I'm lower middle class. I have two older sisters and a younger brother. My parents, my brother and I all live with one of my sisters, her husband, and two small children. I dropped out of school and collect disability. Think what you will, but don't give me crap about it. You don't know me and your words won't make me change my life.
Anyway, I spend the majority of my days daydreaming about an imaginary world where my favorite fictional characters are my best friends, and my favorite fantasies get played out just the way I want them to. I attempt to illustrate and write down my mental escapades, but I never, ever save anything I put to paper. I also spend a lot of time running up and down the sidewalk in the cul-de-sac to help calm me down when I feel edgy.
When I'm not in my fantasy world or out running, I'm on the computer. I go to the same websites every day, but even though it's monotonous, I get very upset if I can't be on it.
So yep, that's basically what it's like to be me.

Your life sounds like what mine was like when I was younger. No, we can't really change someone's life that easily. Besides, who are we to judge?! We all love you just the way you are!

Aw, thank you. You're a great friend.
Sorry for being so defensive, but there seems to be a bad stigma surrounding people who don't finish school, as well as people who collect disability, so I just wanted to defend myself before the holier-than-thous started chewing me up.

I don't collect disability, but I DO want my university disability support services to start teaching Autism to our education majors, since CWU specializes in education. Thank you for calling me a friend! If you ever want to talk, go ahead and PM me!
