Just to let you know

I have been through a lot over the past 6 years.
I have been called everything from Autistic to Paranoid-Schitzophroid.
It seems I was not extreme enough in any particular direction to merit final judgement.
Anyhow, the reason I am sort of OK now, I think, is that (cue cliche) I never gave up hope that things would be better some day (and some months were seriously bad!).
Working out strategies, staying cool and level headed, not beleiving evrything I saw or heard.

Tips (Take 'em or leave 'em!)

1. Don't worry too much about what other people think (but don't do things to annoy them)
2. Not everyone will understand what you are talking about, but give it time and they might
3. You may be wrong, in some respects or in totality.
4. If in doubt, sit on the fence (balancing there can be difficult, especially when people are knocking you), and if you fall off, get back on it
5. Keep moving, don't stop in one place for too long (mentally or physically)

Cheers
