I deeply invest myself in strong emotional bonds with very few people and am undyingly loyal to them. Only problem is I am uncomfortable showing it and come off as distant and aloof. Cosmic irony right there. |

I have to create an image. It usually comes out as a stratified stack: the position of the task in the stack indicative of its priority or order of execution. |

Just do or tell her whatever you need to to get her off your back. If that means dropping the official diagnosis, then do it. I barely knew what AS was when I was diagnosed at 16, and you know what it did for me? Nothing. Being diagnosed means nothing at all, it's just an opinion. There is no defini... |
