| Being confrontational about it won't help anyone and will probably get you kicked out. Referring to her as a b***h constantly isn't great, either. If you don't like her, go see someone else. If she's the only one you're able to see, think for a minute about the fact that she has devoted her life to ... |

| I'm not sure if this is obscure in the States, but here in Australia I don't know anyone else who's watched it: Take Shelter, starring Michael Shannon and Jessica Chastain. LOVED it |

| Little bit of back story here... I've been taking the anti-depressant, Pristiq, for several years now to help with an ongoing depression and anxiety problem. After watching our daughter suffer with anxiety over the past year and a bit, I realised early this year that I haven't actually been depresse... |

| I'm 40 and about to start the diagnostic process, I have a 13 year old daughter also about to start the process, and our 10 year old son was diagnosed as Asperger's when he was 5 or 6.

| I hate sunny days, too, but not for the same reason you do. I don't like hot weather, I LOVE rainy weather, and I dream of living somewhere snowy and cold. I don't have the whole 'the world is passing me by' thing that you seem to have, and I'm thankful for that. I'm happiest at home by myself, watc... |

| Getting the support you need is precisely WHY you need the diagnosis. Once our son's school had the official diagnosis they bent over backwards to support him. Without it, they COULDN'T do anything, because that's how beurocracy works. Unless they have the paperwork, they are powerless to help. I co... |

| Only all the time :) My kids (son is Asperger's, daughter in the process of diagnosis) both procrastinate terribly, too. As a parent I try to motivate them, but since I have no interest in the things they procrastinate on (I'm also in the process of being diagnosed) I find it hard to be very enthusi... |
