My memory has a habit of failing me, I'd like for it to work, but it just eludes me half the time

I am happy to say this trip was good for me for two reasons. 1. I get to see a new place in the USA. 2. I get to indirectly address my psychological hangups through observation and new perspective. As far as the first one. I really have never been outside my own state too much. Missouri and...

Numerous times I've gone to have my massage and felt like a big bag of knots. Often times there are painful moments. But this whole session was very painful. I've been so stressed out lately that my muscles feel extremely tender. It was like someone pushing down hard on bruises. It was...

It's been a long time since I've written on here. I made it private about 6 months ago. Truth be told it was because I didn't want Meg to read what I'd written on here anymore. Yet there was also this voyeuristic thrill of knowing she did read my journals, even after we split up. Still, it...

It had not been an easy week for me. Autism research rabbit-hole aside, I was also trying to meet tight deadlines at work on a project. I was tired every day. It was hard to grapple with this new realization, that I may be autistic, during this stressful time. And yet, it also made me feel...

I’m gonna be calling these entries ‘Day One’, ‘Day Two’, but it isn’t actually a day-by-day kind of thing. It’s more of sequencing each day of significance in my journey. I would relish the opportunity to gather all the results of all my autism assessments and analyze them, compare them...

A more uplifting blog post for once here, I've decided that I think I need to push a little harder in life, and this includes things such as making new friends, pushing myself to talk more instead of being overly shy and never taking that first step, going outside the house a little more (which...

I guess when you experience everything alone, without having anyone to share your happiness and sadness you start to gaslight yourself into the thought that" its all in your head" your problems are not real,, your feelings are not real and its still not real when you cannot eat from anxiety and...

I've summarized this in my 'Introduce Yourself' post, which you can find here: What a relief! This goes more into my mind about it all, though. Just about that first day. And, before I go on, Trigger Warning: suicide and grief. I forget which day it was. From now until forever, I will...

The day started out bad but got better in the evening when my friend and her 5 yo daughter dropped by. She seems to like me even though i am not a particularly nurturing or empathetic person. Actually most children seem to like me for some strange reason. Maybe bc i am honest and childlike too...

I had a long talk with my uncle last night about issues that have been happening on the constant for as long as I have been alive. The biggest question is who I am as a person. I don't have an answer on any level for that. I somehow coasted through life not paying much attention to nearly...

I got made fun of by a family friend today, bc of my beliefs. Than another person chimes in talking about how someone famous wrote an article about how god doesn't exist and bla bla. I guess, congratulations since you can stand this life without getting suicidal and hating yourself...

Everyday Life
I need to get this all out there in hopes of finding some absolution in how I'm feeling; that is, maybe someone else is feeling this way too and through my struggles I've helped someone else - that would be great. The truth is, my whole life (I'm 50 this year) I have always felt out of place -...

I had an epiphany today about my own actions and behavior that reflected how I present myself. While I know there is always going to be a kid inside us. This was more immature behavior. Not wanting to face reality as far as life. Wanting to hide away. And I think I disliked myself, not for any...

Television Shows
I am obsessed despite the shortcomings of this show. Despite that it doesn't give that 70s feeling. Like, Daisy and Billy writing all these songs for each other, constantly seeing through each other's feelings, AND somehow performing them on stage while HATING each others guts and how the other...
