| Really, I just want someone who will keep talking to me. Even though I know I'm not that positive, or fun to talk to. |

| I feel like I scare people away because I am screaming for help. If they seem even halfway interested in what's wrong with me, I serve them a 4 page essay of everything that sucks. I just want someone to care so much about how I'm feeling that they ask me questions. Specific questions, and they don'... |

When my legs were hurting really bad, I could move, in fact it was much worse when I wasn't moving. I had to keep walking and it still hurt. I drank allot of w... |

| As an update, I was up the entire night practically balling. It makes no sense, but my legs hurt really bad, like nothing I ever felt before. It felt like growing pains almost. It started with only on leg and lasted a couple hours. I took let's just say probably more ibprofen than necessary, and it ... |

| Right now, I feel really alone. I don't feel like I have any friends who can understand me. I don't understand me. I think I'm currently having a panic attack. But it doesn't feel like ones I've had before, I can actually see straight. I'm breathing hard but I at least feel like I can breathe. I kee... |

| Everytime I make a friend I feel alittle more normal. I feel like now this one person thinks I'm normal enough to hang out with. Then for some reason I always mistake someone wanting to hang out with me for someone actually caring about me. Suddenly I find myself caring allot about this person, some... |

| I kind of think the behavioral aspect of the condition shouldn't be such a big variable in diagnosis. I think your behavior is just a reaction to different things, and everyone reacts differently to different things. I definitely think of the condition as a social communication, and emotional disord... |

| I have been smoking weed every day for about 2 years or so, and I have to say it has its ups and it's downs. The only down really is that I have become to rely on it at this point. Don't get me wrong i'm not too crazy, I smoke once in the afternoon and use it mainly just to relax. It calms me down. ... |

You will never know exactly what it is like to be anyone but yourself. Everyone, NT, autistic, or whatever is completely different. That being said,... |

Well when I w... |

| Not that any of these posts we're spot on to me personally. So much of them resonated with me. I feel trapped, in an endless pile of masks. Everytime I remove the one I am wearing, a different one appears never feeling like the true me. I seriously have no idea what my natural personality is like, a... |
