| I know it can be done. I'm doing it. You say it took you 10 years, so I take it you will agree with me when I said it was a gradual process. Where I took issue was the OP suggesting that if you have any problems at all and can't immediately snap out of any funk you may happen to be in, you are a whi... |

| Stop saying "I am a junkie" and "I am a pathetic waste of life" because if you keep repeating this over and over in your head it'll become a self fulfilling prophecy. Start saying, "I'm an intelligent girl with lots of potential" and "I have a long life ahead of me with ups and downs but I will get... |

| Of course, you are an aspie, it is in your nature to seek out knowledge. What sorts of things do you like to learn about? What sort of art do you create? Why do you think it isn't good enough? What do you think you can do to improve it? I like to learn about lots of things. Animals, astronomy, the ... |

| If you are capable of feeling ashamed of your habit, then you are capable of getting help. If you really do have a drug problem, then I implore you to seek treatment for it. There are many options available to you. |

| Sometimes. Sometimes finding similar opinions is rare. I don't believe it's a requirement to be friends with someone though. I guess you are saying that no one has sought you out to be your friend. Perhaps you should try seeking some of the other people on this forum out. We aspies are shy, you know... |

| You make it sound so simple. A lot of us suffer from depression that makes it extremely difficult to find the motivation to do anything. It isn't a simple matter of just getting up and doing something. It also doesn't help to have people calling us b*****s and saying it's our own fault our lives are... |

I have a great deal of respect for anyone who has the passion of their conviction to argu... |

| There is no one in the world you are required to satisfy but yourself. What anyone else thinks of you is entirely irrelevant. If you have truly done as little with your mind as you say, then I would imagine you have a great deal of free space, and could learn very quickly whatever topic you chose to... |

| Argument is how the best decisions are made. You shouldn't feel bad if people disagree with you. You should feel happy that the disagreement is bringing you both to a more rational conclusion. |

| Syd Barrett created some of the most memorable music of his generation. Anyone who can come close to that should die happy regardless of how the rest of their life works out. Why are you so convinced you're worthless? |

| I know it is difficult to create things that are good and that are interesting. It takes time, effort, training. I suppose as interested as I am in hearing what people want to create, I also want to see them, if they truly wish to do so, make their visions a reality. It takes time, but if you have s... |

| What do a few atoms among the approximately 10^25 in your body have to do with you? Very little, unless they happen to be part of a DNA molecule, or perhaps among those determine which of the neurons in your brain fire and when, or perhaps one of those ATP molecules powering the sperm cell that fert... |
