A few months ago, my therapist told me she suspects autism. I haven't been tested yet, and my mom and u don't talk about it. So it was odd and when my mom and I were in the car and she said "you have a personality, I haven't thought for a minute you're autistic." That was it. She didn't sa... |

I get people mixed up all the time. It's always embarrassing. It's okay though. You probably won't see those people again, plus, it's not your fault you mixed it up. It happens to everyone, I think. |

I don't know how life is going to be for me. Everything's messed up and not good. My family is constantly fighting, I am temporarily separated from my cat, and life is becoming too much to handle. Nobody seems to understand just how much I struggle. I'm not trying to say I have a poor life, it's not... |

(just a brief summary of the situation) I have had 4 jobs so far. I can't keep going to this job, but I have been told I must. A psychiatrist said she reco... |

I'm not diagnosed, but I didn't give my binky (dummy) up until I was seven +. My mother tried very hard to get me off them, but I have 2 younger siblings and a cousin I lived with. Plus I stole some when she took them away from me. To this day I still toy with my lip. It is embarrassing. |

I get this all the time. It's quite horrible, especially when you live with a lot of other people who don't understand an get upset when you can't communicate. I know you may not always be able to, but maybe you could put on some earphones and lay in the dark. Or maybe pace, or rock. Those help. If ... |

I need to ramble for a moment, as I cannot speak at the time being. Today is the day I always have an appointment on. Today, my mom says I don't have an appointment. I haven't felt well today. Sometimes, I lose my voice. I don't know why, I just am unable to speak. Usually it's in times of distress,... |

I got a new job, which is hard enough. Thankfully, someone I know works with me. But the time interferes with my schedule for school. It's not just that, it's plenty of things lately, I just cant...get it out. Does that make sense? I feel like I'm breaking down. It's getting harder to actually get m... |
