hbsbucks I think I understand now, but I am not sure how often I blink while staring at a monitor. Unfortunately, I am not able to get out much. A very high percentage of my outings are medical related. When I am unwell, or in the hospital, I spend a lot of time on the...

Could you live without the Internet permanently? Could you go without the Internet for a couple of hours, days, weeks, or years? I seem to have a severe phobia surrounding lack of Internet access, even for short periods of time....

hbsbucks Thank you for your comment! :) I too have yet to see any headline resembling the phrase "spontaneous death by Internet outage", but I think I may have honestly convinced myself that it is indeed quite possible. Even the briefest of disruptions to my beloved...

hbsbucks While I appreciate your advice, I am unsure of how this would help me. Would you please elaborate? I rather enjoy technology, it is one of the few things I understand. I wouldn't be keen on giving it up.

hbsbucks Thank you for your comment! Was it very difficult to interact with others during group activity? How did you know what to say? What if someone asks you a question, and you don't know the answer? Thank you for your help! Have fun in your social pursuits! :)

hbsbucks Thank you for your reply! Is there anyway that I can know what to say to someone? I mean, I know I can't walk up to someone and recite a list of elements, (I am prone to doing things like that), but, what exactly is considered to be normal conversation?

hbsbucks I would like to travel, but I don't even get out of the house much because of my illness. My connection to the outside world relies on the Internet. I love that I am able to learn about all the places I have never visited too though! :)
