Dear T,
So...while looking for stuff about my H possibly being on the spectrum, I came across this long list of traits that females with (the disorder formerly known as) Asperger's tend to have. And...it's eerily similar to me. Apparently females on the high-functioning end of the spectrum can actually have lots of empathy. So now I'm really wondering...Suppose I'll print out that list and bring it with me tomorrow.
Love,
LT

Some day you will learn how to say you are sorry. I won't hold my breadth since I know you so well.

Formerly? That's what they say my brother has. I thought it was still called it

Well, DSM V changed everything so it's just "autism spectrum disorder." But I know some people still use the term--I just don't think someone would get that diagnosis now, they'd just get ASD. When they were first trying to diagnose my daughter, they were saying that if the previous DSM still existed, she'd be more likely to get the PDD-NOS (pervasive developmental disorder-not otherwise specified) diagnosis if it still existed, but they rolled that into autism spectrum disorder as well.

The only reason I spent 20 minutes talking about my Christmas was to avoid talking about what I should have been talking about - that thing that I don’t want to talk about.

Maybe I’ll be able to talk about it Thursday. I’ll try again.

I wish I didn't think so much sometimes.

I want to just be angry without questioning why
I want the smug know-it-all part of my brain that points out exactly what I'm doing to shut up and let me pretend.

Sometimes I wonder how much of it you'd figure out if I didn't figure it out for you.

I wish I could redo the last session, with everything I'm dying to ask you know, answered. What the hell is wrong with me? I could never think properly in that room. Ugh...

I will never tell you this but I am so excited to miss 3 to 4 sessions after my upcoming surgery. I like to prove that I am fine without you.

As you already know I do not want to be in therapy for the next 5 to 10 years. I want to be better now. DID is a pain. Why can't you tell me it is all made up and will go away if I will just do x y and z?

While the body focuses on survival, the repeated scene should take a back seat, right?

I just ate a 650-calorie muffin on a rest day, and I'm freaking out.
Not that you understand or could help really.
