Hello there!
I ended up here much by chance(wasn't even googling for Asperger at the moment). I never could stand those chat channels but a webboard is more up my ally!
I'm not sure whether I should stick around much since reading about AS usually seduces me away from the NT life I try to lead. Yeah, I'm an NT imitator.
So. A little about myself then: Male, Swedish, 25 yrs old, currently in university, have most of the symptoms though mild.
Like many others I discovered AS a few years ago and pretty much found the explanation to all my oddities(needn't go into that experience as it would bore everyone to tears).
Hobbies/obsessions: Webboards, Online Poker, movies, debate, acting, imitating and humor.
AS Survival SK1LZ0rrS: Humor and uncomfortable truth(often combined).
Highschool: Made it through because of the hordes of geeks in my year. Bless them! PS. We were so many that even the girls were forced into playing Doom.
Wishes for: A place like army service was. A system so forced on you that you automatically achieved rationality and high function. Automatic friendship was an enormous plus too. You could even ignore them when you wanted as there was always someone else to hang out with. When they all bunked in front of Temptation Island, I had to visibly read Dostojevsky in protest but apart from that it was fine.
Anyone still reading? I so like the sound of my own words! I'll try to be brief but I can't give you any promises. I'll try and be patient with your essay long posts but I must say that I ignore everything that I don't find interesting, no matter how much hart you put into it. This of course because the universe centers around me in case you didn't know!
