| I am the Wolfman. Do you like Chaucer? No. I tried to read Canterbury Tales back in high school along with Shakespeare but the old English was too confusing. I like things I know in terms of syntax. What do you mean by the Wolfman? I like Wolverine and X-men but this was a bit vague. It sounds inte... |

| We don't need to list 36 genders or anything but considering this is a sensitive subject for some, I see no logical reason to make whether gender is revealed or not an OPTIONAL thing when signing up. Why does anyone NEED to know someone else's gender on an internet board discussing autism?? Does tha... |

| I am not one. I used to write and had even sold 2 books to a mid-list publisher (also wrote 7 unpublished ones!) but that has been tainted and I have had writer's block for 5 years. There is no love there, only obligation, expectations, fear and endless second-guessing unable to release into true fe... |

| I was diagnosed with autism at age 3; schizoid Personality Disorder at age 15. You’re an ER nurse. You willingly interact with people and you’ve quite good at it when it’s needed. I don’t sense the “schizoid” within you. I only interact with people at work. I enjoy my patients and my staff but I te... |

| That was interesting, but these "differences" were generalized and not accurate to my (admittedly) untrained eye that is going by a large sample of "anecdotal" evidence from the internet and my own experience, but oddly I DID find two very interesting articles, one of which sugge... |

| You're an uncouth, foul mouthed, non-conforming, drunken sot. You're my kind of people. :P LOL, thank you, you just made my day! :D (I haven't been back since the night of these posts, lol, because I was afraid I'd done or said something horrible while drunk so I deleted notifications of replies wi... |

| I've been crawling through the DSM manuals looking for answers for myself since I was 14, and we were still on DSM-III. I'm 43 now and have seen over 30 therapists over the years, and the Asperger's with alexithymia diagnosis fits very well though it had to be suggested by me 10 years ago to the doc... |

| Hello Can I join in? only you seem to be having a good natter to your self :) I like your name by the way. I'm not sure about Alexithymia, I feel like I know how I feel most of the time but I need time to think it over a bit and often struggle to get my feelings across, but it was only at my assess... |

Have a master's in Creative Writing, taught English Composition for one year to the world's dumbest students, got a nursing certification in 2003, now work as a night shift nurse and love it!

| HEH! This place automatically censors out the "f word." That is so cute. I truly meant no harm and seeing my words astericked made me smile and diffuse my tension. But... I HAVE to try just once more and see which ones work and which ones don't! THEN I will change my behavior to be better!... |

| I'm sorry, but it DOES piss me off that sharing my gender was a "requirement" for joining this sute. What the f**k does it matter, dude? I've always loved the internet because it allowed me to share my words and thoughts. Gender is irrelevant. If you are a specific gender, people WILL make... |
