| Sorry for late reply. Ive been away camping and making the most of the end of summer here. I think I have a bit of a hybrid accent now. In Australia when I talk people say "are you a pomme' (slang for English) but when I last went to UK I had people asking where I came from!! ! That was a bit o... |

| Mrs Peel, 'what are we supposed to f*****g do?' ! !! !! lol! It seems we spend too much time trying to keep NTs happy and it appears all the overthinking and trying we do it seems to rarely come back. I'm sick of it too and although part of me feels like I want 'friends' to keep the 'alone' feeling ... |

| I'm allergic to cats and dust. We have three cats and this place is the dustiest (sp) place I've ever lived in. I take Symbicort twice a day for my asthma and most nights I take Rhinocort (nasal spray) before bed. I have noticed a huge difference when I sleep if I have an air purifier going. I've h... |

| I should add that my 2nd girlfriend is an Aspie who found out she was casein intolerant while we were together. She found some of her autism issues got better after she started avoiding milk / Ahhh, that's interesting. I think it's interesting how they are now saying your gut flora can effect mood.... |

| I dont personally have any food allergies that I know of (unless being lactose intolerant counts. But Im 'intolerant' to a lot of foods really) but I have a good friend who is and I cant imagine having to deal with that. He's allergic to eggs, chicken, turkey, cinnamon, treenuts, peanuts, and one o... |

| I'm lactose intolerance, I also have asthma which I'm taking Montelukast for. Many say autism have problems with gluten, I will do allergytests about 2 weeks and find out if it's more. Good luck with tests. I tried Montelukast a few years ago. In Australia it was quite expensive and I didn't notice... |

| Thanks Cafeaulait, as I'm sure your father must have been. I read an article once on the importance of good father role models and how that can help with good choices for partners we pick. How subconsciously were are comparing future mates with our fathers! I'm not sure how true it is but I know how... |

| Everyone accepts that's what it is. They get why I'm annoying and weird and fall apart. They can see the label fits. But they still don't see how ****ing hard it is every single day. They don't understand the alienation. The overload. The overwhelm. Or how much of every single day goes into trying ... |

| Thank you Renaeden. It's a view in Tasmania from a friends house. Tassie is lovely although I liked WA when I went there too once. Winter can be a bit long but after spending a winter in UK again Ive told myself I am never whinging about our weather again! The best thing about Tasmania is not too ma... |

| I agree with Ranaeden, something to look forward to. I also like it when I'm up on housework and cooking so I can not worry about that so I can concentrate on my special interest. I love my dogs... I like to see my children happy... I love moments when I drink nature in and forget all the stuff in m... |
