I wonder if there is therapy available for adults on the Autism spectrum? I don’t date because of the very fact that I am not acclimated to the Human Touch. This means that I can get sensory overload on what other people would regard as basic physical affection. Are there reliable therapies available, to let Autistic adults join the dating world in a functional fashion?

I listen in outside the door at my son’s school and I hear him being told,you are not paying attention over and over again. If he forgets to pick up his folder the teacher said did you forget your folder in a strong tone ,not very nice sounding. He tries very hard to please he does not complain but I am the one who does not think this is good. Am I wrong?

Kids around 10-15 it seems i never see older people with austism but I’m not sure and I wanted to know really badly what other people know and think.

He became HIV+ about 18 yrs ago. He has lived a very good life, But these last few years his light has started to fade, he has become very ill. But even now he is still part of HIV & AIDs awareness.
But these last couple of years you hardly hear anything about aids awareness. I hear more about smoking from those truth group then anything else.
So I have an idea that i need help with. I want to cause awareness in the best way i know how, throw my photography. I would like to take photos of people with HIV & AIDs here in the U.S. of all races, all ages and all sexual orientation, and all stages. I want to say Look at all these different people that suffer from this disease. Not just blacks, or gays but all types of people. I want to give You a voice with out saying a word. I know it its a big project but i’m hoping to get this project out there and once done, into some galleries and hopefully raise some money for HIV & AIDs awareness.

I live in Dallas and that’s where this project will start. Please anyone willing to help or give me info on where i can go to get my project started and/or get some funding
