| Thank you for posting this. Unfortunately a lot of my stimming involves chewing, the ends of my fingers are extremely calloused from chewing/fussing over certain spots and I haven't found anything to substitute. My dr actually suggested baby teething rings ugh :oops: but it didn't do any good and I ... |

| Had only one removed, as it was the only one that wasn't content to just stay tucked away in my jaw and not bother anyone. Back in 2007 I think. Couldn't afford to go to an oral surgeon at the time but I did have a fantastic dentist that skillfully cut the little bugger out. Wish I had listened to h... |

| I used to work in retail and corporate was unbelievably pushy about the exact kind of customer service that causes me to leave a store ASAP. It's not just about deterring shoplifters (which absolutely does not work- these people will do it right in front of you) but selling more stuff and a concept ... |

| I don't really get the concept of fashion and I've never understood the why or how certain things fit together or why some things don't go together (or why I should be concerned with whether or not someone approves of my choice in attire). In my mind I have to wear something and many times function ... |

| I wear makeup on occasion but I don't think it lends to coming off less autistic or different in any way. I like to wear makeup sometimes because I like the way it looks, but I've never really understood or grasped how it's supposed to work or be applied. |

The worst part of those dreams was the zombie customers ruining the seasonal displays I had carefully built/arranged and I would try to fix it, as they were swarming.  |

Once a week. Twice if it's one of those hot, humid days. I know that a lot of people are going to think that's gross, but truly, I don't sweat much and I don't typically smell like anything, so, I don't see any point as long as I maintain washing my hands at appropriate times.  |
