    Meditation

    Warmheart - I can not thank you enough. This is wonderful to read and gives me an " I can do this" motivation. So much of what you said resonates with how I'm doing and what I want in my life. Very grateful. Wooaspie - I love the "Dams have spillways" image, it's perfect. Asheskyler - I so...

    Interview Attire.

    The second is a good choice. I think it looks the most professional of the three. I would leave the necklace or find a different one, but I think it really balances out the outfit.

    Meditation

    Reading through posts in the forum, I see several people mention meditation (some practicing daily). I am hoping to learn a few things about meditation in relation to AS. If you do it... Can you describe your process? When and how frequently? What are you doing to motivate yourself? How is...

    Do you have different kind of friends and how many friends?

    I have my partner of nine years and a friend I've known for over 30 years. These are the closest. I have a couple good friend that are related to my old friend (her mom and boyfriend). The rest are acquaintances but we've never gone out for coffee or anything like that. I want to grow a few of...

    what are your special gifts?

    This is going to sound weird or maybe superficial but I am great at washing dishes (and I like it). I am super fast which surprises people. Like really fast. And I get them clean! I look in the sink and determine where things are going to go in the rack and how as a group I can manipulate...

    Question for you Doctor Who fans...

    Hmmmm... very good question. I think you're right on all fronts. I think they need to use them less, the Doctor needs to not so easily vanquish them each time (sometimes in the 10s of 1000s). We shouldn't see their inner workings, they should remain mysterious. There should be more one on...

    Another one here

    Welcome, I am new too. I arrived here after getting an official diagnosis and wondering what the heck it all meant. That said, I wish I or someone else self diagnosed me many years ago. I'm sorry you received the response you did and I understand the fear. I was scared to go in and get the...

    "Logic" vs social responses

    I have just found out I have AS and I am trying to figure this out too. It would make such a huge difference with my SO. It consistently seems like once the person I'm communicating with states what a logical or socially appropriate response is. I'm like... of course. But figuring out what to...

    What did you feel when a Special Interest ended?

    I feel a sense of grief. My Special Interests are apart of my identity. They were at times a way that I would reach out to others that had a similar interest. ****Okay - Now that I have read the thread*** There is a part of me that needs to really understand something. If I need to buy a...

    Hi from New Orleans, LA

    Thank you everyone! It's great to hear from people. And Vanilla - thank you for the book recommendation. I'm reading like mad trying to learn what fits and doesn't for me. Best wishes

    Hi from New Orleans, LA

    Hi. I'm 45 and new to all this. I've been poking around this site since last Tuesday, when I was officially diagnosed with high functioning autism and major depression. I've been in therapy for years for trauma related stuff and my biggest issues (I thought) were dissociation and anxiety...
