| I would suggest consulting a lawyer. Any advice anyone gives you could be not applicable in your case or jurisdiction, so better get some local help from someone familiar with your local laws. |

My mom's family is Dutch and Portuguese. My dad's ancestors include Portuguese, Italian, Western-African and Native South American. If any race is superior over another, I have it covered! Except for Asian. Please don't tell me its Asians.  |

| Had the weirdest night. I'm still a little freaked-out. 1- Got to Grand Central Terminal to take the subway home. Next thing I know a train stops, not all the way into the station yet, and people in the train and on the platform started screaming. Turns out some guy was walking between the train car... |

| I'm in a similar situation. Been in the same job for 29 years now. And have been living in NYC since 1983. My work situation has become unbearable, so I have opted to take early retirement once I turn 55 next year. Problem is my pension will be about 1/3 of my current salary. And I don't plan on tak... |

| I did go semi-homeless for a while. 2 years or thereabouts in the late-90's. I always had a hard time with any form of paperwork, including paying bills. Got evicted for non-payment even though I had the money in the bank. Luckily at work I had my own little office, with a couch in it. My sister let... |

| So my first recommendation is to read through a book called "In An Unspoken Voice" by Peter A. Levine. That should at least provide you a tutorial on the subject of stress. There are two types of therapy that may be of great help to you. They received high marks from other Aspies. These a... |
