| Hi Jelly, Wow, there seem to be lots of nuances in autism, but your story sounds really familiar. Cool to read something like that. Cheers. I wanted to say something about the diagnose.

| There is an interesting relation with things like depression. It seems like you have a certain amount of control over collapsing, or shutting down, which creates a slippery situation where you can start to suck peoples energy. I think however, if you try to use that control to much to avoid being a ... |

| You also forgot the option: "They are all bastards." I think they blatantly are there for repression and oppression, with some minor other functions dealing with the public, as a cover up. I also usually refuse to deal with them, which for me means that i don't talk to them, and if they rough me up,... |

| If there was one thing i'd like to see changed, it would be the removal of the lols, F words and slang. You would greatly strengthen your case by doing so.

Wonder what they would think of autists having forums with emoticons hahaha.... |

So I wrote an article about how autism works for me. If anyone would like to read it, here it is: http://naja.nitewinds.org/aut... |
