I've been made aware of AS over the past 5 years because I have a son who's been diagnosed and another with ASD. What I understand from my research of the past few weeks is that I probably could get a diagnosis for myself and another of my 5 children. So I am posting here not knowing what to expect, but hoping I can find something that will make it possible to assign an appropriate number!! !

Picture me as a dancing skeleton.
Anyway, there is the possibility of me flunking Chemistry since the end of the trimester will be on November 30th. I have 2 1/2 weeks to prepare my portfolio piece.

3. Found out today from mum that my stepdad had to be rushed to hospital up here in an ambulance and may lose his leg. He has diabetes. The hospital people are going to do all they can to save his leg so I hope and pray that they succeed. Mum said she would seriously struggle to look after him at home if he loses his leg because it would have to be taken at the hip but she'd feel guilty if he went into a home. I'm not a very religious person but told mum I am thinking of them both.

-9 This is the first time I've had next to no self-esteem for like over a year now I swear...
I'm usually upright and proud... but there's so much **** going on and it's all ridiculous beyond measure. And it ain't just the Heather thing at all. I don't think a girl alone could do this to me... sure it'd still damage me but a girl alone couldn't do this.

"Courage and anger are the children of hope" as I recall one person on here once quoting... I think there's about to be an explosion of courage and anger from me... I intend to do something very courageous and damn lol I'm going to be angry. :D

So **** it... it's -9. :(

I swear, there's absolutely no point in having a good time with my mother; she'll be an absolute brat the next day.

Careful. Turn some critical thinking onto that quote and rip it apart, regardless of the source. I don't happen to see anything courageous in displays of anger. Quite the opposite. The best and most courgeous acts are often the ones that go unnoticed as anything remarkable. Often they are a kind of "anti-act"--refraining from doing something you might otherwise have done if you had let yourself be ruled by urges and passing emotions.

You're wise to realize that what you're feeling has little to do with the girl. I believe you'll find the root of it. You're determined. :)

---

Adding all the positive and negative things in my life, I reach about a +3 today. Nah, scratch that. I forgot somthing.

+4.

Thanks. I may be determined by nature sure but... this is kind of defying what's natural atm what with my very low self-esteem of current times...
So I'm feeling unnatural... :(

A lot of it is to do with her, but yes - certainly not all of it... and yeah you're quite right - my self-esteem would be intact if the other stuff was ok. So she ain't the source of the problem in terms of me not liking myself currently...

Some day I'll find myself again... and I'll be back on a good streak. When that day comes I don't know yet. :(
