| A moderator with a Napoleon Complex took out his anger on me and banned me from chat when it was two other people causing disturbance. This guy basically gave me an ultimatum and I told him the truth : " I have nothing to do with that " , and perma-banned me from the chat which is a pretty harsh thi... |

Seems like you're an avid writer when it comes to this topic. Why don't you write a book, get it published, then send your mom a copy ?
Maybe she'll begin to understand her role in all this. |

| Again, don't do meds. Meds will not help you transcend this phenomenon that seems to be happening to you right now. I've been in a similar situation. I used to believe all the terrible things my mind would conjure up. Terrible nightmares basically of objectification (in my mind) of others and myself... |

| I'm in Florida and looking for a physical meeting to meet other autistics (like myself). Meetings in the Hollywood and Fort Lauderdale areas would be great. Meeting place and meeting times much appreciated :) I dunno if some meetings require a pre-screening or what have you ; totally new to this ! |

| Mostly it depends on the context, but often (around people I don't know) people get this automatic "shields up" response when I walk up and interact with them. And I haven't even said a word or made a facial expression at them yet ! I've seen this too many times for it not to be true. I've been in s... |

If I could afford speech therapy I would. Insurance companies don't cover any of that stuff, at least mine doesn't.
I am considering practicing on my own, you know making little speech videos.
It's work , but I think it will help me in the long run. |

Not to mention you don't even know who these employers are, they could be seriously abusive to their employees. I've encountered quite a few employers her... |

| No, that's my answer. (Not for all cases, but most) How can you call someone a "friend" if you don't know what they're like in real life ? Especially when you don't know whether you can get along with them face to face in the real world. I myself prefer face to face interaction, given the person is ... |

Hi guys,
does anyone here know, by chance, if there are Austism groups here in south florida ?
I would like to meet other autistics in my area but I really don't know where to go.
Maybe volunteer work involving other autistics would be nice too.
Any tips/recommendations much appreciated |
