| Hello all, Do you or someone you know collect VHS tapes? I have wondered for a while who is buying VHS tapes at thrift shops? I have a small collection of DVDs that is slowly growing, but I couldn't see why someone would want to watch a VHS tape in this day and age. I can see why someone would want ... |

Can someone explain to me why so many people seem to be against early intervention?
I benefited from speech therapy as well as extra assistance in school. If I didn't receive a diagnosis early on, I wouldn't have received either of those things. |

| Be happy that you don't fit in. Normies are stupid and shallow, why would you want to be like one of them? I enjoy living life on the periphery. I am content with a somewhat solitary lifestyle as I don't need as much social interaction as the average person. However, I do believe maintaining a small... |

| CIVIDA is an option if you are in Edmonton. You pay a discounted market rate. The benefits you receive if you have an autism diagnosis in Alberta - if it causes you challenges working - Alberta has the best benefits in the country. Thanks for your input, 123autism. I wouldn't want to immigrate from... |

| I can't say for certain that there are any specific benefits of using a Sauna for people with autism, but I can attest from personal experience that do enjoy a good Sauna. There are many health benefits that I have heard of, mainly clearing toxins out of the the body by sweating. I remember when I w... |

| 28 is what it is. It's very, very young in the grand scheme of life. You're still in your athletic peak years. If I was 28 again I might train more seriously as a runner because I'd still have more years ahead of me where I can absorb hard quality training. I'm 40 now and mentally I haven't given u... |
