| Magical meerkat, I also haven't had a meltdown in years, although I would describe mine as more 'shutdowns'. But I think you may be asking something else, because I have come to realize, and it took a long time, that my childhood had a lot of emotional abuse. I struggle with sorting out what parts o... |

| I am in the process to get assessed for Dissociative Identity Disorder next to being autistic, because I have no sense of self. I wonder how autistic people score on the Dissociative Experiences Scale. I think some issues relate to autism as not recognizing faces of friends (I don't know less about... |

| ^ I don't think anyone really implied that. I think causation is a hard thing to determine. I think it's similar to how Bruno Bettleheim observed that autistic children had similar patterns of behavior to people held prisoner in a nazi concentration camp. He was correct in thinking those children fo... |

| I've found this forum very interesting. I have ASD and suspect my sister is BPD (her husband actually brought this up). A recent conversation with her: Her: "You know how you have Aspergers, do you have problems with strong smells, like perfume?". Me: "I have sensory issues and I disl... |

| X has the hots for Y, but Y has the hots for P. A eventually screws Y, 'cause she pines for P and A couldn't get of with M. In the meantime, X b*****s on WP, whilst sitting at home, w*king off to his perfectly imagined Y, while Q badly wants him in her pants. WTF, hey? No, What The XYPAMWP, and Q |

| Yes, in the sense that my dreams rarely feature people, and if they do they are vague. Whereas I notice objects, they are clear and detailed. I could describe, or even draw the things afterwards. There is not a great deal of plot to my dreams either. I'm always surprised to hear people's dreams, and... |

I'm from America (sort-of) so looking forward to going back and doing some of the long-distance trails there. Also loved hiking in New Zealand, would like to do the Te Aroea. ... |
