| My drunk boyfriend coming to bed at 12.30am and waking me up from much needed sleep with his swearing and shouting at me even though I wasn't doing anything. Now I'm wide awake from being disturbed. I was having a cool dream as well, where I was traveling outer space and it was so realistic. My boyf... |

| I have both inattentive type and hyperactive type. I practically have nearly all the symptoms, except the addictions to drink or drugs but I am addicted to other things such as online posting. Impulsivity has always been my main problem. |

| Another rule to try and remember: If you share an autistic trait yourself then it's OK to add to the YMBAAI thread but if you don't share that trait but just put it anyway then you're stereotyping. I learnt this rule quickly in my head before it was too late, when I read someone's post there that in... |

| All I've got to have is just a few sips of alcohol and I feel all weak in my legs and I get terrible dizziness and vertigo. This is why I don't like drinking when I'm out, I don't want to feel unwell when I'm away from the comforts of my own home. Just the thought of it scares me. |

I used to be scared of my librarian at school.  |

| I am more liberal on this matter. I don't like the thought of trying to make gender as a whole become politically incorrect but I don't like the thought of gender pressures being forced upon people either. I want to live in a world where gender exists and is allowed to exist without offending the no... |

| Of course I read your post, Joe. You haven’t commented on any of MY posts here :) Of course you make good sense. Your boyfriend, like my wife, is not the Cat’s Meow in a conventional sense—but is way good enough in the true sense. I've pretty much read every post in this thread. :lol: Shame there's... |

| I don't drink tea or coffee because I don't like it. I do sometimes have honey to coat my itchy throat but it doesn't shift it. It's 7 or 8 hours later and my nose has just about cleared. Now I need to catch up on lost sleep. Hmm fair enough, but also you can make a drink of hot water, lemon juice ... |

| When I was at high school only the really popular girls got boyfriends. So no matter how pretty you were the boys wouldn't be seen dead with you if you wasn't popular. Obviously a few quieter girls got with quiet boys but they were usually the studious types that were mature beyond their years. Othe... |

Ugh, I hate drunk boyfriends. Or any drunk people really. I don't see the appeal of getting drunk. It's idiotic.
Sorry, just my opinion. |

| Ugh, I've been awake all night with another sinus attack. This time it started when I was taking a warm, steamy shower, in a well-ventilated bathroom. So that just proves that there's no real cause of this, it just comes on without warning. My sinuses have been quite clear all week, and I haven't ha... |
