| I don't think it's a cause and effect in that order. Yes, some people who wear unfashionable clothes get bullied, but I think the bullying happens for another reason and the clothes may make an easy target. A "cool" person can wear unfashionable clothes and be considered eccentric or star... |

| my 6th grade teacher made fun of me in front of the whole class when he blabbed about how my mom told him I was afraid of the noise of the vacuum cleaner. :oops: That was awful and totally unprofessional! I'm not scared but I quickly get overstimulated/tired by the sound. It's sort of painful to me. |

| My parents also live in denial. There is even more of it, they seem to be totally blind to any unusual traits in their children. Like these informations cannot penerate their minds, they are rejected at the entrance. Now that I'm adult and independent, I learned to accept it. I don't really care. Tr... |

| I quite often don't "feel" the emotions I have. Like not feeling any stress before an exam, only need to go to the bathroom every five minutes. That's because of my low emotional intelligence. Feeling what I really feel required training :D And love is much more than an emotion or a feelin... |

I knew I was different for as long as I remember. But Mom always tried to persuade me that I'm average, not at all different and should just stop being hysterical.
LOL. Now that I see it I want to laugh but it costed me long-lasting mismatched self-identity and reocurring depression. |

| I guess it might be because of the differences in social structure and education system, but... I loved my high school! It was a small, nerdy, science-oriented school which I could choose for myself. Everyone in my class was somehow odd (who normal would choose the chemistry-physics profile?), so be... |

When I was about ten, I believed I got messages from God or something. But then I came down to earth and realised it was just my brain amplify... |

Well, I don't believe in rebirth and can't imagine myself as a vegetarian but sometimes I put a small stone on a top of a pile of stones... just to feel some kind of a connection with other people, I b... |

| It somehow became easier for me, because I was able to choose my way of living and the people around me. I could choose a nerdy high school where I fitted quite well (earlier schools were just the standard ones, not very friendly) and then follow my own path. As I age, I care less and less about &qu... |

| I have somewhat similar issue. I was raised roman catholic, in a quite conservative family. I had a lot of questions, but instead of putting me down, I was encouraged to look for answers in theological works - for quite a lot of smart people had similar questions during the last 2000 years and some ... |
