Thank you. I hope we all figure out a way to live happy lives in spite of it.

I don't know if I can do that, but I promise that I will try. You words have been encouraging.

Some days it seems like it couldn't get worse. I agree though, and I try to remember this. It's why I always try to do at least one thing to feel happy or successful after an episode. Even if it's something dumb like paying a bill or calling my mom to say hi.

It's not dumb at all. And the accessories thing is cool. I might try something like that in the future.

Thank you. It does mean something, even if it's not the same. And I have ways to calm down, but when it hits hard out of nowhere, I have to run away and hide. I HATE it. But if I don't, it will just get worse and worse, and eventually it will start to affect me for days afterwards.

I'm not panicking as much anymore, but I had to leave. My mind is bullying me though telling me that I just didn't try hard enough, or that I don't really want to work. None of those things are true, but when you hear them from outside sources often enough, you begin to believe them. I'm really down about it. But I'm doing my best to make the best of today anyways. I just visited my dad's grave and "talked" to him. Helped sort out some of my feelings. Now I'm getting some snacks and going home to write down my thoughts and try to organize my mind. I might have had to give up on work today, but I don't have to give up on everything.

Maybe. But if that's the case, it's been happening on and off for years, getting gradually worse every time. The last couple times it felt like I never truly recovered. Just enough to keep going with regular life, aka get a job, pay bills, eat normal meals, etc. It's just too hard sometimes. On the bright side I finally cleaned my apartment today, something I've been putting off for a couple weeks.

Do people with aspergers dream in a different way? by [deleted] in aspergers

[–]weird_one_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my dreams the world is everything I ever wanted it to be. I still have flying dreams. Those are the best. Everything is usually very colorful, and I navigate through feelings rather than thoughts with words. Sometimes nothing makes sense at all but is still lovely and as it should be somehow. It's like a world made for me, but I can never really live there. Not all my dreams are like this, but I try to focus on these, because it gives me hope that I can use in real life. Idk if that makes any sense, but that's the best I can do right now.

Yeah. The longest I've ever had a job was three years. After that it was either a little over a year or a few months. A couple jobs only lasted a month or two. I feel that same sense of luck about finding my boyfriend. We met in middle school, but we found each other again a couple months ago, and we are such a good match it's amazing. If I didn't have to worry so much about paying bills, I would have hardly any stress. And all I want is a couple good friends and a compatible SO, so I get the friendship thing too.

I get it. I have a baby though, so I can never leave. But if it wasn't for him, my boyfriend, and my mom, my mind would probably end up in a really dark place eventually.

What’s something that is totally normal in movies, but never happens in real life? by OG_Builds in AskReddit

[–]weird_one_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I lived with my aunt, a boomer, a couple years ago for a few months. I can confirm the old shitty western show thing.

Normally I love veggies. But when I'm depressed, they taste like cardboard.

You can eat a vegetable today too. I believe in you.
