i am better than what i think i am
i need to believe in myself
feelings are fleeting, i should not
invest much in them coz they
oftentimes lie.

I think an affirmation wouldn't have the word will.

ie. I ask for help when I need it.

I will ask for help is a statement regarding the future, not an affirmation (present tense).

Yay! I like this one (well, ALL of them!); CockneyRebel just stated Autism in sum - perfect. Autists are profession at not being afraid of being our own self.

One time, after waking for a nap, I realized I had to leave and meet some friends. However, I wasn't in the "social" mood. But I said to myself, "I must socialize, even if it kills me." It might not make much sense, but it sounded purposeful enough at the time. So I did, and it was great.

I should nt wait for approval by others
I should not care for waht people think of me
I should be less self centered. but I have to love myslef first before I can start loving others
I should be less suspiscious of other people's thoughts
But i want to be what I am and dress the way I want and stand out even if it draws attention to me, which again turns me into the centre of the world, which people hate about me
I should talk less and listen more to others, but I get easily bored with what theya re saying, what I say is so much more interesting, after all I had a life's that's full and when I die they can play 'My way'.
I should not heed envy or jealousy, but it hurts when people criticise me or badmouth me and it hurts when they misinterpret me
I am proud of my photographic memory
I am proud of my skills in art and languages and verbal expression, thanks to being an aspie and seeing the world in different angle and therfor take stances which are diametrically opposed to NTs usually.
I was born a rebel against mediocracy and half heertedness

I am strong, capable, competent, intelligent and independent.
I am not perfect, I do not need to be.
I am different from others, and thats okay.
I have been through a lot, lived horribly, lived untrue,
been petrified of my own mind, consumed by it, destroyed by it.
Damaged myself and damaged others.
I've fallen victim to myself and will probably fall again but,
I have survived and I will continue to survive.


And still freshly twenty young as it might be I've wasted so much time
my accomplishments are easily forgotten by my faults that I need to improve
What I will continually remember however is
My hell I live, I live it and its mine.
I create it, I can destroy it
And I will survive.


You have a similar mentality to me. That would have pretty much been my pledge a few years ago, when I was living on the edge.
