Well something i learnt today that had been greatly affecting my health, mould spores in the air namely mycotoxin's. Had been getting a sore chest and head going haywire again, i discovered a large amount of black mold growing on the glass of my rentals front door internal side. Its interesting, for quite a while my brain keeped suggesting there's something in the air affecting my health. This isn't the first time ive had mold problems but what i often fail to do is make the connection. It can really cause a person distress if there's crap in the air around home depression is just one of many things. Almost instantly i noticed an improvement in the air quality after cleaning the glass panels. Now my guts is deciding to play up 'ibs' but other than that i can breath.

Hopefully 1kg of borax powder is arriving today 'monday' that should help. Need to detox from fluoride.

I used to do that too, with baking soda. The dentist told me to use fluoride (apparently she could tell just by looking at my teeth), so now I'm worried about my dental health.

[quote="starkid"]https://willopines.wordpress.com/2017/04/19/punched-out/

I read this blog, despite Starkid's warning and, because I have autism/Asperger's syndrome, a history of suicide ideations and attempts, and been coaching/counseling other auties/aspies like myself in suicide avoidance and prevention since 1994, I wasn't surprised by what it said. I've known about my own propensity since attempting my first serious and willful suicide at age 3½ and researched it extensively since I began writing books and blogs about my life of childhood autism, autistic psychopathy, and Asperger's Syndrome, when I retired from full-time professional employment as a county engineer in 2010.

There are such strong social stigmas against mental illness in general, and suicide, in particular, that no main- stream writer refers to them as such. They use less stigmatic metaphors like, depression, anxiety, and panic, to describe them. Only in the scientific community do writers not beat about the bush. I rely for statistics on three institutions in particular. The Karolinska Instituten of Stockholm, Sweden, reports that folks with autism are 2½ times as likely to die prematurely than people without autism, and a surprising majority of them die by suicide [http://ki.se/en/news/people-with-autism-run-a-higher-risk-of-premature-death]. Pennsylvania State University, USA, reports that children with autism are 28 times as likely to contemplate/attempt suicide than children who do not have autism [http://news.psu.edu/story/267913/2013/03/11/research/autistic-children-may-be-greater-risk-suicide-ideation-and-attempts]. Cambridge University, England, reports adults with autism are 9 times more likely to contemplate/attempt suicide than normal [http://www.medicinenet.com/script/main/art.asp?articlekey=179185] "And, study co-leader Simon Baron-Cohen, also of Cambridge, added, "Adults with Asperger syndrome often suffer with secondary depression due to social isolation, loneliness, social exclusion, lack of community services, under-achievement and unemployment." However, Baron-Cohen believes that "their depression and risk of suicide are preventable with the appropriate support. This study should be a wake-up call for the urgent need for high-quality services, to prevent the tragic waste of even a single life," he said in the news release. Two experts in the United States weren't surprised by the findings."

Here in England, we have known this for almost 1000 years and taught the incumbents of the condition suicide avoidance/prevention to reduce their risk of suicide, except, of course, the condition has only had their current names since the 20th century. However, we've kept it secret, as we regarded it as militarily advantageous, for we can kill ourselves and come back to life, and it was subject to the Official Secrets Acts 1911-1989 until 12 May 2014, when I began publicizing it on the internet. We called it 'ruler warrior savantism' as it stemmed all the way from William the Conqueror, and the suicide avoidance and prevention savantism/pedagogy was taught in England by the County Surveyors Society he founded on his coronation day, Christmas, 25 December 1066 and of which I was a member from my birth, 21 March 1945, to its demise at UN behest on 31 March 1997.

As it isn't secret anymore, I teach it pro bono, 7 Steps in 7 Days, so that High School, College, and University students can cram it in the week before exams, or before commencing a course, or during a mid term break from lectures; and/or as a more leisurely, pro bono, 7 Steps in 98 Days, to consolidate long term benefits.

I regard the 7 Steps in 7 Days as providing suicide avoidance training; and the 7 Steps in 98 Days as providing suicide prevention training. I had 15 years suicide avoidance training and 35 years suicide prevention training, to become an instructor of the County Surveyors Society. PM me if you want to avail yourself of one or other, and I will give you their email autoresponder URL.

I read through his post. Can relate to a lot of his struggles in life, as a fellow aspie. Regardless, I see his choice as selfish. Unless there's something I am missing. He very well may have had a comorbidy going on along with his AS. If that wasn't the case, and he did it because he felt he still 'wasn't understood'... I mean, really? There's more to this story, I feel.


The suicide is his right. Leaving that public screed to haunt his kids forever is a BS act.

After I read he had kids, my sympathy for him vanished. It's bad enough when your parent suicides. Zillion times worse when the parent posts self indulgent tirade on the internet where it will linger around forever.

After all, his problems are over. His kids get to deal with the sh***y, broken pieces forever. Thanks dad.

Assuming they actually care. I didn't give a damn when my dad died. And his "kids" are adults, if I recall correctly. He deliberately waited until they were adults.

The only thing i got out of it was he needed counseling and he committed suicide over people not sharing his views? He also didn't seem to accept himself and he couldn't learn social anxiety. The more quiet you are, the less you offend and not bothering to fight with people and argue because you don't want to puss anyone off right. Plus he didn't mention any sensory issues or routines so I would say he had symptoms.

Another brilliant mind snuffed out by society's expectations. May he rest in peace.
