7/11/2015 What a "Long, Strange Trip It's Been" Getting To Today

Hello to DS & to all my friends!
Been busy as hell over the last several months. I have overcome the Epilepsy & am now only subject to provoked seizures (FUCKING YAY!) & no longer at risk for epileptic seizures. I am divorcing my husband; I bought an Audi A4 2.0T Quattro (2008 used); I packed my NY house & NY life & moved myself & Ladybug Car to NC; sold my NY house for a $10k loss and have made great strides in learning CBT coping mechanisms for my PTSD. I have done so well in overcoming most of my PTSD behaviors that Asperger's has come to the forefront.
Well, that explains most of everything in my head, heart & behavior. My view of the world is shrouded in a very very light veil of Autism. It's not a disease, it's different wiring in the brain due to genetics- causing me to see, hear & comprehend the world from a different perspective. It is very frustrating that my next hurdle is learning the way Neurotypicals think & behave.
I'd like to be done with hurdles. But, it wouldn't be life without hurdles, would it?
Love to all!
