    Did I make a new friend? Feeling clueless

    I'm at college again and I've only been here a couple weeks. I started talking with someone at the table next to me during dinner. He seemed really nice, we talked awhile, and we exchanged phone numbers, but I haven't had a real friend in so long that I feel clueless on what to do. Are we...

    Am I Going Through an Identity Crisis?

    I don't understand myself as well as I thought I did. I don't think I know myself as well as I thought I did.

    Introduction

    Hi, my name is Justin. I joined this forum because I think I'm on the spectrum. After taking the AQ test with a score of 31 and the RAADS-R test with a score of 174, along with finding about how I was when I was a child it seemed to me that how "I am" could finally be explained.

    Need manual for Vivitar Vivicam 8126 digital camera

    And before anyone points out the painfully obvious, I HAVE just had a look on Google and couldn't find anything relevant. The manual that comes with the camera is useless, the text is too small to read even with glasses on. I need to know how to use it to record HD videos. As mentioned I have...
