I am a high-functioning autistic and aspie young adult - physically, at least. However, my dad and I place my mental development somewhere in the middle school to very early high school range. I am also diagnosed with OCD, ADD, depression, and anxiety. I have suffered the loss of one of my sisters to suicide when she was seventeen and I was twelve and a half. I say all of this so that those who bother to look here, for whatever reason, might take a minute before saying anything disparaging. A lot of my work is based on and is a manifestation of my emotions, and are written when I am in a highly emotional state. Especially those about my sister. Please, I beg you, be careful of what you say, though I welcome any and all comments and considerate, constructive criticism. I am much better than I used to be in regards to my depression, but it is a constant battle and even today I have thought about cutting, even if it is in passing. Jesus is my Rock, and I do my best to remember that I am here for a reason, but I am not always successful.
