    Comment by 'midlifeiris' in 'The next day'

    I did not mean to react to your comment as being funny!! I was going to press agree. Sometimes this computer has a mind of its own.

    The next day

    So I wrote a blog entry for the first time yesterday and I feel terrible about it. Actually I feel terrible about everything. Depression has set in on the eve of going back to work after I wrote such a glowing review of my current position. How will I get through the day? I know you can call in...

    Feeling better after reaching out for some support today with real live people not related to me! Unusual for me. Doing it again tomorrow.

    A painful unmasking...

    I've had two 9-5 jobs, but I don't think the first one really "counted" because I was working for my family, and they accepted me for me. But the first time I stepped out of the nest and tried a 9-5 with strangers, boy was I in for a wakeup call. For the first year I could basically stay a...

    Hello everyone

    Awesome, first, the Prelude to Outerspace is spooky but pretty cool. Second, Citizen Kane soundtrack is really good...I've seen the movie twice but didn't even notice the music. When I'm watching a movie I sometimes don't pick up on the music which actually can be a good thing. Meaning it's...

    Hello everyone

    I don't know who my favorite composer is but I love Dvorak, especially the Serenade for Strings. I don't know a lot of composers except the easier stuff that a high school or middle school orchestra would play. I'll have to check out Herrmann and Elfman...I've heard some of their stuff already...

    Do you ALWAYS have a song playing in your mind, 24/7?

    Every time I see my own name midlifeiris I hear the song "Mid Life Krysis" by Travis. I often have some song or lyrics in my head.

    Hello everyone

    Ah, spelled stimming I see. Forgive me for those and other spelling errors. Can you stim with just your mind hyper focusing on music? Perhaps lyrics were and are my special interest. But I love classical music too. I played the violin for a long time. Never got very good. But I loved the music...

    Hello everyone

    I am letting my boss and a select few coworkers know of my recent autism diagnosis. It is very free-ing and they are very understanding. I work in retail and it is not a very stressful job right now especially during summer months. The job attracts a lot of different kinds of people...it seems...

    If you could go on a grand adventure.

    I’d like to go to Finland and Ireland. I would like to go visit imaginary friends who would show me around and make me feel like a local. I would want my mom to come along. I would bring one little bag with me.

    Turning 35 this August

    I’ll be 40 next year and I have felt ashamed for being single and unaccomplished. Therapy is helping me accept who I am. I had a silent absent judging parent and a screaming heartfelt caring parent. My caring parent would have to give me multiple choice questions to see how I was - get nowhere...

    Anybody Shaking Uncontrollably?

    It could be stress. I shake in my left hand because of medication slightly but when I am having a panic attack my main symptom is shaking hands. Many years ago I had a terrible mania attack and I would shake all over hands included. That could have been stress related too.
