    Fully Exhausted My Romantic Partner

    That sentence holds the answers you need. You need to be able to move on and find people that you fit in better with, but far more importantly than that you need to learn how to be independent and self supporting. Get a job, earn money, rent your own place to live in. This is incredibly...

    My Dads friend doesn't have long to live =( he has cancer =(

    As you get older you start having to deal with these sorts of situations more often, none of us live forever. The last thing he needs is people being sad and miserable around him, try to bring him some joy instead.

    Many ruminants such as sheep and goats have the same problem. If they eat too much of the wrong thing gases form in the first stomach that they can't get rid of. The stomach bloats bigger and bigger until the lungs are squashed and they can't breath.

    How to deal with losing a special interest that others don`t want you to let go?

    That's exactly how it went for me. I still tinker a little if I decide I need a new graphics card or whatever, but it's just not fun like it used to be. Instead I now prefer just like you said, plug and play. When I found out about autism and things started to click in to place for me I moved...

    How to deal with losing a special interest that others don`t want you to let go?

    For me it's been a long slow process, the fascination with computers has finally died though. My interest first started back in 95 with a second hand 386 computer and learning how to beef it up a bit so that I could play games on it. At this time the internet was just going through it's first...

    Favorite Music Time Period?

    The 70s and 80s were a huge era for Aussie music but it started dwindling in the 90s. Many of our popular artists back then were better live than they were on tape and live music was what everyone went for for entertainment. AC/DC back when Angus really was young: The Black Sorrows: The...

    Realizing you're autistic, how'd you react?

    At the time I was living a semi feral lifestyle in remote tropical rainforests and had been homeless for many years. Finding out about autism was the key to understanding how I got there. I was happy to finally have some answers.

    Introducing myself

    Hi and welcome to the forum. Your doctor gave you good advice, no matter how much people study autism they can never truly understand unless they are living it.

    Son has been progressing very well since coming out

    @Aproudmom , I have no opinions on this topic myself. Although @Hazel_1914's advice might not be what you want to hear he is a young cross dresser going through hormonal transition and he understands all the problems your son will face quite intimately. He has been recording some of his journey...

    Sony & TCL Merger

    Same. Very common brand of white goods in Australia but they have a mixed reputation - very good products and very cheap but poor quality control. So if you get a good one then it's really good and will last you for years but there's also a fair chance that you'll get a lemon. Retailers are...

    Intro - Late Diagnosis, Interests, etc.

    From very early childhood I always knew I was different to everyone else but we didn't have the words to describe things like autism back then. I was very successful in life until I burnt out in my 40s, and then I ran away in to the rainforests to live like a feral and was homeless for 12 years...

    Intro - Late Diagnosis, Interests, etc.

    Hi and welcome to the forum. That's the most comprehensive introduction post I've seen so far. You sound like so many of us here. Welcome home. I'm an irreverent Aussie diagnosed at age 55.

    Post something Weird or Random

    This was the side of things that I was taught, and that early races were actually clandestine meets between different grog runners. They'd get together to discuss different tactics and strategies to avoid detection and show off their cars while they were at it. Car racing in Australia didn't...
