| I really wanted to be a resident assistant. I've been working really hard "compensatory learning" perhaps on social capacities with dry wit and charisma to boot. I currently have a job in the campus billiard hall and network with quite a few cool people. A coworker said I'd make a good RA, so I was ... |

| Hey guys. So I'm in a situation as an adult where much of my issues with high functioning autism are essentially over. This merits a good bit of relief being able to express normally and have somewhat of a normal life, but I feel that some of the best things about the autism spectrum (like an obsess... |

| Pardon me, but I truly need some advice. I was introduced to mary jane a couple of times in my recent history. One of the things it does to me is make touching things feel really weird. I'd touch my face or my back and the sensations are most unusual, and am compelled to make more compulsory touchin... |

Just some personal research on weighing the pros and cons of it. Is it addictive? How lethal is it really? Is it better/worse for those with AS or HFA?

| First, I am overjoyed that you have found happiness and peace and a niche! Second, that's not the same as 'outgrowing AS' But your experience does point to the danger in labeling and the possible danger in getting caught up in the mindset that "I have something.... I'm less than". In the days befor... |

| All of this semester, I haven't used WP at all. I hardly knew anyone in the univ. I went to, offering me a "clean slate" to gain better perspectives on things.

Church was definitely a pillar of my better development, despite the fact that I am currently questioning the metaphysics of its
long held claims, going for the company is not always a bad idea. |

A Checklist of Aspie traits would be neat and pretty convenient.
Also basic background stuff too. |
