Thanks, I don't know much about those personality types - do they have real credence? I have chosen to ignore her completely. I will not respond in any way.  |

| Creativity in one form or another has saved me from this mad world. When I was very young it kept me interested in life when I realized my parents were useless & would never be caring. As a young man it saved me from concentrating on the horrors that were inflicted on me as a victim of violent c... |

| Yes, I nearly ran away from this as I have hit so many crazymakers in my own life. Try having a mother who had schizophrenia with paranoid delusions as your carer. Narcissists are the worst as they control through making one feel stupid & responsible for their feelings. Workplaces are full of th... |

| One might think that an older guy would know by now, but I always seem to get the same problem which I have no answer for. I have Asperger's with all the stimming, comorbidities, & diseases a person collects as they age. I am not unfriendly, but neither do I need a lot of attention. I am a lone ... |

| Writing about the Autism Spectrum Disorder experience is a worthwhile thing to do. My clinical psychologist says I should do a book as a person surviving in the regions of country Queensland. I have a degree in English awarded Honours (I'm an obsessive Aspie) which helps structuring the story into c... |

| In no way will I accept that people are testing one out? That makes no sense & is cruel. They were bullies, that is all. Giving them a place just allows them to vent their problems out on others. I have no time for them. Jealousy is common in the arts. It is a profession that attracts some of th... |

| Indeed ASD is a spectrum. I have High-Functioning Autism, once called & still in many places Asperger's. I have some of the smarts associated with this form of autism & some speech impairments. I can get my words twisted & talk very fast with difficulty getting clear speech pronunciation... |

| I do not know if anyone reading this will understand completely. But the written conversations I have had on this site are more than I have had with anyone other than my YouTube comments, all year! I just have problems talking to real people, so this is the first time I have engaged in a social-type... |

| Thank you for replying. Let me clarify my location stand. If I was rich I would move to some land & live the hippy lifestyle rather in the fashion of the Radical Faeries movement. However, I presently live in a very hot tropical regional city which is slowly killing me. I would move South to a c... |

| Double Retired what's up Doc? Remember that movie? Only people our age would. When I got my diagnosis officially it was really no news as I suspected as much years ago. I started university with a year of psychology as most do before they find a niche & Asperger's was still the name before it be... |
