| When threads with questions like this appear I try to give an answer based on what has worked very well for me. It may not work for everyone but empirically it has definitely worked for me.

| It is not false though. But it is false that he said "Water is not a Human Right and therefore, it should be privatized" as you'd quoted him as saying. You're trying to move the goalposts to suit what you'd alleged. I did not say that the quote is true. The quote is false but his intentio... |

| 20 years ago, long before I got a formal diagnosis for autism, I spent one year with weekly therapy sessions. The psychologist didn't strictly follow one method religiously. A lot of it was psychodynamic but it was also a portion of CBT in the mix. The psychologist said that I might be autistic but ... |

| It is really not appropriate for a teacher to arrange duel fights with swords in the classroom. It is not the dumbest thing I have ever heard, but high on the list. |

| When I was a kid there were different kind of food that I really didn't like, but I never really had a choice but to eat what was served. You could say that I learned the hard way not to be picky about food. When it comes to pain and fatigue I am to a large extent able to in the same way override it... |

| Maybe practising some kind of mindfulness meditation could be helpful. It can help you to be able to step back and observe these emotions instead of being taken over by them. Then instead of "being angry" you "feel anger" and have a choice about how to react to the feeling. It ta... |

| There are some people whose personalities are so magnetic that it compensates for their lack of attractiveness. I don't think it possible for such a person to be on the autism spectrum, though. I think if you have a certain magnetic personality it actually makes you (physically) attractive even if ... |
