Re: Are you Autistic?

I was diagnosed at the grand old age of 38, several years ago. Still haven’t managed to get the help I need, it’s difficult to find support, especially when you hit your 40s. Private therapists...

Re: Would you ever go on a conversation training course?

No, I wouldn’t consider it.

When I was in my teens, twenties and to a certain degree, in my thirties, I definitely would have been willing to try to improve my social skills because I was still...

Re: Mental health records

Firemonkey, that sounds awful and unprofessional. I think that the people who work in mental health should avoid writing their personal opinions about patients in their notes and just stick to the...

Mental health records

I’d like to access my GP medical records, I already know how to do that but I’d like to know if my mental health records will be in there too as those are the ones I’d most like to see. I’ve...

Re: The long term effects of bullying- how does it affect you?

The long term effects of bullying can vary from person to person and I think it also depends on how many good experiences you’ve had, which can sometimes cancel out the bad.

Personality, too....

Re: Is your anxiety worse when talking to certain people?

Yes I feel the same.

I’m more anxious speaking to people who have a particular energy about them but it’s difficult to pinpoint why sometimes. Like you said, these people aren’t necessarily...

Re: Does social anxiety and avoidance get better or worse with age?

My anxiety is about the same but my avoidance is getting worse. When I was younger I was always thinking about all of the things I wanted to do, and hoped that maybe one day I'd find a way to...

Re: People from the same area as you

I live still live in the town I was born in but in not in the same area. I went to school in a different town and apart from one person who I haven't seen for a while, I didn't keep in touch with...

Re: The Autism, Asperger's and ASD Thread

I was diagnosed five years ago and had the opportunity to attend an Autism group but it was in another town too far away, and as I can't use public transport I was unable to go. My mums friend is...

Re: The Autism, Asperger's and ASD Thread

^ True. Even if people don't know you are Autistic and you can mask reasonably well, with prolonged contact, people will just know that there's something different about you and adjust their...

Re: Single, childless and happy

I'm definitely happy I don't have children - not that I've ever had the opportunity to consider that option! I'm not maternal and the world is such a horrible place so it's just as well.

Up until...

Re: Coping with living alone?

Generally, okay.

I live in a housing association flat so I don't need to do much to maintain the property apart from contacting them if anything needs repairing. You can do it online now which is...

Re: The adverse effects of loneliness versus the adverse effects of social isolation?

I really like living alone and I doubt I'd ever want to share my space with anyone else, apart from my mum.

Occasionally I feel pangs of loneliness, but only when I'm either watching something on...

Re: The Autism, Asperger's and ASD Thread

I'm not sure I'd put it that way but I understand what you mean. I think that being on the autism spectrum can make other people (neuro typicals) behave less humanely towards us. This gives us a...

Re: Do you ignore callers, or visitors to your home?

Yes, unless I know who they are and l'm expecting them. People rarely knock on my door but if they do, I don't care who they are and what they want - they won't get in. I never answer the phone...

Re: Small things that annoy you (3)

It annoys me when people - especially medical professionals - say "And you are?" I know that they've probably been told to say that but I think it sounds rude, especially if it's said in an overly...

Re: What did your child self want to be/do?

I've always gone from having no ambition (due to very low confidence) to having unrealistic goals.

As a child I never thought about jobs or wanting to be a mother; none of those thoughts ever...

Re: What should you be doing? Procrastination thread

I've slipped back into some bad habits regarding food and although my diet is generally healthy, I consume far too much sugar. Snacking at night is a big problem too because I'm an insomniac.

Re: For the isolated, what are the reasons you don't get out there?

Spot on. I think that many (most?) people who are in cliques have an exclusivity or "You can't sit with us" mentality that either repels or intimidates others. Sometimes they don't mean it or they...

Re: Anyone scared of people they find attractive?

I've always been scared of attractive people, especially men. It's because I've always been aware that I don't fit into the "ideal sexy, super slim beauty" category, and I think that every attractive...

Re: TV programs you're watching?

Kath and Kim on Netflix - so glad it's on there! Needed a laugh. Also, Better call Saul. So far I've only watched two episodes so it's probably too early to form an opinion, but it seems quite tame...
