I assume you are from the UK (correct me if I'm wrong). I'm in the US and as far as I know we have no such government assistance available. My fiancée could qualify for disability assistance (they just give you a monthly check). We've yet to receive a diagnosis so that makes the application...

I'll try and keep this simple since even a summary will be a bit long. My fiance and I both have ASD, before the new DSM came out we were diagnosed with Asperger's. She's recently developed a chronic illness that makes her unable to work and often unable to get out of bed. I'm finding that I may...

I don't care about being happy. I'm not depressed or trying to be emo. It's just honestly not a concern or priority of mine. It's nice and everything, but there are things I'm much more interested in putting my energy towards. What I really want out of life is to accomplish something meaningful...

I recently got a job in the city so with commute added I'm gone about 12 hours a day and my girlfriend is home alone all day. She's searching for a job too but the market is still terrible. She's very much an extrovert and being cooped up and alone is making her very depressed. We recently moved...

I don't have any official diagnoses so I wouldn't have any supporting documentation. Nor did I know there was such a thing as a disability center...

Wish I'd thought of that before my last appointment, but looks like the earliest they can get me in to see him is 3 weeks from now...

So I suffer from crippling depression and social anxiety. If I'm not on my medication I'm unable to function. Recently my medication abruptly stopped working, I saw my doctor who increased my dose but he said it would be at least a week before it took effect. The problem is that it's already...

A while back I posted about being shallow. The woman I love is overweight and that causes issues for me. Proud to report that I learned I simply had too narrow of a definition of "sexy" and that I do find her sexually attractive. But as is common, you solve one problem only to discover another...

You're completely right. But how do I take my power back?? I got big and started beating the honeysuckle out of people who gave me problems. That seemed to put a stop to it pretty **** quick.

I'm 26 years old and as far back as I can remember, about 5 years of age, until I was 15 I was bullied. This happened across 3 different school systems by dozens of different bullies, both physically and verbally. For reasons I've never come to understand I was a natural target. I tried avoiding...

Update. I was talking today with a friend of mine about therapy. She was encouraging me to go again and in the process of discussing my aversion to it I stumbled on some emotions. When I was 12 I was having a particularly bad year in my life. I was a victim of bullying my entire childhood and...

You remind me a lot of myself. I know exactly how you feel about males. I don't like them either. For me I think it was because I was bullied as a child by all the boys but the girls were always very nice to me. And I used to have feelings for all of my female friends too, at one point or...

Speaking from my own personal tastes I get turned off when I see a woman wearing make up. Especially a lot of it. It feels like a barrier between us when what I want is to get to know her. But this is especially true with intimacy. I don't like kissing lips that have lipstick on them and I don't...

If you had to choose one or the other, which would you pick: A chance at fulfilling your life's dreams or a chance at being with your true love?

Great suggestion, but no-can-do. I moved to California from Massachusetts last year and I don't know anybody over here who is in therapy.
