Title: I have autism (asperger syndrome)
Post by: Ruzbeh on March 10, 2007, 08:22:43 PM
I was told this thursday after months of testing.

A lot of stuff was involved. My parents had to be 'interviewed' as well.

My psychiatrist told me about it and also told me to look it up.

A lot of people that are autistic have low intelligence, but I have something that's called Asperger's syndrome, which is the same as autism but instead I don't have a low intelligence (rather I have a normal intelligence, or high intelligence) and that there's nothing wrong with the development of my language so I have a regular vocabulary, etc.

It's seen as something that is caused the brain which works differently that most people's brains. I'm bad at fantasy and lack imagination and I have a lot of logical and technical thinking patterns.

I have underdeveloped social skills and I don't know how to communicate with people sometimes.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asperger_syndrome (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asperger_syndrome)

There's a few positive sides, I guess. I happen to like the fact that I think extremely logical and technical. Also:

Individuals with AS may use words idiosyncratically, including new coinages and unusual juxtapositions. This can develop into a rare gift for humor (especially puns, wordplay, doggerel and satire).

Its been suggested that a large percentage of the population is autistic in some way. Not to say you were diagnosed incorrectly, but its kinda like ADD in that a lot of people who lead very successful lives have these conditions so wtf.

That's called being shy and being allowed to be shy. You'll either get fed up with it and bust out, or you'll learn that you prefer it that way.

Not all people who are shy lack social skills, some are simply inhibited from using the social skills that they posses.

I propose we change the name "Autism" to "Phoenix Dark Syndrome" or PDS. Now, lets get together and make a 10 point list that will help with finding a loved one with PDS.

My little cousin as a pretty bad case of autism.  It's pretty sad–she's nearly 7 years old and hasn't spoken once (well, she's said no and mom before).  It's like she's deaf or something.  It's really sad, the whole family has tried to communicate with her with different methods, but all she does is walk away.  She only "communicates" with her mother.

The guy who created Pokemon? Fo' serious? People with Asperger's can have terrible sense of imagination, so I wonder where he got inspired from. Or maybe he's one of those people with Asperger's that still have a good imagination.

Yeah, I gather there's a range of effects it can have. Satoshi Tajiri is often described as being very reclusive, though extremely creative. There's something very obsessive compulsive about the game, though - it's not so much creative, as it is driven.

http://www.encyclopediadramatica.com/index.php/Asperger%27s_Syndrome

how to self-diagnose for asperger's:

1) do you have social anxieties?
2) do you have lots of nerdy hobbies you think are cool, like collecting latex figurines of anime girls?
3) do you find that people call you "creepy," "icky," or "a fucking loser"?
4) do you think you're smart and special?
5) is the excuse of "i'm just depressed" not winning you any internet girlfriends?

did you answer all 5 questions yes? if so, YOU HAVE ASPERGER'S JUST LIKE THE REST OF US

As Covering Up for Being a Total Fucktard

Some close-knit communities of people, such as furries, plushies, Quakers, Jews and otherkin, possess such distorted views of reality as to be particularly susceptible to believe their ostracization is due to victimization by outside factors, and will not infrequently claim to have Asperger's or be Autistic en masse, often finding some way to tie its manifestations into the fact that they are social misfits, frequently complete assholes and fail at proper expression of affection. In certain of these instances, having "Asperger's" seems to be correlated with the posting of disgusting and semi-nude pictures of yourself frequently on the internet, or writing highly disturbed fanfiction. Additionally, it is not unheard of for these individuals to claim multiple, even incompatible diagnoses of a plethora of diseases -- possibly claiming anorexia, ADHD, autism, Asperger's, schizophrenia, OCD, and anything else they've ever read about or seen on CSI.

You know, Bill Gates has asperger's. A lot of "nerds" are social distinguished mentally-challenged fellows because they have asperger's syndrome. It's a VERY real condidtion and it's not overly diagnosed like ADD/HD.


Don't count on getting any pussy soon, bitch. Hope you're content with simping hoes like Catzgirl on the net. :lol

Although no tests have been done it seems that many Psychiatrists believe that this is the case due to his behavioral patterns, social awkwardness and ability to focus mundane shit like code for hours on end.

Ruzbeh got tested for a month tho right?

It took several appointments. And my parents were involved, because they only know how I was when I was very young, I can't remember those days of course.

People with Asperger's syndrome don't need to be the same. The problems can vary and stuff. So if you put two people with that syndrome next to each other, they can still be very different. So I don't understand the "HAHAHA LOSER" comments. Interesting to see TBS make another "YOU WON'T BE GETTING LAID ANYTIME SOON LOVERBOY" comment. That's not what I'm currently aiming for, doofus.

Don't get mad because you can't lull or creep out a woman into giving you some gash, bro.  :lol

Of course I want to get laid, like any other man with a regular sexdrive. But it's not a priority, and it's certainly not an obsession in the sense of Black Stallion's. First I just want some friends. Then I can worry about a lil lady. :-*

You don't have any friends? :(

Oye, my dick game is bonkers (no homo). Every chick I've been with has marveled at its size.

Whoa, easy there, Turbo. Don't get upset because you're a lonely motherfucker. Turn off the computer, grow some balls, and practice your social skills. Cope, bitch.

One of the advantages of what I have is I, unlike some people, take the time and look at things from a different perspective. You're annoying as fuck, constantly making out how 'inferior' I am and constantly repeating the same shit over and over such as 'grow some balls' and 'go outside'. Mostly the stereotypical shit in the same sense of saying 'get a fucking life'. But instead of pointing out how I experience these comments as amazingly fucking stupid and fucking INANE, I'll just leave you with the thought that you might have some issues yourself. Who is to say? You certainly don't seem to have any problems on the social area, but maybe you are in some other areas.

Just sayin'.

Titangraph means you caught feelings. Step ya social interaction game up, son.
