| Happens all the time, or else groups go quiet in the breakroom at work when they see me. I figure part of the time it's my paranoia, but a good part of the time it's clear they think I'm weird. especially when I fall over my own feet. They enjoy that with gusto. |

| Parents have been giving their nine year old autistic son medical marijuana and have seen promising results I tried that on my own when I was 13. It didn't work. I havn't touched the stuff since 1991 because it makes me paranoid and very self conscious about my weirdness. It has a similar effect on... |

| This random poking thing-have you explained to your father that it bothers you? Some of us have issues about being touched suddenly. I had to explain this a few times to my family members, because they would do that type of thing to try to get my attention. They didn't realize that I was holding bac... |

| I used to get sick migraine headaches and throw up a lot. They thought it was motion sickness at the time, but the headache part was horrible. They would often have my big sister clean me up, and she was actually nice about it. It was the worst when I was about 7, I didn't know how to tell them my h... |

 My favorite things to read were a set of encyclopedias and a dictionary when I was a kid. Also a guide to tree identification. I still love things like that. |

| It always strikes me how diverse we all are: I could do a little algebra but couldn't do geometry. One of us was afraid of plants and I was obsessed with trees. Someone else could tie their shoes at an early age, and I was 8 before I could tie mine. Lots of differences. By contrast people not on the... |

I bet she wishes she still had hers. I will have to ask her what became of it. She still loves old dolls. We come from a long line of packrats, and she may still have it.
