My Little Pony:Friendship Is Magic.

Post Reply New Topic

I've seen that episode twice and still jumped.

I don't often tell stories, but I think this will explain why I've been way more into this show than I previously was. Before this incident, I watched only for Fluttershy and the humor. The lessons learned from the show later helped.

I had to get the state of Florida's help to pressure my dad into getting a psych evaluation. The first 4 hours at a mental health facility were fine. However, then I was taken backroom.

I woke up and found that there was nothing familiar (something that alone would set off most aspergians), had no ability to use my coping mechanisms (Apparently a Sony Walkman mp3 player and an acoustic guitar are a weapon but a f*****g telephone behind a desk isn't), no music to calm myself, no music to play, and art and writing only help me so far, they don't take me completely out of reality.

But that was only half the problems. The food was awful, so I basically starved while I was there; the acoustics basically made the sound be always in a way you heard EVERYTHING, yet they allowed no music for BS reasons; the others were freaked out by me and as such bullied me; and I had only so much I could do to calm myself. It got so bad they forced me to take mood stabalizers...which causes hallucinations. I never want to see spiders on the ceiling and feel my skin crawling again, let alone for a whole day.

I had to survive this for 2 days. By halfway through the first day, I had a panic attack from all of this that lasted for 3 hours. No sympathy from anyone.

The thing that kept me sustained was this: Fluttershy's experiences. I thought about them and how she would handle various situations (since me and her are a lot alike, except for my higher masculinity obviously) and used it to cope. There are many examples I could use, but this is getting long enough as is.

I also used the lessons of Twilight Sparkle regarding friendship findings to ease the tension between me and the other drugged out people trapped in that purgatory covered with art. I also found thinking about the subtle humor, puns and not-so-subtle humor to be a nice diversion to the blank horrors around me. It would go from white noise of insanity to a pure amount of chaos, with no true rhythms around. All those acoustics, all the random noises, all the random phone calls that were constantly happening. And no privacy or means to take care of myself (damn locks on EVERYTHING.)

And at least I got the diagnosis to start therapy, though they probably misdiagnosed it. This was the third hardest thing I've ever done, and My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic helped me out where music couldn't.

So what do you think Discord will do this time guys? I think he will try to take over Equestria, but fall under Fluttershy's guidance after she uses the stare.

I never thought I'd say this, but I've stumbled across an awesome fanfic....very funny with a nice plot.

Fluttershy is apparently a gullible fool, and a polylinguist.

Might have been modeled off Bubbles from the Powerpuff Girls

Anyone here watch the documentary? There was mention of Asperger's during a big part of it.

Damn timing lag, was supposed to Say "link please"

And of course it almost typed ink please...

If you're a Mass Effect fan, you'll love this.

Also, if you won't spoil anything, why make that post? Do you see behind the scenes and such?
