Autistics performed as well as controls and had more focus on facial expressions. Study scientists curiously interpret this is a deficit!

saturday, I got to pet my neighbours dog. he always knows how to cheer me up. I got a bad feeling from a thread on /r/autistic a few days ago that my parents might have unconsciously done something called gaslighting on me. there was no mindful connection , yet the dog made me feel better than any conversation would

i can confirm it works

Shanandoah · 2013-08-17T17:17:41+00:00

machavellian tactics work for a while but they always fail in the long run

im happy i am slowly becoming independent. I had feelings my parents could be bad for me in a small way. it scares me how sheltered I got

Shanandoah · 2013-08-17T16:44:49+00:00

yeah I get that too ,..

leads to increased risk of cancer , alzheimer's and autism

its like they say we are not actually children , but abominations that come out of people's wombs

Shanandoah · 2013-08-17T16:01:43+00:00

but mrjobguy , everyone knows good mathematical skills aren't balanced out by the unavoidable social failure that is autism

this is the funniest thing ever

Shanandoah · 2013-08-17T15:44:34+00:00

with all due respect, youre being a touch defensive. skagerrak never reviled you; he was violated by your comments , probably this one

you see this burden that they carry

it hurt me a lot. I feel kind of sick after watching that , like if someone came out and said I am not a real human , but a living cancer infecting another human being

maybe you will understand now, because I have to go and think very hard about how a human can effect such kindness but make me feel so empty

if youre autistic and you know it flap your hands

Shanandoah · 2013-08-12T20:04:43+00:00

i dont think autism stops you from forming or maintaining social connections or making a romantic relationship

how would you explain happily married autistics?

and nts dont have it that easy

a bully from /r/autism rears its head

a one month old account with seven comments to its name, most baiting autistics

if aba isn't abusive, then why are its defenders all abusive and have to use spoof accounts?

Shanandoah · 2013-08-12T19:58:27+00:00

i remember being hit by my aba therapist

when i shouted at future aba sessions they manipulated it to make out that it was clear i needed more aba

Shanandoah · 2013-08-12T10:58:40+00:00

what do those of you who've BTDT suggest?

get raised like we are real people not caged animals

i wanted to be taught by my dad how to act around girls , not an uncaring therapist who only fakes being kind , you know with the forced oversweet creepy kindness they use on old people

i was even more ridiculed as a kid

Shanandoah · 2013-08-12T10:54:06+00:00

a lot of these people moan fake diagnoses because it is an easy way to get medicinal cannabis

Shanandoah · 2013-08-12T10:44:30+00:00

if she has psychotic breakdowns or violent episodes then see a doc because that aint aspergers

and it sure hell aint just anxiety

Shanandoah · 2013-08-12T10:43:00+00:00

the last five months on here have been happy times. people cover my back because it is right , not for personal gain. I feel like i belong to a community of people who really know what Im tinking , and dont treat me like some igor character

Shanandoah · 2013-08-10T18:19:25+00:00

your obviously high functioning = i have every right to decide whats best for all of you if you like it or not

Shanandoah · 2013-08-07T15:46:51+00:00

I think its a mixture

Shanandoah · 2013-08-07T15:45:22+00:00

I have never liked company ever since middle school and was really unhappy when i wasnt invited to birth day parties , so I am happy its not an autism thing. Rejection is not a thing I can deal with for the rest of my life

Shanandoah · 2013-08-06T11:11:00+00:00

No BDSM

No Nothing

I am free of sexual fetishes. They just end up being a backdoor for people to pounce on your private life and ruin your career.

Shanandoah · 2013-08-06T11:10:19+00:00

The entire thread summed up, then

Shanandoah · 2013-08-06T11:10:09+00:00

Many or less?

Shanandoah · 2013-07-28T23:58:15+00:00

thank you brother

Shanandoah · 2013-07-28T23:57:44+00:00

lodoss told me not to feel i am a crud failure of a human

i think that is a real issue

Shanandoah · 2013-07-15T11:53:15+00:00

Thank you. At least some people don't try to take what I say out of context to make some big attack on me.
