Welcome to Wrong Planet. There is a good Autism film with a Star Trek twist called "Please Stand By". It gets my recommendation.

That is what I want! I want to work in a lab and have nerdy scientist friends. I really want friends like me so I won't feel like the oddball all of the time.


My favorite job was when I worked in a research lab. Everyone was infinitely cooler than me, but working with other scientists was the most mentally stimulating experience.


That sounds so fun!

It must really compound your stresses to have that situation with your family. I hope your sister is more supportive than your parents sound.

L&D at times can be a pit of self-pity and misogyny. PP&R tends to reflect the polarized world we live in, multiplied by the inability to drop things or concede when one's views are reasonably described in an unflattering way.

I don't work in a lab (unless you mean the type that makes music), but maybe I'm eccentric enough to be your friend? And if not, I'd still like to be. :P



She is trying to be supportive. She told me to find a support group so here I am!

Oooh that doesn't sound fun at all.

I love music! It helps me to stay calm if I can handle listening to sound. I'd like to be friends!

Hi there

I'm new and in the process of diagnosis. I am recently taking it seriously that I have autism and it has been overwhelming. I don't have a family that believes me or what I have been going through. They think that there is someone to blame when all I want is help to live my life.

It is all so overwhelming. Especially since I am in school and now live alone. I've been having a really tough time and really want to be understood. I want to talk to people who know what it feels like to be in my shoes. I wa told by my sister to find a support group.. so, here I am.

I am a 26 year old African American woman who loves science and everything science related (except biology). I love science fiction tv shows, movies, games, and book. My favorite character is Spock. I am studying Physics in school.



Hello friend
Are you fond of NOVA? I can sit and watch the NOVA channel for hours on end. I also enjoy cleaning listening to the Voyager Recordings. A lot of the noise on this planet just isn't as interesting to me as what's out there.
Live Long and Prosper



What is NOVA? Cleaning makes me feel super calm! I also like cooking because it feels like I'm experimenting in a lab haha.Would you ever go to space?

It's a PBS produced science series. I've seen them on YouTube and have found it enjoyable :)

NOVA is a program through PBS, that for the longest time when you'd turn on the channel it would just be hours of space footage. It is now a podcast on science topics broadly speaking. Still plenty of space, but not limited to space.

I think so yes I would be open to space travel once it becomes mainstream. Although I'm pretty sure the G forces getting off this planet will have a particularly strong effect on my body given I have a fused spine with two surgical steel herring rods.

Oooo I would like that very much! I like Science shows a lot.

Hmmm hopefully we would create a form of space travel comfortable enough once it becomes mainstream!

Don't be bothered by Pepe. He has a strange sense of humor.
