Anything is possible if you’re determined enough. The side of a spoon acts as a good cutting tool, plus as I tend to take longer to eat I get fuller faster rather than mindlessly eating. I don’t eat meat, so that helps.

Imagine waking up one day and realising you’re different to everyone else around you, this might happen at an early age because you have supportive people around you, or it might happen in your 20s when you’re leaving home for the first time to join the big world around you, or it might happen later in life.

It takes you years to realise you are different, because you grew up like this and as a child you think everyone feels and thinks the same. You learnt to mask all those differences because you want to fit in, but you don’t really fit in very well because most of it is an act. You’re a lonely child, and you feel alone a lot of the time, but this is ok because there is comfort in being alone.

Imagine having to act differently to how you feel every waking hour of your life when you are around people. It’s exhausting, it’s very debilitating. I wish I could go back in time and explain to myself that everything will generally be ok, but I doubt I would have listened as almost every waking moment was spent in fight or flight mode.

I grew up in the 80s, and much like the 70s unless it was really obvious there was a problem, you were generally left to yourself. I am self diagnosed because it can take years for a diagnosis without having money. Would it help if I were given a formal diagnosis? Perhaps, it might help with giving myself a break more often, I might be more compassionate to myself when I struggle with normal things. Ultimately though, I will still struggle with those things, perhaps I would be given more support, I doubt it though.

When I read your first question I felt it was a bit insulting, but I hope it comes from a good honest place and you’re not just being ignorant on purpose.

I only eat with a spoon, I gave up using a knife and fork about 5 years ago. I also cannot eat any hot food with my hands.

People at work were very weirded out when they saw me using a spoon to eat a pizza.

No Deckheads? I’m disappointed.

Probably not what you’re after, but you did ask for best. You can’t go wrong with Q Acoustics M20.

Pros:

  • They sound amazing
  • They are a stereo pair
  • They support aptX, aptX HD, aptxLL, SBC & AAC
  • They have a load of inputs, so not just BT
  • They look very pretty

Cons:

  • They are fairly pricey
  • They are mains powered so not that portable

If you’re swapping out the SSD make sure to remove the SD card first.

Have you heard Metempiric by Knoll? One of my favourite bands around right now. I guess they’d be described as blackened grindcore. Intense, extreme, and beautiful record.
