I learned that there is really no point going on as the suffering will never end and only gets worse. I must be some sort of masochist for not taking my own life. I'm just a glutton for punishment :roll:

This is not a cry for help.

Spraying your clothes with vodka can make them smell better, since vodka kills odor-causing bacteria on the spot.

I learned that all of my local OT facilities for adult autism / Sensory Processing Disorder are designed for children with autism, and they look like three ring circuses inside with bright colours and bouncy balls. :?

Fact 1: People with green eyes are very uncommon. There are only 1-2% of people in the world who are green-eyed.

Including myself :oops: :oops:

In France the guillotine was the preferred method of execution until 1977.
