Lost@plushy That has a multi faceted answer. Though the long and short of it is that I've, in one way or another, embraced the darkness. Just not...- Xinyta

I'm Not An Artist.Do not feed into the lies of the mind. No one and nothing can stop you from trying, other than yourself. I draw on occasion. You'll see my profile...

mahogany desktop
Tiffany framed photos;
myself and the dog
drifting incense
bells whisper and sigh
luminous moon
fireflies
sing in meadows
like symphonic stardust
bright, illuminating but soon

After some silence, it's time for another blog entry! This time, my title is full of clickbait. Because (I'll let you all in on a little secret here) this is not actually an entry about effective ways to maintain your sanity. No, this is just pure clickbait... Or, you know, a bad joke. Either...
I have been trying to learn all useful and encouraging information from others with ASD, and the great thing about youtube videos is that I can listen to them while doing other tasks. Helps me get through chores while I get to learn about what I need to know, or at least keeps me company. I'm...
You may have remembered me being the Psychology dude or man of possibility with narrow view. Well I wish to show a trick with Pandora.
1 Never hit the thumbs up. This removes the biased selection of the same music. It will attempt to change the radio's style if you click it.

After doing a top favorite albums list from the Psychedelic Furs I had been wanting to do a top favorite songs list. I thought of doing a top 10 or top 20 but they would be really hard to do, so I thought of only doing a top 5 list.
Don't worry, I'm not choosing the ones that are more popular...
I'm breaking my rules by publishing pictures of an animal with my fruits. That's fine, I guess. There's also a vegetable with the mushrooms. Nopales, or prickly pear cactus leaves. I have pictures of a cacao (chocolate) fruit, a zapote, a sapodilla, some toronjitas, and some giant Campeche...
How to Choose your Username: a Guide
*copied from WP. My work. *double copied to my blog.
So coming up with creative names to represent me always posed a significant problem for me. This was an issue I had before I had accepted my previous diagnosis that I had Asperger`s. DSM IV had barely...
This is a P R O T O T Y P E! I am a concept person. I do not remember or understand through the details. If I were speaking from that understanding I would be using the Sensing personality.
Let me explain how you will not be able to prove me wrong! This(Idea) is a concept I (Ragnahawk) threw...
Basic Training
I am in the army. Mistake. It all started with a certain push from my father, which was suggestive to help me be successful in life. He was prior military. I was inducted into basic training. Immediately after a week or two I was identified as "that dude". That odd guy. I had...
Still......very confused and bewildered by this. I have the world's greatest husband, so supportive. We have no kids. When I get home from work, I feel I need to just be entirely alone. Greeting him lovingly, being a good companion for him - these things mean I can't recharge after my work...
So far, amazingly, I think I have made a good impression on most people at work. What has helped is very unexpected: there is a manager there whom everyone already hates. Yes, he is over me - but, it is an advantage, now the NTs already have someone pegged as they person they dislike, as the...
I'm continuing to try to figure out how to best handle this, to see what I can manage. Now I understand why so many Aspies apparently can't handle anything else once they come home from full time work - meaning some need to just be entirely alone to do their own thing, not have to interact with...
Okay, so that title is misleading. This is just something that has bothered me - I seem to attract users. Mothers who are users. Meaning, they pay a lot of attention to me and act really friendly when they want something from me, but when they don't want something from me, they ignore me...
My new job is full-time. I have read that many Aspies find they cannot work full-time. Though my job is ideal considering potential "burnout/get-fired danger zone areas" that I have/might face at other jobs, it is still full-time. The trouble with full-time is simply the length of it. That...
I recently experienced something that reminded me of reactions from NTs that catch me off guard.
1) The person with whom I really seem to hit it off, they are talking and talking, we are friendly, we leave friendly, it seems nice - and then the next time I see them, they do not act friendly at...
Yesterday me and my mom printed out an application (10 pages long) for Vocational Rehabilitation. Vocational Rehabilitation is a place where they find jobs that are suitable for people with disabilities. Since I have ASD, I would love to have a job that is easier, understandable, not hard and...
I have spoken a lot to my husband on the journey of learning about ASD.....but I don't get a lot of response. He is very patient and understanding, though. But now, when I express frustrations as an Aspie.....he just looks like it is adding strain on him. And he doesn't have much response -...
So.....my poor executive functioning and being overwhelmed with the new job have caught up with me. I had some unexpected things come up - medical appointments and car problems - and trying to juggle the new things into my schedule, I wound up late to work. I am new...so nobody had my number...
I had been seeing a doctor who was very nice, and the one with the highest reviews and most experience with my particular health condition. However, I am directionally challenged, and my GPS would go nuts trying to get me there. The area is unfamiliar to me and quite confusing with winding...
I need to do this in diagnostic criteria examples which ill do later....for now these are the symptoms i think fit into the criteria in no special order
I walk on my toes because i hate how the floor feels on the soles of my feet. i would walk on my toes in public if it wasn't seen as weird
