Anyone got any experience? Have I told you about the time my son's friend pissed all over his brand new, open Macbook? He was drunk and thought it was a glow-in-the-dark toilet. That was fun to deal with. He couldn't afford to buy my son a new one so I had to text his father to pay. It was around $... |

I admit I touch my phone at red lights to change songs. That's about it. It entertains me more than enough by playing music very loudly as I drive.
On my mind: Raleigh's wet meat. |

It's very common for autistic people to also have ADD and/or ADHD. I'm diagnosed with all three. Hyperfocus is part of ASD but we can also have attention deficits. The problem is that we can't control which things get our attention. When I'm engrossed in hyperfocus my house could catch fire and I wo... |

I have Selective Mutism and don't like speaking, in general, even when I can. I find speech physically exhausting and I get stressed out because my mind and thoughts are so much faster than my verbal language. I don't think in a linear way either because of synaesthesia and ADHD etc., so my thoughts... |

My brother is also a geriatric nurse. He's spoken about the 'creative response' as skibum said. I'm sure that's good advice in some cases, but my mother's most troublesome delusion is that my brother was shot and killed in her hospital room on Monday night last week. I can't go along with that. She... |

He hurts her physically? 8O Has the school notified his parents of this? You'd hope they already know? I might ask the school what steps they've already taken to address the situation with his family. Maybe if the school officials are decent they could arrange some sort of meeting with you and the o... |

We got our money's worth with her, that's for sure. I'm starting to feel sick myself and we have Les Mis tickets this week. Last time I had Covid it was Elton John. Her TV doesn't work in the private room. She has absolutely nothing. They admitted she'll be the least / last cared for patient because... |

It's Covid.
We're going to have to pay a full-time nurse to stay with her in full PPE, in hospital. I'm not allowed in anymore and she's still hallucinating. |
