    Am I an Aspie?

    The reason I am making this is because after a few short replies to a previous post of mine, I decided to list out some of my biggest 'symptoms' that I tend to notice. I myself am only a Junior in high school and I feel as though I do not know enough about this to be able to self diagnose...

    Meltdowns ?

    Since I'm new to this whole world, I'm wondering if what I'm feeling are meltdowns. I know in children it's a lot like temper tantrums and can be loud or just obviously a meltdown. But can they be and contained? Like I feel like I'm melting down, but I'm still walking through the grocery...

    Hello everybody! I'm looking for autistic experiences and feedback to help my daughter with sleeping issues. My 6 y.o. Asd daughter has woken up early (3 am ish) forever. We have seemingly tried everything to get her to sleep later (yes, we have tried later bedtime, etc). She hates being...

    Help. I'm becoming more anxious and angry everyday

    Welp, I need help I guess, for years I've felt the good inside me has decreased day after day and now I can't stand to be around people. I feel very frustrated and cynic with the years. As some of you know I'm an engineering student, it is said that the one I'm taking (electronic) is one of the...

    I'm doing Niacin Therapy

    Watch out, I'm medicinin' all up in here. :fearscream: I suffered terribly with my Midlife Meltdown, and I didn't even know I was an Aspie. While it was a great relief to discover what was going on, and I am proud to be one, it was a bit of a shock to discover that medical science could do very...

    Making others feel better

    Altough it may seem weird for the classic aspie stereotype, sometimes when I see people sad or having a bad time I feel the urge to make them feel better. I don't know if it is because I have had a lot of experience feeling depressed or you know how we aspies can be. I have some friends and as...

    Help!

    Well here goes... please don't reply if you are only going to tell me what a horrible human being I am. How our relationship started was not ideal no, but you can't help who you fall in love with! So, I met the most amazing guy at work, we had been working together for a year before his 40th...

    Is never too late to find yourself?

    A month ago I was a victim of a severe anxiety and a depression. I was lonely, I could concentrate and I was totally lost. For years I tried every single thing my mind could think of, I tried all to alleviate my symptoms. Every single thing I did not help. All the meditation did help...

    Overstimulation through emotions?

    So, ever since I heard about the Intense World Theory it's definitely raised questions because I feel like my emotions are way more intense than what someone else feels and with those intense emotions it's like an overload and I usually shut down and get terribly anxious and depressed and have...

    Need some communication advice.

    So I have a small group of friends who get together to play games and just enjoy the evening on Fridays. One of my friends who I've been friends with since middle school, has aspergers and is causing myself and others to get rather stressed out with different social "missteps". Now I'm as...

    Still, I remain hopeful

    Hi, guys, I haven't posted here in a while. I feel a little depressed lately. Why? I've realized that despite the fact that I have spent my 20s jobless; most of the reasons why I am that way are pretty much outside of my control, I have conceded. Given what I have, the odds have pretty much...

    Does this kind of religion make sense and does anyone agree?

    I'm an entropic-cantheist. I believe in the rules of entropy and entropic followers. These people believe that the rules of thermodynamics, the second law specifically, that the universe has a constant increase in its measure of disorder, chaos, and things we can't control no matter how hard...

    Autism simulation opinions and ideas!

    Hey guys! I didn't know where to post this so here I go. For a big project at my high school I'm going to do a 30 minute simulation/game about autism so people know what it's like. I have Asperger's so I know what it's like already. I was thinking of doing an obstacle course of some sort of...

    I need some advice on this. I've heard many great things about this game, and I would like to play it, but I have some concerns: 1. I have been struggling with depression for a while and sad/depressing things tend to overwhelm me. I've heard that Mother 3 is a great, but sad/depressing game...
