| For most people it's socializing. For me, it's about getting as off my face as possible and swaying around to some good music for a while. I'm the introvert at parties who you see just getting wrecked and eating all the food, but not talking to many people. And if the music isn't very good? I just d... |

| Some aspects of myself I do like, alot of aspects of myself, I really, really don't. So overall, no, I don't like myself at all. I have redeeming qualities, but they're overshadowed by my flaws and the stuff that goes on inside my head. |

| I'm not isolated in the sense that I have nobody around to talk to, but I do feel isolated in the fact that I don't relate to anybody and get little out of social interactions, if anything at all. I feel isolated for many other reasons as well. I predict alot of isolation in my future due to many fa... |

I've had laughing gas... But not at the dentist.
I went through a phase in my late teens and very early 20s. Lol. |

| 1. You come off as unfriendly and you're an as*hole to others. Nah, never really been like this. 2. You come off as strange and odd to others. True. But I adapt that strange oddness into a persona which makes many "NT" (I hate using that word) people just see me as the quirky music geek. 3... |

| Being proud of being autistic is kind of ridiculous, being ashamed of it is ridiculous as well. It's neither a badge of honour or shame. It just IS. |

| If people want to keep their history, they should put these statues in some sort of museum or keep images of them in a book. This is causing friction without a doubt and that may not be a good thing, but at the same time these statues do represent a very painful time in human history for many minori... |

Woah 2010... This thread sure got necrobumped.
But I'll contribute anyway. Usually I recover from meltdowns by just hiding in my room or lying down. Either that, or I'll drink alcohol or possibly even codeine linctus and stay out of peoples hair for a while. My coping mechanisms aren't good. |

| Extremism is extremism. I consider myself a liberatarian (no, not tea party MAGA style liberatarian) centrist who believes elements of both the left and right have validity. I find that now, the radical elements of the left have gotten so extreme that they're now similar to the very people they're s... |

| I think whistleblowing in the context of a corrupt organisation or government is a good thing. Authority is something that always needs questioned and challenged, not just accepted at face value. Whistleblowers are hated by society because governments aren't fond of people who challenge them - then ... |

One thing I have a disdain for is that sometimes my mother goes over the top with clarifying the things I need to do, but then again I only have myself to blame for that because when I was less... |
