Could bipolar people also be 'on the spectrum'? I had a natural birth (oxygen could have been cut off to my brain during birth?)

I'm not the kind of 'trendy' bipolar, although my cunt of an aunt believes I have 'convinced' myself of that, despite being to the nuthouse twice (50 days total) and several psycho-shinks having diagnosed me with several other mental disorders; the very first nuttyness I got diagnosed with was of course, ADD/ADHD. I was given...

Feeling lost and cut off at times and want someone to talk to about it.

II have thought about this off an on for a while, and decided I will talk more about it here since I haven't been able to find a more welcome place for someone who is considered spiritual and on the autistic spectrum. I'm not even sure what the right place is though as there are times I tend to feel lost in more ways than one...

Has anyone ever seen the TV show "Scorpion"? ( en.wikipedia.org )

It's a bit of an older show (2014-2018), and while it doesn't mention autism specifically, it does center around several people who are clearly neurodiverse, using their unique strengths to solve a wide range of complex and difficult problems while also trying to navigate their individual challenges when interacting with the...

What's a moment in your life where you felt fully alive?

I am reading "Unmasking Autism" by Devon Price and the introduction has an exercise that requires you to come up with 5 moments in your life where you felt fully alive. I have spent the better part of yesterday trying to remember such moments, but I am not even sure what it means... I was hoping the community here can provide...

Feeling somewhat worried and on autistic spectrum ( lemmy.world )

Hi, I have recalled that I had been invited to post here sometime ago while I had some other issue going on, which I think it involved Reddit. Right now, I'm feeling okay, but perhaps feeling a little worried, and I'm wondering if I could talk about it here even though I'm on the spectrum as I had been diagnosed in the past with...
