I'm mostly NT (okay, bipolar) and I'm responding to a couple comments about how an NT reacts to having a romantic relationship with an ASD person who has alyexthemia. I find Aspies utterly charming in their inimitable charm-free manner. I'm an Aspie fan! A wannabe. LoL. The thing I love about Aspies...

My 7 year old son has classic autism (moderate). He has recently begun some compulsive (?) behavior involving frequent urination. He still wets the bed, and I know he has some anxiety about wetting the bed. At bedtime, he gets up to go pee four or five times in a ten minute period. I'm hoping that i...

I do have some discomfort with my body, but mostly it is a sense of not being comfortable in my own skin...being self-critical. I do detest shopping ma...

Kiseki ~ thank you for your reply. I have a female client (age 8) who is having the very same issues that you had as a child...always wanting to be in control of the play. She seems very extroverted, very talkative, even though she often would prefer to play alone. You're in Japan, yes? From what I ...

I'm a counselor and I have several child clients who seem to fit the profile for Asperger's. I was wondering whether anyone here could help me understand what life is like for these children? Two of the boys that I'm seeing now have severely limited eye contact. With NT children, I would assume that...
