| I only have 1 amygdala (left). My right was removed a few years ago because of a (non-cancerous) tumor in it that I was born with. Not the same as River or the studies already quoted, however from my own experience I would say: I had difficulty regulating fear (terrible anxiety most of my life) with... |

| I used to be. It's a good place to start if you want an IT or systems administration career, and you'll learn a lot about troubleshooting and how to work in a real IT department. For the bad, what's bad depends a little on you. You'll deal with a lot of different people all the time asking different... |

| 30mg isn't inherently a bad dose. I personally used to take 15mg a long time ago, stopped for a while, and am now back on at 5mg to see if it helps something.

| IT consulting - mainly network and systems admin. I work remotely from my house. Most of my interaction with customers is via email or chat/skype which is hugely helpful. My customers don't know about my AS, but the most of the other consultants I work with do so if I have a really epically bad day ... |

| I'm also veg, and a lot of the stuff bison mentioned is huge in my diet as well. How do you feel about lentils or chickpeas? Those make good additions and there's a lot of fairly simple stuff you can do with them. A lot of times too I'll take a can of some decent soup, I like Amy's if you can get th... |
