So, if converted to real life sentences, he helped a prison break, thne walked up to an officer, spat in his eye, punched him in the gut, and ran off.
That's not what happened. You probably shouldn't take such an inflammatory stance on that, as there's a bit of a divide over whether he should have been banned at all.

No.  That is not who I am.  I am a different person.

So, today I got accused of ignoring people when I, you know. Can't talk?

I can't make time for you guys if you won't make time for me. I can't just blab off like you guys can and just do everything so reflexively. You need to GIVE ME TIME and none of you will have that. And I'm still sad over it since I just don't know if they're somehow right and it makes it feel like my fault for being disabled.

... I can't believe I'm actually considering trying to move out of here over this...

Hurgh, this. Hate it when people do that. Fuck, I've been the person doing that, and at least in my experience it's just a passive-aggressive attention grab. Hooray for guilt trips, right? Although, hell, I don't even have the problems you do. So my experience in being on the receiving end really isn't close, I imagine. It might not even be the same problem, really, but you don't have to feel like you're inherently a worse person.

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

If it's that much of a problem, you'd best leave. It'll probably help you immensely. I'm facing a similar situation and I think removing myself from it entirely is the best option.

I seriously am considering just going to make a point. But that has some problems. Fist off being, I'd be without methods to buy my medications. And if I really was on my own I think I'd go crazy. I'm not used to being alone anymore. And even then, it's not everyone doing it so I'd be punishing the members of my little family that are innocent too.

There's no easy answers and I'm not actually in a position to offer any good advice, so I just hope it works out.

You might just be going through a rough period with them, it happens in long-term relationships. Leaving is a fairly drastic measure, not that it isn't always unwarranted, but if you decide to do that make sure that you don't have any chance at all of working through these things with your family first.

Yeah. I'm thinking I'm gonna try and show them it's not easy as they think it is for me and see if that works towards fixing it. If not I'm just going to go find work somewhere, save up for a cheap apartment and take my daughter and go. Because being disabled in this way isn't at all as easy to deal with as most people think. Since it entirely hinges on others being willing to deal with you.

What exactly happened? I seem to have missed that entry.

Sorry to hear you're having troubles anyhow, though.

I'm at least attempting to fix some of the "Behavioral" problems they brought up while also trying to show them not being able to speak isn't just a silly quirk. First off I need to reset my sleep schedule since I've been oversleeping. Then I need to be more ready to remove myself from situations and less stationary. And last I need to attempt to reach out to them in my own way to prove to them, I'm the one being ignored. Not them.
