| Hello! This isn’t a huge problem in my life, but something I do think about. A lot (if not all) of my close friends were diagnosed with ADHD, my partner has ADHD as well. Something that gets under my skin sometimes is that my closest friend as well as my boyfriend sort of dismiss the fact that I hav... |

Some people say it's just an assignment and that the solution is to just do it, but there are steps to doing each assignment along with the stress of not doing an assignment correctly or with enough qualit... |

I might wind up massaging the lotion in for an unnecessarily long time, but at least I'm not shredding my fin... |

| I need some help, guys. One of my worst habits is picking at my skin (primarily my face, but also my back, shoulders, arms, chest and scalp) and I decided that I need to put a stop to it because it hurts physically and harms my self esteem because I have so many scars and red spots on my face. I det... |

| Hi! I'm nonbinary :) I'm not "out" to most people in real life mostly because I'm afraid of being called a special snowflake or a faker or something. It's a bummer not having your identity recognized, but there are supportive people in the world. I don't see why people make such a fuss ove... |

that's a ridiculous statement! i have been notorious in my family for my sense of humor, aspies are some of the funniest people i've met! maybe our humor is too complex for the simple neurotypical mind to understand  |
