| what I do is send myself some messages every morning (I use virtual meetings on Google Calendar to send me emails; you could do same, or mobile, or just stick labels on your bathroom mirror) in which spell out key messages for me in social, e.g. - it probably won't go well; don't get your hopes up ... |

| lol. i'm saying try less hard to notice what's going on around you. you don't have to hear and remember every word that is spoken, you don't have to look for and analyse every slight head and eye movement. just let a lot of what goes on go unnoticed by you. NT's observe far less than we do. then yo... |

| Good article. This part rang true for me, trying to join a local autism group: Workshops, groups, and classes given titles like "Living with Autism" or "Coping with Asperger's" are almost always 100% material for caregivers and relatives of autistic people. From the descriptions of such offerings o... |

| It is for the women who have it. I think about killing myself all the time. You men don't know how lucky you are. I'm sorry that you're suicidal, but I don't see how that proves that being a non-neurotypical female is worse than having cancer. Drebi is female, and there are many other females on th... |

That kind of selfish behaviour and the entitlement of never feeling the need to apologize for mistakes, wrongdoing or hurt caused... |

| It's a male. Do you have issues against men or something? Not trying to be a total a-hole but you've been really going on about the whole "male" thing almost as if you don't think we have reason to complain about our issues. No, I love men because many more men are able to make something of their l... |

| When I start seeing red, I become a runaway train, never going back. (Wrong way on a one way track.) I just wish I knew how to derail, before I hurt someone. |

| So, your advice is to play with a lighter when I leave my wallet in a store, don't realize it's missing until I'm at the cash register, and when I go back to get it I find the store closed with my wallet locked inside. Sure, I'll play with a lighter, and a gasoline can. I have been getting bad advi... |

| There is absolutely everything wrong with what you just said. My AS makes me a wretched human being. I have hurt the people that I love so many times, and I know that if I don't learn to act like I don't have it (at least most of the time) I will continue to hurt them many times more. Also, what's ... |
