    My thinking is that many people project guilt when all we do is say the truth. But they expect everyone to lie and just be nice. Even though...

I have vivid nightmares when I sleep. They seem so real, but I know it is a dream and I finally force myself awake,, because I'd I fall back to sleep the same dreams keep on going. I even have the same dream on several nights. Does anyone else have dreams like this? This has been...
I decided to give it a shot at writing these a bit later so they can be more like a diary of sorts, or a way to publicly vent? 🤭🤭 Woke up having an episode but now Im realizing I'm having one, which is a good thing. Next step is working on, not preventing them or shunning what I'm feeling but...

Maybe I should write these a bit later in the night but they don't fit in with my daily routine that I've changed a bit and it caused me some not good things to happen. It's weird Every time I change one little thing in my routine my brain goes into panic mode and gets depressed... Anyway I...
Another early post My day just barely started and I am already writing about it? ... Not really In my introduction I called myself a "Muxe" and that was wrong, I was appropriating culture from an indigenous group I'm not a part of and I should not have done so. I guess I am just looking for a...

So. My Dad, who I don't talk to, is visiting tomorrow for both mine and my Uncle's birthday. Even though my Uncle's birthday has since passed. I know. "He is doing it likely out of guilt. So take it for what it is". The problem is. I don't want him around. AT ALL. That maybe petty, but I...

It's difficult. But I need to ignore my negativity. I need to ignore my psychosis. The delusions I have all the time, are not real. I just need to remind myself that I can beat this. My issue with memory is purely this psychosis. Namely because I generally stop caring about anything when I have...
Today my brain decided to be mean for no reason and have a meltdown while I was vacuuming my room I said very bad things and I KNOW I should apologize but... The people I said bad things about have never apologized or cared about their actions towards me How can a person be "the bigger person"...

I really am seeing how difficult it is to be positive when I have the mindset that 'I'll always be kicked down for trying or doing or being'. I am thinking this has to do with way more than how my stepmother treated me. And alot more than Dad being absent as a father. Just due to my worldview...

Does anyone else seem to have a turtle trail that they follow. By that I mean a radius of familiar places that you frequent regularly. I do. Everyday I check the mail and everyday I find an excuse to go a block away to the grocery store. I go to church which is two trolley stops away every...

I want to be alone and not need anyone. I am tired of being hopeful. I am tired of hurting people without even knowing what i did. I am tired of the guilt. I want to live and die alone and in peace. I don't want anymore guilt on my conscience. I wish the people i met, like my friends never met...

this image comes with the description: "I asked an AI to draw a representation of Autism Part 2" If someone does not know how AI generate this images, is by taking thousands of images that have same word descriptions or tags, and generating new images that mix from the database.

I believe Everything happens for a reason. If i lose a friend it was meant to happen. I was masking with her a lot, trying to overcome my anxiety about unexpected situations. But she thrives on unexpected situations and seeks them out, even dangerous ones. I am too stressed to try to fit in...
