Stupid Guest Tricks

Churchy is a sweet loving person who is shy at times, but when one gets to know her, they find out more about her, and she is a good person. There are some issues that make it hard for her to get out and about, but when she does It's nice to see her doing something fun instead of staying at home, getting her name yelled at her every few minutes by a needful mother.

(Mom is also a great person too, in spite of her needing help a lot of the time)

Walk a mile in Churchy's shoes, please? She gets depressed easily, and needs friends that are willing to meet her halfway, such as meeting away from the resort. Her reasons are valid of why she won't come back to the Parks- not liking how she was treated by park security.

Even if you disagree with that, can't you try and understand how she feels?

What she has, once she knows you, she'll share her heart... I've been over to her house with my hubby when he's been fixing her computer, and they go out, get food, and they come back and she has a stuffed animal for me or roses from her yard, or from a grocery store.

Next up--- Yours truly... Or someone else who wants to post...

I hide a lot about me that you can read in my journals. Those journal entries are the first time I talked about things that not even my closest friends or family know about. As stated the diabetic cannot feel the pain of a cut or a blister but people do not scream at them. I on the other hand cannot sense when I am in trouble. I hate unfair things. Why can someone do that but not me? I trust too easily strangers once I get to know them. I have trouble adjusting to new things.

Read up on SID. I have never been diagnosed for any mental illness or handicap. In fact I had to go out to a celiac event and get tested for free and on my own. I have a lot wrong with me physically but I try never to bring that up as why make them sad. I first knew about SID about a year ago but thought it was just my weird eating habits then I read the above site. I have been told that I have autistic tendancies but am not autistic. This is because there is a high rate of SID in autistic kids. How bad is it?

My list:
# Intense, out-of-proportion reactions to everyday experiences
# Resists changes in routines and moving from activity to activity
# Unusually high or low activity level
# Difficulty handling frustration
# Seems impulsive, with little or no self-control
# Problems paying attention and staying focused
# Dislikes getting "messy" - cheap napkins irk me and I have food issues related to this
# Has poor balance, falls often, or runs awkwardly
# Seems weaker or less coordinated than other children his age
# Doesn't seem to hear you, although you know he can hear
# Withdraws, "tunes out," or cries in group situations
# Avoids foods most children of same age enjoy
# Craves or avoids particular food textures-chewy, crunchy, slippery, etc.
# Frequently chews on clothing or hair (stopped as a kid)
# Poor handwriting and drawing skills
# Speech-language, motor skill, or learning delays
# Inconsistent sleep and hunger patterns
# I love snug clothes but not over tight.
=======================================

Needs and wants
Don't pity me as I am not that bad off and will adapt

understand that I am not willfully doing some things and that it is a natural thing for me to do like resisting change.

Watch over me. When I am tired or stressed then SID is bad. I need admins and mods to delete posts when needed. if I am making you uncomforable then tell me in private.

NO MEANS NO. Something happened at Disneyland which was my haven of rest and pease and fun. That is in the past. The problem is that I will not go near the parks. The last time was when I stopped for much needed gasoline. SID is 99% of this. When something bad happens then I shutdown and will not go to that spot again. I was not in trouble at Knotts but I have not been back since before the riots. I just was not happy there and bored. The only way I am going back to DLR is if they give me full pardon, a full annual pass AND an appology for the heineous stalking and harrassment by one CM and 5 others. Even then I would need someone big like CB and Wallaby and kind like MS Matterhorn and Purpura. I have thought about what if I was a billionaire, could I go back, not without bodyguards and strong enterage with me.

I at times feel like the little girl sitting on the porch while her friends are inside partying. The little boy who cannot climb up into the tree house. I do not want special treatment but at the same time I hope that people would do unto me and I would do onto them. My friend asked that I drive so I did and if my friend said we could not eat in a certain place then so be it. I guess SID has warped my ideas of Freinds.

Gifts, yep, a trip to WDW and an ECV and chocolates and ice cream and a pony farm. Actually I have no needs and want nothing from my friends. I had a CM friend who got me into a CM preview once and another CM got me into a movie free on his birthday. I really do not want gifts but do want friends and angels. I do still have the gifts that friends over the years gave me like Figment and them pins are on my bookcase. I never want anyone to think I am using them to get something.

I am tired and need to rest.
Hugs
Laurie
Read the Journal please.

My list

We all hide much abt ourselves. Hell, one of your best friends called me a chicken due to my choice to be alone. As for your list, many have perhaps 3 or 4 of those traits. At least they are not life threatening. mech, you are much more blessed than many many guests I give extra time & smiles too.

I do definitely know how lucky I am. People pity me for not being able to eat donuts, coffee cake, pies, and bread but I say that I rather have celiac than cancer or lupus. I am mightily blessed in what I do not have. They are not life threatening usually but they can greatly impact my life. Also that whole list is what I admit to and know about. I just think it is time for people to know what is wrong with me. So they know that I am not a monster but just a malfunctioning person who wants to fit in and be part of the world not living on Misfit Island.

There is nothing wrong with wanting to be alone but I am alone by choice and still find the company something I miss.

I told Churchy that reading her journal will help us to understand ( myself included).
I don't know if you have the time or ability to see a doctor about some of these things, to help with them or prevent them from getting worse, but it is not a bad idea. I have anxiety about things I shouldn't worry so much about, and the MD gave me medication that doesn't zone me out, just takes the edge off the worry so I can sleep and not obsess :) Like I said, we all have our quirks, but sometimes we need a little help with them. Just being a caregiver is stress enough!
SGT is a great stress reliever for me as well, my "habit" that makes me laugh and forget things for a while :p:

Did I see the words Deviant Tart on one message.
wow, kinky...

I thought that's what it said, too. But it's actually Deviant Art. Clean your glasses drcorey, you dirty ol' man, you. ;)

Oh oh, busted again. Here's the result.



Do you know what the Thinker is thinking about?

"Hmmmmmmmm, where'd I leave my pants?"
