Good for you. I'd be your friend. N'aww. And knowing you, if I said anything abrupt or extreme, you'd take care to ask me if I was alright, and did I mean what I said, or was it just a moment of anger/anxiety. You wouldn't storm off in a huff at the drop of a hat. Well usually I can tell the differ... |

The only thing that's scaring me at the moment is the NHS (which I only hear about here on WP). |

Since when have you ever upset anyone here? :) :heart: I honestly wouldn't know. I seem to upset people in real life just by existing and talking to them. The number of times I've thought a friendship was going well then suddenly they dump me. And if I ask why, they get angry and say I said somethi... |

Thanks Cornflake. Can I help you look, Joe? I could use a new rabbit hole. It was a joke thread someone had posted, titled "is it an Aspie thing to socialise?" It was made when I'd commented on one of those "is it an Aspie thing to [normal human behaviour]?" threads. I was trying... |

Some Brits (with the same regional accent as me) say "scones", others say "scons". It's pronounced SCONES! Rhymes with STONES! |

^My emotions are still working correctly on Sertraline (or overworking, should I say). I think for me mood and emotions were two different things. Before I went on Sertraline my mood would become flat, meaning I'd become easily irritable and react inappropriately, like yelling at a loved one for ask... |

I'd love my ASD to go away. It's a wonder they haven't invented medication to help with some autism symptoms such as sensory issues or something. Not a cure but just medication, like you can get for other disorders such as ADHD and Bipolar. I think I'd feel happier in life if I wasn't so jumpy and n... |

Always think before you complain about a behaviour or quirk of someone, as in make sure you don't demonstrate that behaviour or quirk yourself. Everybody hates hypocrisy, even though sometimes it can't always be helped. Sometimes people forget that they do it or they know they do it themselves but d... |

I'm trying to find an old thread but whenever I type in the known keywords in the search bar, the results only go back to 2015, no matter which method I use. The filtered search feature is crap because if you select the "search for all terms or use query as entered" box it comes up with ev... |

I always used to wonder how big the chances were of me crossing the same path as a guy I really liked who really liked me back, and thinking about it too deeply made me see it as impossible. But it's not impossible, as I know well now. I first met my boyfriend on the bus. He was quite shy and so did... |

This is probably a touchy subject, and I really don’t want to come off the wrong way, but I know there’s a member who makes a thread almost every time there’s a mass shooting in the US, and they usually don’t receive too many responses. Another forum I use just has a general thread about guns that ... |

That happened in a way to my dad --- he parked in a handicap spot in a (used) sports car and got out ----and received a verbal whipping from some folks passing by--- until he pulled out a wheelchair and picked up my 7yo sister from the passenger seat -she had been severely injured in a car accident... |
