I'm not a guy

I forgive people in my mind but my body carries tension and doesn't let go

Words play over in my mind years after they're harshly spoken to me. I still clench up at things my mum said to me 2 and a half years ago. There are nights that I need music quietly playing in the background in order to sleep. Sometimes I hear things that were said to me when I was 10 or younger. I haven't told anybody. I don't think parents realize what they do to their autistic children sometimes. I closed my eyes last night and visioned a teenage girl running into the spare bedroom screaming, "Mum's going to beat me with a stick because I'm crying and howling, bent over like an animal!"

I'm sorry you're dealing with those feelings. They're very common for people with autism but, of course, that fact doesn't make it easier to endure, nor does it make your hurt feelings mend overnight. I'm the same way. I ruminate about everything and it's getting out of hand.

It's almost time to get up and I'n not even asleep yet.

Have a good day
Isabella

Feel invisible and left out and lonely and etc cetera

This is "As Good As it Gets".

What do you expect?

San Diego was so homophobic

Nobody is going to hire, befriend, or marry me

If they do, then fired and annulment and ghosted soon thereafter

The current counselor told me that the professional treatment for personality disorders is dialectical behavioral therapy

That costs 100 bucks an hour

And I am 35, not seven

"You can't teach an old dog new tricks"

Yes you can but learning takes more energy for less product when you are older

According to neuroscience

:D


Precious lil "people's " favorite words

:roll:

Friend
Ok
Huh
What
Sorry
How are you doing?
Do you have a question
Are you ok
Good
Cool
Sucks
Need
Why
Like
the speaker refers to himself or herself as "people".
Should
Right (correct, entitled)
Deserve
May I help you
Where were you born
Are you a boy or girl
Why are you smiling



Granted I crave friendships but that is not happening

Precious lil "people" act like they are wise, cool, smart, awesome, innocent, entitled


The problem is their attitude

They make vague and misleading statements

That are not factually correct

They attempt to take way too much authority

And no, I'm not being treated like a child because I've been acting like a child - most children wouldn't deliberately hurt themselves, the supervision would be to prevent them from doing it accidentally.

Whew - it feels good to have a little vent every now and then.


you express your feelings and opinion well here - yes, venting is great and i'm glad you're not suicidal now. can you let your parents know some of this? would they be open to positive change in your relationship?

I just realized something.

Peanuts are not nuts. They are beans/legumes.

Americans put peanut butter on toast.

Therefore, Americans have been consuming British cuisine this whole time.

Last week my mom was telling me about a play she and my dad went to. It was "The Happy Prince", a story by Oscar Wilde. My dad had there was something familiar about the play but he couldn't put his finger on it. But my mom remembered that there was a cartoon TV special that used air at Christmas when my brother and I were little kids. My mom didn't really want us watching it at first because the ending is kind of sad. The little swallow in it dies and the prince statue is stripped of his beauty and gets melted down (but they both go to heaven and live in eternal bliss due to the sacrifices they made to help people who were poor and suffering). It's kind of weird that they always showed it at Christmas since it really didn't much of anything to do with Christmas, except for its "spirit of giving" message and the spiritual ending.

And I ain't got nothing to contribute to the solar system

Positively

Not enough to justify the carbon footprint

A long time ago, someone should have done the community service of exterminating my worthless corpse

And gotten Nobel Prize

And a dollar for dollar tax deduction, for the amount of the retail value of the carbon footprint saved

Discount, coupon, sale

I've complained to them about the inconvenience of having things like my medications and scissors kept away from me and explained to them that the thought to misuse these items had never even crossed my mind before they mentioned possibly restricting my access to them, but they probably figure it's better to be safe than sorry. Actually my relationship with my parents is pretty good overall, I'd say. I think they just don't really know how to handle this situation any more than I do, and they're trying to do the best they can. I vent sometimes, but I don't actually bear any ill feelings toward my parents - just sometimes specific things they do (but not in this case, this is frustrating but I think I understand). Probably it seems like I have a much worse relationship with my parents than I actually do because it's mostly the negative stuff I put here, since the positive stuff is perfectly fine to express in person :)

When Americans eat beans with cut-up hot dogs in them, they usually call it franks and beans, but in Canada we usually call it beans and wieners. I don't know why, but we just do.
