I was so tired I couldn't think of any words at all. I fully understand why you get so scaredAmandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09594327337549020199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8102447705824989485.post-65243082851055714632009-09-09T09:33:00.270-04:002009-09-09T09:33:00.270-04:00Amanda, so many people with autism, or so many peo...Amanda, so many people with autism, or so many people without it, about the four hours?

Four hours seems to be the magic number for working or being out of the house, so many people I speak to have the same time span.<br /><br />I'm so proud of you being able to write this post, even when you feel so despaerate, to share your thoughts is a valuable gift. You may need to take this a step further as Kate suggested and show it to people, including your boss, to make people more aware of what's going on.<br /><br />I'm certain your words will return, and all the time you can type, they're not really so far away. <br /><br />I also wanted to let you know you have really inspired me and given me back the drive to help my Bear find her words more often. I've got my determination back and also my voice to fight for her when she can't.<br /><br />Hang in there Lydia, at the end of the day, the store is not the only option and if people know how you're doing they can help.Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09594327337549020199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8102447705824989485.post-24389570443325337432009-09-08T17:49:33.515-04:002009-09-08T17:49:33.515-04:00Can you show the people in your life this diary en...Can you show the people in your life this diary entry? Then I bet they would understand a bit better as it is very well written. Can you write what you feel instead of trying to speak it? Sometimes it is easier that way and you seem to still be able to write when you can't be verbal so that is a good thing for you.Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04931944728963114472noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8102447705824989485.post-83929504070796348832009-09-08T13:44:24.330-04:002009-09-08T13:44:24.330-04:00I am so worried for you, my poor Lydia.

Get some help before you get hospitalised again?<br /><br />I'm keeping you in my thoughts.Annicleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06691832473765718313noreply@blogger.com
