| I think off of the back of Pet Sounds alone Brian Wilson is easily one of, if not the greatest musicians of the 20th century. I'd struggle to pick a favourite BB song, but Don't Worry Baby gets frequent play time |

| A Hutched Relationship You kept me in that draughty garden shed. Inside a cage of your design I dwelt; The walls of panelled wood, the roof of felt. You gave the bare essentials: Watered, fed- But cheap ill-gotten shavings lined my bed. In childish hotter months it seemed I’d melt, And winters breat... |

| I'm a sixties fan in general, but I've got to save most of my love for The Beach Boys, notably Brian Wilson (genius!). Are there any other fans of the Wilson brothers and co. here? |

Hey guys,
I joined the forum back in 2014, but never really got into interacting with anyone due to never using a forum before.
Well, here I am 3 years later, hopefully it's not too late? |

| I think the use of labelling for diagnosis is useful, especially in acquiring the support you need, but I have noticed that since dropping the whole 'have autism' idea my sense of self has developed significantly. The thing I especially hate seeing is 'he/she suffers from autism'- that really gets m... |

| Since receiving my diagnosis of HFA a couple years ago, I've grappled with the nature of my cognitive make-up. When initialling considering the term 'autism' I thought of a separate entity akin to something such as a tumour. This proved disastrous as it split my existence in two, between 'me' and th... |

| Well after several months, I've been diagnosed with high functioning autism. while it is a sigh of relief, I'm still curious as to what the defining differences there are to Aspergers, and can I accurately describe myself as an aspie? |

| Well today was the day I was kicked out. I went to the local council offices, and I'm going to be accessed for supported living, and I can stay home until then |

| Hey everyone. So I'm in the latter stages of diagnosis, and since I left my last job due to struggling to fit in, I've had a hard time funding work. This in itself I can sort of handle, but now my mum locks me out of the house from 8:30 to 2, and threatened to kick me out unless I got a job. So sinc... |
