Nikki Bacharach, 40, suffered from Asperger's Disorder, a form of autism. She killed herself Thursday night at her condo, said Linda Dozoretz, a spokeswoman for the family."

Nikki, from one Aspie to another, may you find the peace up and out there that you and many of us down here could never find.

The first thread on this.

Sorry.

My Omniscience is wearing off!!

No problem!

I was the head admin of a forum, so I'm used to this kind of thing.

We all must remember though, that this is a very tragic and unfortuante loss, for society as a whole, and especially for the aspie community like ourselves. We should really be aware of what or condition means to us, what it can cause up to feel, and most importantly, never to give up hope, even when all the odds are against us. It's fairly easy to write this off as just "news", but it's a very sad and unfortunate occurance that we must always bear in mind at all times.

may the good Lord bless her and keep her, may his face shine on her and be gracious to her, may he amile upon her and give her peace.

That is too bad.
