Thank you for sharing your profile.
I did not have the problems of sharing a dorm as I went to a state school and was an only child so had my own room. However on the occasions when in youth activities and field trips I had to share a room I found that very difficult.
You mention discipline. My family had a lot of expectations and there was no understanding then of being flexible with parenting unlike young autistics today. Discovering the reasons for difficulties in later years explains a lot.
One thing I did benefit from was that my parents were interested in wildlife and gardening. These are things that have helped me a great deal.
Ah you found a focus in your household to zoom inn on! that's terrific!
yes, these days there are so many more opportunities and a deeper understanding of Autism. the young ones now will be so much less lonely and in distress.
Many thanks for your support. I also think that you are doing well under very difficult circumstances. As for me , I believe that I found my soulmate,and am now paying the price of true love.
It may sound peculiar, but it is my faith that is keeping me going. I am not a preacher,for I respect everyones Opinions and Beliefs, and.I have found a lot of people in the Church, who are causing a lot of problems for the rest of us. I do not go for them , I go to praise God first, and be guided by his Teaching. I ,often get messages from him, when listening to the Biblical text,and the Sermon for that particular Sunday.
As I have said before, everyone to their own . I hope that I have not gone on too much about this. I hope that we can be as members of the Neuro Diverse family that can support and help one another.
You can use any name that you like - so it might be to do with your interests, or a part of the world you love, or the name of a book or film character... anything at all! Re my 'name' - VikingMermaid - it's a combination of my ancestry and my love of wild swimming :)
Hope you find the confidence to choose some sort of handle (code name) in due course, but only when it's right for you.
Many thanks for your kind words,they are greatly appreciated. The reason why I prefer to use a number instead of my name,is because I do not have the confidence to give my name.
When I become better acquainted, I will start using my real name.
The true love that I am talking about, is still with me, in my heart. Love cannot be destroyed, for I believe , through my own experience, that my late husband`s love is stil. with me.I cannot prove it,but I believe that Death was defeated, through the crucifixion of Jesus, the Saviour of this troubled world , in which we all live, I cannot prove any of this ,but , I believe that, someday it will all come to be proved correct..
So, in a nutshell,what happened to true love, when my husband passed,went into my heart, where it will be , for thye rest of my life!
In my experience , the price of having found a person who loved and accepted everything about me, and without being critical . of me.
The price of" true love", is that now, I have been left on my own, and, that I always must remember how lucky I have been to have met my "soulmate. Not everyone is so blessed.
