| Hi, I am self-diagnosed possibly ADHD/Aspergers with an official bipolar diagnosis. I work with young autistic girls and I really enjoy the work I do (positive behavior supports). We are in-home one-on-one. I would like to gather suggestions on how to go about introducing autism to my clients becaus... |

| Am I the only one with a serious issue regarding "security" in stores making backpack wearers take off their bags and leave them out in the open? I am a pretty chill person who has learned that customer service folk have to follow policies, but I ride the bus and I work very hard as both a... |

| I should clarify that I'm a paraprofessional, going to be a registered behavioral technician in a couple of months. Then I'll pursue a Master's and become a behavioral analyst, who oversees the people who work directly with the kids like I currently do. |

| It's my true secret weapon. I get the kids I work with because I know how they're feeling when they act certain ways. I'm one of the least experienced and best therapists on the team, and probably the youngest too. I felt so much relief when I found out about it, and I really don't consider it a pro... |

| Thanks, haha. I'm reaching out here because people actually seem to get the gravity of my discovery and the implications of a hidden neurological "disorder" throughout my life. |

| I want them to be happy for my discovery about AS. I want them to be proud of me for my accomplishments. I want my dad to come home and stop being a junkie and take care of my little sisters. I want my mom to stop crossing the f*****g boundaries I set because I hate her boyfriend and anyone else she... |

I had a dream about my dad, and woke up wondering if he was talking to me for the last time.
I'm really not suicidal, I just wanted someone to notice that I need friends, or some sort of support from people. I guess sad faces are in the cards and not much else. |

| I'm actually a behavioral therapist for individual kids, in-home. I would do anything to keep my job, including suppress my anger. I just don't think it's healthy, but I don't really even have time to get a therapist, even if I had the money. I'm going to, after I have a car, but I really just wish ... |

| I mean, I posted on Facebook saying I want to kill myself. Sure, I only have 37 friends and half of them are rabbit enthusiasts I've never met, but I expected something. Nada, as per usual. It makes me want to cut, to slam my head into the wall, to kill someone so they can finally understand that I ... |

Two months ago, I experienced a truly terrible training day when I was expected to practice with a group of other new hires and then be evaluated individually by a teacher, pretending another ad... |
