us like phone calls and we live too far away. We just type to each other. I'm sure it appears too distant for a true friendship on the surface, but no one other than my fiance is that close with me. I'm sure if we lived nearby we'd...

    Me before and after knowing I have autism

    I've always stressed myself out over wondering what was wrong with me. I've only been clued-in for about a month, but now I feel like there's nothing wrong with me at all. I don't have to make up excuses when people wonder why I'm not functioning the same way they are. I can communicate my...
