| I thought i'd post a rant about what i'm thinking about right now otherwise i'll be churning it over in my head all night and wont be able to relax. The problem is that I despise being female. I don't even like the fact that this is in "womens discussion". Such a title conjures up images of gossipin... |

| I can definitely relate to what ElsaFlowers said about feeling happy and normal for brief times and then everything going bad again, and then questioning whether you really were ever happy or if it was just wishful thinking. Also, could someone explain what it feels like to be "going through the mot... |

| I'm in my late teens and have Aspergers. When I was a bit younger I was very depressed and suicidal but after a while it got a bit better and I started to just have depressive episodes with bigger gaps in between. Now, however, I still get depressive episodes but in between I almost always feel very... |

Ah that's a good idea! It sounds like it could definitely help me with my facial expressions and body language. Thanks for the tip  |

| My feeling is: is that you have lots of romance in you. Kraftiekortie, may I ask why you think this? Apologies if this seems rude to KazKazKaz(not my intention at all) but i'm genuinely interested as I could once upon a time relate to some of what's being described and it seems you have an interest... |

| Since being diagnosed with Aspergers, i've noticed that i'm not very expressive. My voice is very monotone and I feel very stiff in social situations. I kind of feel like i'm covered in hardened paper mache! Everybody else(especially women) move a lot and have very expressive voices and faces. I'd l... |

| I was thinking earlier about how the feeling of being in love kind of feels like sadness. Its like being in love is the cousin of sadness. It has the same heavyness to it that makes you want to sigh and it definitely has a melancholic air to it. I think being in love is warm, heavy and yet has movem... |

| I did actually have the same kind of thoughts about the herbal anti-depressant. Actually, i'm not even sure if it is exactly herbal. It's called 5-HTP and has been recommended to me alot over the years, but I never wanted to take that or any other drug. It has some really good reviews and was even m... |

| I have actually started taking a herbal anti-depressant lately. I was even unsure about taking that at first, but now I think I might as well try it and see if that helps me with motivation and brings me to life a bit more. I have tried pretty much everything. Exercise, meditation, healthy eating, p... |

| On another note, I'm wondering if people who just feel very separate from the rest of the world are prone to this, too. The reasoning would be that if they feel separate, then they can't connect, and if they can't connect they can't really get caught up in things in a positive way the way others ca... |

| I see what you mean, I often feel similarly. Not with wanting to go back in time as much(though a bit) but I often just look around and feel sad and angry about how the world is and wonder how it will be. What's worse is that not many others see how I do. Maybe you could just examine what it is abou... |

| I like dark mysterious loner types. I think it's interesting and shows that they are not interested in following the crowd and being your stereotypical "lad". It also makes them seem more intelligent and maybe they like things away from the mainstream, but that's just what I think. I myself am a bit... |

I am taking a few steps to make my life move more, but I guess it's going to take time and for now i'll just have to fill my time with smaller things till I can start ... |
