Maybe it's just the media choosing to broadcast more ethnic related crimes than non-ethnic related ones, hereby making it look like crimes by ethnic people happen more often. Conversely, how often do you see news reports of ethnic people being the victims of crime? (ie. kidnapping, child murders, e... |

Yeah, they do give you a tour of everything the first time you visit, and even invite you to try out one of the weight machines. I'm still not sure I'm doing it right, so I guess I could ask, but it's just embarrassing to betray how clumsy you are, you know? I find the easiest way to get past that ... |

What a CRAPPY therapist. The job of any person involved with trying to help others' mental health should be PRIMARILY: DON'T ADD MORE PROBLEMS ON TOP OF THE EXISTING ONES. The fact that you said this: "she said...she doesn't know what to do with me" and "...it left me feeling hurt, as if I am a comp... |

When I had my assessment, I told the psychiatrist that I was very embarrassed about my obsession and that she was the only person I had ever told. I assumed she would keep this information to herself and wouldn't feel the need to explicitly mention it in the report ... but I was wrong. "She told me... |

Is your perception very detailed, and do you see many many many details in a setting at the same time? When I look at the world, I see lots of lots of details all at once. I don't zoom in to see the details a few at a time, because I see all the details right away, no zooming required. Yes times a ... |

Just thought I'd add in case someone misunderstood. I'm not talking about the standard "time flies by" phenomenon but physical time. Speed of objects and sound. Maby a better example is when you look and listen to a clock and it's speeded up or slowed down. In my experience it seems to happen when ... |

My job closed last year and I have gone through all sorts of depression. I only found out about Aspergers in the last month or so. It was always in the back of my mind that I might have mild Autism but I never told anybody. Anyway I have told my brother and my mother. The two of them are telling me... |

I thought the interviewer seemed a little condescending, but I am quite interested in the book. Is there anywhere online I can read some excerpts? Agreed. She was a bit that way but I don't think it was out of malice. Most people aren't quite sure where Autism fits in the scheme of things. They kno... |

It's been nearly two weeks since we broke up (which isn't too long but still) and I can't seem to get her out of my head. She was my first real girlfriend, lasted five months. However if it were up to me it would have lasted longer, I still like her but had to break up because she didn't like me a... |
