Torley's life with Asperger syndrome, hyperacusis, bipolar disorder, depression, etc.

I wasn't always so happy. But things change, and you either make life happen, or it happens to you.

If you're concerned about your mental health, I recommend you explore and get professional help — it's not just a disclaimer that comedians use, it made a tremendously positive difference in my life.

What a lovely man.

You're very impressive Torley. I came to you first for your East-West CCC advice and composition skills (very cool) but this video made me smile. Kudos for your honesty and sharing, and keep up the music demos, they're great! By the way, I've had hyperacusis plus that tinnitis teakettle whistling in my head for over a decade - you know what I mean.... Wear earplugs everyone !!!

Thank You for the Video. I known many people on Second Life with this symdrome,and other such conditions.

I have always been careful to make them feel welcomed,and try to understand what they are going throught at the moment. Second Life has a haven when to come,and relax. We all have stresses in our Real Life.

I love to go the dissuction groups,and Rp sims. I seen people express extraordinary creativity,and beauty in artwork,and alien landscapes.

...have something to eat, shower, then I study music until 10. Then I study some english and italian, play a game and go to sleep. Thats it for everyday. I also get so focused on studying music that I forgot everything else, and I feel like not progressing anything. I really want to thank you for this video, and i'd love to share more information about this with you. Thanks, Math.
