You've heard of it?
I had a doctor there when I was a kid. My mom didnt like it...
Your mom's lucky. She didn't have to attend.
It's one thing to make a spectacle. It's another to make a difference.
She thinks I changed after I started taking drugs they prescribed me. I'm a little skeptical

Unfortunately, and especially because some of the medications' mechanism of action it doesn't make sense that it cures what you've got under some of the theories of how the mind works, changing who you are during your developmental years really might not be a good thing.

Soo... These days I have been feeling kind of alone despite that I am with my family all the time.
Mostly because (1) Most of the things I like have no interest in my family, (2) They are busy with their stuff most of the time, And (3) I dont have any off-line friends.
...Sorry for putting this here but I dont want to tell this to my family. (Still, They are not bad people.)

Yeah. None of my family can properly relate to my hobbies, and I have no offline friends.
Plus, I have to keep several secrets about myself from them, because they would never understand.

Why did we have to be social animals?

That's bad?

No, it's great. I personally love being a part of a social species. A species where members don't frequently collaborate with other members of the species won't achieve much.

I keep fighting with myself on whether or not I should've tried making friends. I also keep fighting with myself on whether or not I should blame them for pitying me/being disgusted with me enough to try and change who I was, or me for changing myself to please them and forgetting who I was and just becoming this painful amalgamate of shit.
I'm constantly conflicted about being apart of a social species. It's probably just me being stupid, though; on a wider scale, it's helped others much more.

I'd be more fond of it if social interaction didn't scare the piss out of me/people didn't piss me off half the time.
In what ways, or for what, did they pity you or be disgusted with you?
My online friend (the one I called "Bow" on here previously) said that people tend to either really like her, or really hate her. I've noticed some of that in my own life.

I was an obnoxious, weird kid who didn't want friends and talked to their stuffed animals. Apparently, I thought people were rude, (read: fucking awful), so I chose not to deal with them. My teachers were either disgusted with behavior they deemed "anti-social" or pitied me because they saw me as lonely.
Parents agreed with them after a bit. Apparently 3rd grade was dedicated to "Building Social Skills". Can't remember a lot of things around that time, though.

Maybe I'm just being bitter and since I don't remember a lot of things around that time, don't know what I'm talking about.
I do know I get incredibly anxious/angry when I try to remember things that far. Hurts my head.
Mom used to tell me about things that happened when I was younger. I'll probably ask her when I'm on better terms with her.

Well, that's different from me. I literally didn't want friends. I'm sure people got angry at me for stuff back then but I wasn't paying attention.
Feel weird posting on this and being not an aspie.
For those who are interested, later tonight (8 PM Eastern US time), this group here
will be watching a hilariously So Bad, It's Good movie that just has to be seen to be believed. Some "educational" kids' movie about the dumbest mascot ever, about how to deal with bullies, guns, bullies with guns, and also showing off the Hollywood parade and the director/writer's money because hey why not.
Here's the amazing trailer (and no, this is not a parody):
Anyone want to join us? No need to sign up or anything, just step right in. Click that link to see a bit of what we're about. We riff bad movies in a chat room.
If you want the direct link to the chat room itself, it's this. You can stop in even before or after the movie has started! (we tend to watch videos in a "pre-show" before the movie starts for a good 45 minutes, but again, you can enter and leave at any time)

...why the hell not. For old time's sake, and because I missed my chance to watch this with another movie group from a different forum.
It's one thing to make a spectacle. It's another to make a difference.
Sweet.
And feel free to invite anyone else you like, including the people from that other forum!
The movie itself is about to start! Anyone can enter early or even late!
It starts in 24 minutes, but nothing's stopping people from coming in when they feel like.
It's at http://cytu.be/r/TroperCoven for the room itself, or check the previous post for a link to the thread for the group that watches these movies every night.
