| Hi, CanadianCyanide! My question is, do your parents know you're being bullied? Maybe you think it's crazy to tell your parents. I used to think that when I was your age. But I'll tell you one of my experiences with bullying. When I was eleven (and didn't know that I was autistic at all), I was bei... |

| It's cool that you are into design Is it all computer program. It could be wood based CO2 cars. Back in middle school I had a weird connection with my older me. Older me told me it would be OK eventually. I'm the older me know which is weird. Does your school have clubs. Can't remember if I asked. ... |

| Do you ever talk to the guidance counselor about ways you can make friends and lessen or stop the bullying? While being bullied isn't your fault, maybe there are ways you could learn to fit in better with classmates. Or maybe you could post on this forum about specific situations or patterns you no... |

| I don't know if she was trying to hide it from you by posting it on Twitter. That part could easily be a coincidence or have no relation to you. But blocking you on Twitter, and saying she was busy when she had time to hang out with other people aren't good signs. Like everyone else has been saying,... |

| Since my original post, I realized that W was picking on me and then apologizing and saying he was my friend, so I've stopped being friends with him. In the past I would fight back when S was deliberately starting a fight with me (e.g. shoving), but the issue is that now that he's a lot bigger than ... |

| Thanks so much for all of the advice! I'll definitely try everything today and see how it goes. I had a horrible time in middle school and high school, but I didn't know I had ASD. One big mistake I made was not having enough confidence and letting others pick on me. I didn't really know how to fit ... |

| I've been in a similar situation when I was in Jr. High and High School. I hung out with people who would act mean to me and within a short amount of time they would act really friendly towards me. I thought that it might eventually stop, but it never did. I think if W is still being mean to you th... |

| If people laugh at you for getting beaten up, you should really try to find a new school or community. Also, don't you have parents, family members, teachers, or relatives you can talk to? You should definitely talk to the police if you're being attacked and bruised daily as that is physical assault. |

| Honestly, if your father is trying to make you exit a program where you're getting helped by rewarding you with taking you to see relatives, that's not very healthy. Your father seems like he is taking a bad approach to this by putting you into a school where you might not do well (Unless there's a ... |

| First off, eavesdropping and throwing the bottle at him aren't okay. I get if it's a bit tempting to eavesdrop, but it's really not a good idea as it's strongly frowned upon by most people, especially neurotypicals. For the Snapple bottle, you shouldn't have brought violence into it, especially not ... |

| Before we get into this, I'm gonna ask that you read the whole post and give me advice, especially if you've been in my shoes. I'll try to keep it short, but sorry if it's a bit lengthy and emotional. Pretty much, I've always had issues with bullying and friends because of my Aspergers, and lately i... |

| Personally, I would do it in person if possible. As for what to say, maybe just tell her exactly what you put in the post about how you have Aspergers and how you feel comfortable around her. |
