... How do we describe autism in a way that everybody can understand? ... How do we describe autism in a way that everybody can understand, and accept ? I mean, it’s easy to explain autism, and maybe a little less easy to explain how it feels to be autistic in an allistic society. But how do you ex...

This is a really good thread. Thanks for making it. I am an older aspie, but I escaped a lot of bullying, mainly because of the way my parents socialized me I was able to kind of fit in, and being very good looking (which I always deliberately downplayed my entire life) really did help, sad to say,...

Great thread OP!! ! Your sharing of this is an inspiration (but not porn). I never heard of inspiration porn until I searched it just now. Your gut instinct is on the mark. Do NOT play the aspie card. There are exceptions to this, such as if doing so is absolutely necessary to survive, but, generall...

I fail to see how 33 minutes of people staring into the camera can help anyone who has difficulties with eye contact. It reminds me of what I did when I was younger which was to stare holes thru people. I had no idea that I was creeping them out. If anything, THAT is what this video teaches. Agreed...

edited to add: am getting confused about who I am writing to as two people's names begin with F and I have brain damage so sometimes a difficulty with processing such complexities esp when two people are talking so much and so many short messages. But I think it is still possible to get the basic gi...

These sorts of things happen to many kids. I once had a teacher throw an encyclopedia-sized book at me in Sophomore Year. by Senior Year, she grew to like and respect me. Depending on many factors, but most specifically the home situation, different children will factor in this kind of experience d...

I did not read the whole thread as it got so mundane, though will try to, for entertainment mainly, at this point, but a good idea is to encourage each other not to be overly sensitive to words. Encouraging this kind of over-sensitivity is imo often (though not always) a form of enabling that weaken...

Joey wrote (on page 2): "Being autistic means you lose most situations, whether you're doing the ''right'' thing or not, then you get a lecture about empathy and s**t. I mean, if you was the lady who was in a hurry and said ''excuse me'' to other shoppers who were standing where you needed to g...

I did not read this entire thread, only the first page or two some time ago, so am kind of jumping in as this topic seems to be going on and on and will probably be going on ad infinitum. Would it be okay to say I dislike a lot of people on WP, even have a visceral dislike for many of them? (Not say...

Well, just when I am once again about to leave Wrong Planet these interest threads do make me feel like I am with my people. but I have yet failed to name my own MANY special interests which over the years have been very intense, verging on fanatical. I will divide then into these categories: art (p...

"The biggest problem we have is he absolutely 100% locks up with an inability to perform maybe 70% of days while getting dressed in the morning. We have tried to-do routine checklists, traditional punishments (taking away pokemon cards, etc), time outs, some mild spanking, etc." None of t...

Hi. Sorry about this. You have a really big problem, especially since your son is entering adolesence, it can possibly get worse. This is your window to change things right now. I suggest to try to look at the situation not as a problem specific to autism but rather of family dysfunction as this ope...
