Are they talking about actual Autism tho (the real Autism, where you can see the difference in the brain in a scan, like Temple Grandin for example, you can see her visual cortex is very developed), or about all these cases I have heard about of people who thought their child was autistic, but when... |

I was born 3.5 months early. I never saw third trimester. |

I'm very backwards, I wear shoes inside- usually in the afternoon, for when/if I have to go somewhere- but I like to be outside barefoot. I love feeling grass, asphalt, roads, the creek and forest... I just have to be mindful of where I step. |

I like: I'm still here, Welcome to my life, and I'm just a kid
Perfect ( by simple plan) might fit if you think of "dad" as an allegory for society.
This is war by 30 seconds to mars doesn't apply, but I like it.
Son of sorrow is another one I like, but I don't think it applies. |

I'm struggling to decide how to answer your very heartfelt questions. It isn't easy for a lifelong Aspie who struggles to do Empathy. Bolshie b*****s with attitude will, one way or another, find a place for themselves in life's rich tapestry. Age doesn't really come into it. What you need is attitu... |

It's entirely possible the information I was dealing with is incorrect, or that my math is off, but ASD went from 1.36% to 1.45% in ten years. That's the slowest epidemic I've ever seen. |

You misunderstand - the phrase 'bolshie b***h with attitude' is, from me, high praise. How is it high praise? Also, I get this a lot too, normally from adults, but sometimes older teens. I dislike it in the extreme because age is irrelevant to what I am usually saying, and attempting to discredit a... |

So what exactly is your plan to accomplish your goal? How will you get the money, who will represent you, which company/show/movie will you work with? How will you deal with fame if/when you do receive it? Do you intend to make a career out of it, or just do a few movies/episodes? You need to have t... |

Normally, most people would agree, but I don't want to lose my job and if I had to do both and have no free time, I might go into my dark place again. When I was a freshman in HS, I almost tried to hurt myself because I was so upset from studying all the time and not having fun. Plus, I was traumat... |
