"Don't live together before you're married."
Sage advice, mom. Didn't your wedding dress have an elastic waist? AHEM! But anyway, I got nothing. Nothing from school, either. Fortunately, I know how to read and like it. |

I'm tired of being told I'm depressed because I'm not grinning like a f*****g loon every time you see me.

| Yes, exactly; those aren't hallucinations, they're more like... hmm... somatization, maybe? Whatever you call it when you experience stress as physical symptoms, like how some kids get tummy aches because they're scared of going to school. Any psychologist worth his salt needs to be able to tell th... |

| The thing is that I don't remember my childhood and I didn't seek a diagnosis until my 20s. Well, do you fit the criteria for Asperger's currently? If you have resistance to change/routine, sensory issues, lack of eye contact... I'd say get an AS diagnosis. An AS diagnosis will carry a lot more wei... |

I have to wonder what it is about our behavior that strikes people as psychotic.
I'll stay me rather than fat and twitchy. Anti-psychotics cause massive weight gain and tardive dyskinesia. |

| Well... looking at ads, I don't have a license and its like you have to for pretty much everything (even if I can't see why). I'm epileptic but even if I weren't, I wouldn't be able to drive because of the sensory bombardment. Then I find something and do the resume. I didn't finish college, so I th... |

| I'm on the fence about whether or not I have this or aspergers. SPD doesn't explain the sensory stuff and lack of eye contact but there are so many things for SPD that I really, really don't fit. My douchebag of a therapist, with whom I'm no longer speaking (he never returns e-mails anyway) kind of ... |

| I got fired for having cancer, not autism, but my boss hated my lack of social skills so who knows... fired for having cancer? If that happened to me, I'd be going to the Human Rights Commission or the Labour board. If an employer did that in Canada, they would have their pants sued off and the gov... |
