| I'm actually really good at budgeting and saving money, but being homeless and a couch surfer right now. Using someone else's home, I am struggling to save money when I feel compelled to pay the people letting me stay for free. Which means I am always buying extra. If I was just buying for myself li... |

| What makes them think they're pushing me to leave? I'm having a great time, doing just a little work in order not to get too bored, and surfing the web... She can't complain because I won't listen. I could continue like this forever... If you're not doing your work, your management has every right ... |

| I love cooking. I'm always learning new recipes, and I have been complimented many times before. I am the guy who comes to a pot luck, always promises the roommates I'll bring some back for them, but there is never any leftovers afterward. I have been told by many I should have went to culinary scho... |

| Maybe, and this is a stretch, your therapist is helping by making you think bout what you say. I often repeat information to people when I want them to hear what they have to say. It's a way to get them to think about what they say. Hearing it being deciphered by someone else, should give you a crit... |

What do you consider high functioning?
Technically, as much as its worth, I am considered to have a High IQ, above the cutoff point. But in my day to day living skills, I am considered low functioning.
But I am not special needs nor am I mentally deficient. |

| I actually do stim in public. Not rocking. But they have these things on Amazon; Fidget toys, which means you can carry them in your pocket or your hand and fiddle with them. There's nothing wrong with someone fidgetting with a twisty bendy thing in public. I've gotten to this point, where I don't c... |

I am actually Declined to the State because I don't vote for a specific party because I don't fit any of the parties. I rather fix the problem not the blame and don't want to get into distracting arguments... |
