    Aspergers & Autism Tattoos

    :) Yeah, it almost convinced me to give in and get 3 little birds tattoo from the 3 little birds song by Bob Marley with which I start my day sometimes, but then I got carried away and thought of doing the whole songs lyrics visually and I stopped (OCD). So afraid to act and Bible references...

    Aspergers & Autism Tattoos

    Hello Nothing to see here, Your message made me cry as I have been stuck in the holds of depression - or as I think of it seeing the world for what it is and don't really see things and think how beautiful it is often. I over think tattoos also and have never been able to get one due to 100's of...

    Thank you Albe, That's a good point. I thought with Aspergers one of the typical traits is struggling with this very fact though (different viewpoints / opinions). I realize I need to sit and learn some of these "social tricks" consciously. Not sure I really know how to though. In a job role I...

    I often get told off on my "opinions". I mean no harm or judgement. In fact I was raised Christian and attended church for 17 years consistently, apart from my numerous years in and out of religion as an adult. It is only once I started seeing how religious people justify what they have to do...

    Your response brought a smile to my face :) cluck cluck cluck... I wish I could just accept that the way you seem to. Someone once told me if I see something differently it's my responsibility to change it. I feel that way about the world and society, where to begin on a large scale is the...

    Volunteering with special needs children

    Hi As sweet as-pie, I think you should do it. (I have been thinking of doing the same, but I need to focus on bringing in money somehow - volunteering for me would be an expense I cannot afford.) My general experience from observation is that parents don't have a clue to what they are doing...

    Hi Progster, Your comment about sitting next to a popular boy made me sad in a way. It meant all the other nice boys that didn't stand out was probably missed in the process. For the most part of my school experience I never spoke to / had female friends. It seemed everyone was trying to fit in...

    Hi Bella Pines, Your response is very insightful. It makes me sad for the world though that the majority of people would prefer to act and be a sheep. Somewhere along the lines I took it upon myself to share my "opinion" with everyone I end up in conversation with. It ends up in receiving a lot...

    Hello SusanLR, I guess the clown comment triggered me. It's interesting as even though in school period I didn't hang out with the popular crowds I still had some various friends. For the most part I was constantly "entertaining" them. And as I saw them again over the years they would keep...

    Body Image Issues?

    Someone made a comment about my outie belly button (due to the way the DR tied it and how much they left when cutting the cord) It's not badly shaped or just a buldge, but I noticed as a child how it was different and kids don't act well towards difference. Since then I was obsessed with...

    What do you collect?

    I think I've been collecting information, photos, songs, movies, etc my whole life. Just to collect. I lost many of it which probably de-motivates as the intention is to keep. I mostly collect information from articles, in hundreds of folders. Most of which are so badly organized it's rarely...
