  • Lower Class Judgements

    People in Britain seem to always have a very tough attitude against the lower classes and people on low incomes. Seem to always have the right answers from high above. Yet many I don’t think could handle the tough measures they dish out. From famous people, politicians, media people, academics, and doctors. You often find…

  • Incorrect Social Moves

    I’ve noticed more since my autism diagnosis that I don’t fit in. It’s very obvious to me now I’m not displaying the right social moves to be accepted. More than I realise. I think it takes people time to accept me. Like I think in my church they seem to be warming to me. One…

  • Story of God

    Story of God

    Sitting on my bed going through the puzzle box looking for the remaining straights. On my 3rd round now. Watching/Listening to the Story of God by Morgan Freeman. Seen it a few times this series. Often makes me feel good. Done so well. Morgan Freeman just said “What do you do when you feel the…

  • My Quest is Complete

    For the last 10 years or so I have spent time investigating what mental illness and then autism meant to me. I have literally turned everything upside down like Robert Langdon in the Da Vinci Code. I have researched the DSM, psychology, 2500 years of history, economic, philosophy, the Bible, theology and many other things…

  • Bad Memory

    Sometimes I have bad memories that come to the surface. Today I was thinking of the time I passed out outside my front door at my former home. Neighbour called an ambulance who took me to hospital without my shoes, wallet and mobile phone. When I came to in hospital I don’t remember much. I…

  • Being Homeless in 2022

    I spent 4.5 month in a psych hospital and a hotel for 1.5 months homeless.I doubt many people would of handled that. What struck me when I was homeless for 6 months was peoples emotional reasoning. It seemed to be acceptable when compared to being beaten or living on the streets. To often it’s ok…

  • Proof of God

    I was thinking today what made me identify in believing God in recent years. Although the teachings of Christ are important to me. It is all the simple and complex systems out there in every sphere of knowledge that put value to me in the unseen unity of God. Every time I would research something…

  • Mental Health Call

    I had another one of these phone calls from duty yesterday. It lasted 3 minutes 17 seconds. This person was a bit more empathetic than the last one. I guess she had more time to demonstrate it. I was asked if I take drugs. I swear to God I have never smoked let alone taken…

  • Autistic Leper

    I have an interesting interplay that goes on in Church. I often explain myself to members by saying I’m Autistic. Whether that’s to reason why I don’t work or how I came to Church this year by reading the Bible in a psychiatric hospital. One has said to me they don’t use labels and another…
