My mom almost never lets me complain about stuff! She doesn't understand that I NEED to complain! If I don't vent, I can't calm down properly! I just had almond milk that was all watery because they sealed the cap too tightly and of course the carton doesn't pour properly. My morning was ruined and... |

Loud or unexpected sounds create a sense of urgency for me. I wish I could just wear noise canceling headphones all the time because I love the peace that comes over my body when I have them on. Unfortunately I can’t do this because I have to appear normal at work and am embarrassed of the whole si... |

Aspies are also said to often have an "out of sight, out of mind" thing going on. Chores are sometimes out of sight. So I bake a loaf and leave it to cool in the kitchen. Next thing I know, it's bedtime, I take my cup into the kitchen and see the loaf, which needs slicing and bagging up b... |

Hi: First of all, your words have power. The more that you tell yourself that you are unemployable, the more you are going to believe that. I have been unemployed for close to 10 years after applying for jobs and I get social security disability so even the American federal government agrees with m... |

If your father is going to provide you with alternative accommodation, is it really so bad?
He is good in one respect. When he kicks you out, he does it in a reasonable way that won't cause unnecessary harm. |

Why do you actually want to live with your parents?
When I felt ready, I moved away from my (single) mother not because I disliked her but because I felt I wanted to make my own way in the world.
Haven't you ever desired the same thing? |
