| Hopefully I can hang in there a little longer. I live in a northern place that is dark, cold, and wet. Depressing, and financial worry amplifies it. I feel a tiny bit better. Thanks for your support. |

| I probably should go to the ER, but I am scared of the cost since I no longer have health insurance. I am glad I came here, it helps. Thank you. |

| I am so frustrated with my job situation, and just work in general. I am 32, male, in the USA, and experience Aspergers among other things. I just do not want to work just to pay the bills. Doing work I don't care for just to pay the bills is just too much for me. Is disability an option for me anyo... |

| Work has gone poorly and it has been a struggle because I am not given full time hours, I get the "leftover" grunt work, and now a boss who does not fit into the company culture at all! I just want to call it quits. I have worked so hard overcoming my challenges and being a good worker. Management h... |

Hi!
It has been awhile since I was on Wrong Planet. When I remembered WP, I was so happy to be back with others that experience ASD. I like science and electronics.
Cheers!

| It really is fascinating here in a place like Juneau, Alaska. We are surrounded by steep mountains and glaciers with the Juneau ice field on the other side of the mountains. We are right on the Inner Channels on the mainland, where mountainous islands block the maritime air giving us colder temperat... |

| That is exactly what I like to do. Maybe we could start a thread talking about weather and climate. I always thought it would be fun to print out a long range forecast and compare it to what actually happens in different geographical areas. It would be neat to see where it is the most and least diff... |

| Yeah, looking at statistics and attempting to predict the long range weather patterns would be a fun hobby for now. I like examining the different micro-climates where I live and trying to figure out why the temperature and precipitation varies widely over short distances. I always look forward to a... |

| Since I was 5 I have had a fascination with weather. I love to look through all the weather statistics for all sorts of places in the world. Is there anyone else has a special interest with weather data and how weather and climate works? I wonder how I can put such a special interest to use. By the ... |

I feel a compulsion to talk much more about this special topic or interest on my mind. Our special interests just sne... |

| The parallel world of fear, the depression, the anxiety, the isolation. I know there is great potential buried under all that, sometimes my aspergers seems like a scary inconvenience, a curse. My brain often feels like it is on fire. 29, single, lonely, exhausting all resources to keep up this chara... |

| It's nice to own the movie now and I can watch it whenever I want. The movie describes my life, and gives me hope when I watch the movie all the way through. It is fascinating to watch the movie with the director commentaries. |

| You are important. So are other people, especially if they are in trouble. You have a tender heart, but you know how to establish and keep personal boundaries. You are empathetic and compassionate, but you also believe that it's best if people solve their own problems and learn to take care of thems... |
