Just like it says above.

I'm diagnosed with Aspergers, but I don't actually think Aspergers exists. Sort of. I'm interested in people who think in pictures, and wonder if they simply aren't suited to spoken languages and latin characters. Maybe Heiroglyphs?

Other interests (related to Autism, Neurodiversity, and the like): people displaying Rogue syndrome (a desire to be cured because of percieved disadvantages), causes (there's likely to be more than one, a common effect does not imply common cause), and the actual differnces between NTs, Aspies, Auties, and the rest of humanity (only reason I say this is because I can't be bothered naming each individual 'syndrome')

Other interests (not Autism related): space travel, science fiction, fantasy (I'm a non-published author :D ), poetry, music (I must confess I like Dragonforce), bioengineering, politics, philosophy (this overlaps with my Autism related interests), Neuroscience....

Hello everyone and this is my first time in Wrong Planet.

Like many of you, I do have Asperger's Syndrome, although, I have been denying this for about 10 years. It is very rough for me going through this condition and most of you have been going through this condition from general fear of people to limited speech. For all intents and purposes, I don't consider it a big issue when ever I'm out and about. I usually brush it aside and rarely speak about it until now.

As for my personal interests I have a variety of hobbies that includes swimming, walking, reading books and magazine on science, learning foreign languages which includes Spanish, Italian, French, and German and eventually three years from now, I will be visiting Europe and the UK which I am definitely looking forward to :D

Hi Magneto,
Welcome to Wp.
I have never heard of Rogue syndrome and now I'm tempted to go and do some of my own research about it. I'm also interested in science fiction and poetry.
I hope you enjoy posting here.
