Welcome to the forums
I'd love to read what you have to say, but a long text without paragraphs is too hard for me. |

I like the idea of a relationship but not the reality. I've been in two relationships in the past and both partners wanted to hug me, hold hands with me and sleep next to me. I don't mind hugging for a few seconds but I don't like prolonged hugging. I don't like hand-holding at all because my hands ... |

No, it's not a gift. That's just something people like Grandin tell themselves as a form of consolation. In reality, the academic achievements of autistic people are usually done in spite of, not because of autism, unless they have highly unusual savant skills. |

I don't like any religion, but I prefer Jews to Catholics. Jews tend to keep themselves to themselves, but Catholics try to interfere in the lives of LGBT people and women seeking abortions. If Catholics didn't try to interfere with other people's freedoms, non-Catholics would like them more. |

Do you get driven in a rage by certain noises? A rage or distress so intense that you can't sit still and simply must do some repeated body movements to cope? The sound of babies crying causes me distress - not because I care about the baby's suffering, just because I can't stand the noise. If a ba... |

I'm 28 but everyone assumes I'm about 23. I don't fast and, although I'm now trying to reduce this behaviour, I have been eating plenty of chocolates and other sugary/fattening foods over the years. |

Citalopram, fluoxetine and mirtazapine. The latter was the only one that helped; SSRIs make me worse. |

Well I was diagnosed in 2014 so I do not have a diagnosis of Asperger's. And even if I did, Asperger's is still Autism and if my diagnosis were Asperger's I would still have the social awareness problems that I have. I was diagnosed in 2017 and my diagnosis was Asperger's, not autism. Not everyone ... |

Amazingly, this isn't new. They used phages in the Soviet Union, and they've been used for centuries in India. There's a river in India that is thought of as 'holy' because it cures infections. Scientists investigated it and found it to be full of phages. Peptide phosphorodiamidate morpholino oligom... |
