| Like Brivae said: Your life should be spent doing things that make you happy. We in general don't necessarily like the same things or feel the same way as other humans ( :wink: ), but that doesn't make our lives less meaningful. You are not defined by this one aspect of who you are, although I do ag... |

| That was a very nice post, touching even. Well laid out and ordered. However, it was not written for me and so is very light on important details: What situation(s) specifically made you feel inferior? Was it because she was talking about things she had done that you hadn't, for example? From what y... |

| It appears that the onus here is on you. You must decide how much effort it is worth to pursue this relationship. There are alot of books regarding autism and relationships with those on the ASD spectrum on this website (even if you only use it to find the names and synopsis of such works): https://... |

| I'm going to disregard the notion of 'natural remedies' here; a common complaint of people with ASD is some form of gastrointestinal issue (cramps, gas, upset stomach etc.). This could in some way be linked to the limited diet which is also common, in one form or another, in people with ASD. Especia... |

| OK. However, there have been alot of studies on this already (at least insofar as the individual ingredients), I've already linked some in my previous replies (e.g. the fumic/humic acid one, which was a small-scale study to determain whether this could potentially remove heavy metals from the blood ... |

| It is entirely up to you, but please: Choose Wisely I'm not sure how you would be able to detox either the kidneys or the liver, or why you would want to do only one at a time? Kidney detox = drink more water and eat less processed foods. Liver detox = eat less fatty and processed foods, drink less ... |

| I can't see where you're from based on your profile, but I'm going to guess somewhere in the US. In the UK, alot of American churches are seen as a bit cultish (e.g. Mormonism), so I'm not sure what kind of answer you might get from my suggestion. However, I think that, if you haven't already, it mi... |
