It's disappointing to feel no enthusiasm for anything. It affects everything I do, as I'm effectively half-present at any given time and have no real interest in most things and nothing can really please me or upset me, I'm so apathetic.

"Pre-sex discussion" is a novel concept? It's nice to see dissent on this. If you find this interesting, you might also like Ariel Levy's Female Chauvinist Pigs: Women and the Rise of Raunch Culture.

Perhaps you can go to an urban school? New York, for instance, there's no shortages of schools, people come to class and immediately leave, and no one particularly wants to know who you are.

I read in Attwood's latest book that lack of competitiveness and ambition are seen in those with ASDs, but that's all I can remember being said on this... Myself, I've only briefly had that sense of ''yeah, bright days ahead, let's d...
