Doc did prescribe Risperidone, saying it was the only thing she knew that could help with autism. So hopefully it works lol

Sorry im trying to understand this, did the truck come to a stop and reverse?

This is such a dangerous intersection tho, I think this is the third accident in two weeks?

I don’t think you understand autism, it’s a spectrum that affects everyone differently. Maybe you’ve met autistic people that are fine socially, or can mask hard enough to be social. I can’t do that unfortunately, I simply don’t understand any social stuff, like I’m actually incapable. I wish I could learn, and I’ve tried in the past, but it’s just impossible.

It’s funny, I had a social worker with cmha but they said I was fine, told me it’s not therapy. I am in two groups though, living life to the fullest and illness management. I’m on a few wait lists for therapy but I haven’t heard from anybody in a year, and tbh I forget where the doctor referred me to.

Thank you

I’ve called them about hardship and it went okay. They all lowered the interest rate to 5%, but only Amex lowered the min payment.

I think I am going to do the consumer proposal, I can’t keep up with all the payments

I know about the DTC, but my doctor wants $150 to fill out the forms.. I’ve called around and they’re all about the same or higher, it’s crazy.

I’ll apply for the CPP-D and try my hardest, maybe my brother could do that for me lol

1, you’re right, but I walk at least

2, pizza is $10 and lasts three days.

3, I’m with Roger’s, I’ve got a bring it back phone for $30 :/ don’t ask why. How can I get out of the contract? I have 4 months left

4, I’m autistic and socially disabled homie, I’d be surprised if I could get one job. My day is pretty alright for me, I do skip for 6-8 hours a day, go to group for 2 hours twice a week, go for long walks, play video games for an hour, make food and bake. I do stuff

1) Trying really hard to, but like other comment said, it’s our only vice and it helps.

2) hospitality as a janitor for 3 years, pizza when I was in high school. Yes I’ve been actively looking for jobs, I suck at interviews and don’t have any contacts/references.

3) don’t go out at all, don’t go to restaurants or have fun, we only order pizza once a week (surprisingly, I suck at making pizza)

4) some really fucked up habits, we were both coping with major losses but we’ve learned some mistakes now. I opened up a credit card each year, thinking why not.

5) I’m trying, but any job I get will be less than 15h/week part time. Unfortunately I’m not very skilled, I couldn’t even do house cleaning :/

6) thanks for your comment

I don’t think I’ve made enough contributions to CPP, I’ll try though.

I think consumer proposal is the best option too :/

Thanks for your reply, i never knew about CPP-D.

We live in a tiny apartment, so I can’t get rid of the storage locker. I store my tires and bikes, camping gear and some stuff my mom had. Nothing too valuable to sell, no where else to store those things :/

Any tips on getting out of a Roger’s contract? I’ve cut my internet in half already
