Good to hear from you again, Woolie. Hang in there and get this situation sorted out. You can always come here for comic relief.

You are nice guys but i see you do not understand how can big brains understand no brains ,that would be like t rex knowing us, i just hope i can hold on to some modicum of intelligence

You could go to adult high school programs and refresh those basic math and physics skills (if you need to). It might even alleviate your social anxiety after you get used to being there.

The more you feed that thing, the more it will consume you.

Yeeeesssss, that's what will increase your sociability - math and physics skills.

It works so well for the rest of us.

Heh, true. I get what you're saying but it's just one suggestion.

Here's the thing, he could do that, or he could go to some sports team...or some bar.
I just assumed his case was so severe he wouldn't really gain anything from a sports team, other than possibly get bullied (no offense wolram, I'm in the same spectrum as you; I think my existence is meaningless).

Dave i have no life as i am scared to even go out my door

Sounds pretty severe.


At least in a classroom setting the social stimuli would be so faint as not to overload him. Just being around with people in the public is a huge difference than being locked up in your room all day. Maybe he'll meet someone his age and become study buddies...

I have a mental issue that is causing a slow decline in mental activity, does anyone know a way to slow this decline i sure hate not knowing, love wolram

Umm, it's not schizophrenia is it? I was assuming it was social anxiety or agoraphobia.
Maybe your short-term memory has dwindled - what do you do for a living, wolram? Maybe it's worth trying this?

You have many friends, Wolram, I count myself among them although I am a new one. I couldn't help feeling touched by your posts. So that our suggestions can be more specific, tell us -- what is your diagnosis? Love & concern, Fortsummit

I live with schizoaffective disorder, which often gets better with time. Personally "if I were you" (and I am not a doctor), I would visit a neurologist listed with my insurance plan or likewise recommended by my current doctors.

Beforehand, check where the neurologists went to medical school, how they stand with the state medical board, and if they are affiliated with a teaching hospital (university medical center.) Then make your best choice, at your own risk (but much better than doing nothing).

Did you here about a sheep that escaped from an Australian sheep farm? They found it a year later, with something like 70 pounds of extra wool to shear. It must have looked like the classmates in my 1977 yearbook!
