I felt terrible when I was diagnosed recently. I just hoped I had some kind of anxiety disorder that could be worked on, or I was a latebloomer of some kind. Then I found out that my chances at a normal life are doomed. But it's probably better knowing than not knowing (if it will not cause you to b...

I really don't care. I do find good hair texture, high thickness, high density, good shine and slight wavyness to be of great importance. I have seen great hair in all kinds of colors.

Growing into an (older) adult, it really feels like you become desensitized for romantic feelings. I can no longer feel 'giddy' as when I was younger. The last time I felt a crush or some kind of infatuation is years ago. Perhaps it has to do with the endless rejections and humiliations causing me t...

I disagree. I gladly embrace all the downsides of my Autism because without them I wouldn't have any of my strengths either. Also, I find that most NT adults are soulless compared a typical Aspie (as far as a typical Aspie exists). Most NTs seem to lose their "inner child" early in life, ...

Ummm...what? 1.) who says such a thing would or could be that selective? 2.) I can learn things to compensate....what if removed my memory abilities, my ability to focus or leap to connections ahead of people? Why is this so hard to understand? I am 55 years old.

So you DON'T want to be able to process social information efficiently? Honestly, I see autism purely as a lack of something. It is a handicap, and it adds nearly nothing. Without autism, I'm sure I would live a much easier and more pleasurable life, maybe even be a succesful member of society. It's...
