Distractions please!

My counsellor blocked my email address 6 days ago because she can't give me the help I need anymore and I've been sending her too many emails (out of anxiety, sort of compulsively looking for reassurance)

To be honest I'm feeling pretty broken but I'm looking for as many positive distractions as possible to help me get through this time

So far... the Simpsons is sort of helping

  • I find original research is worthwhile, either in an area which makes no sense whatsoever, or out on the outer edges, cutting fresh ground. We're in such an area here, as high-functionality has never really been looked at. I thought that to be the case when diagnosed six years ago, but wasn't certain until one of my authorities (in late mediaeval thinking) moved to start the Yale Genius School last year. That affirmed my assessment and freed my internalised criticism of the diagnostic foundations we face: they're weak. We live with the conditions 24/7, you'd have thought someone would ask us, but they don't, Temple Gradin daring to tell them was a first, long after their ideas had become fixed, and few others have followed: we've been too tormented by them to have much confidence it'll do any good, I suspect.
