| what a bizarre article, whoever heard of an autism-specific medication? did they confuse this with ADHD medications maybe?? also, I know I'm late to the party, but I'm also 44 and haven't been officially diagnosed with autism (though I realized I was autistic in my 20s). The reason for this is that ... |

| That said I think a lot of music can be downloaded for a fee, or you can get a physical copy...weirdly CD's are falling out of favor but Vinyls have actually gained attention....so you could get a vinyl record of a band you like, but won't work unless you have record player so if you go that route ... |

| I could talk about this at length, but I'll try to be brief: 1. Absolutely, yes, autism can be misdiagnosed as BPD, and I believe this is extremely common for autistic women especially. 2. BPD is in many ways a catch-all diagnosis, like fitting square/triangular/hexagonal pegs into a round hole, and... |

I like 'Possession' by Sarah Mclachlan. some guy who was obsessed with her sent her letters saying what he'd like to do to her. she turned it into a song. he tried suing her, but then he killed himself.
true story and a great song.  |
