Post subject: just posting to a couple
different forums
--------------------
Im an 18 year old female that has always just
been different(my name is Kim by the way)..as
was my father and he was the only person that
understood me..when he passed away in august
my whole world crumbled and I quickly found
myself lost...
First of all! Sorry your father died. How old was he?
Hmmmmm? Let's see 18+25=43 years old!
This is my guess.
And how did he die at such a young age?
I hope you don't mind me asking these 2 questions?
I am just trying to understand you!

I am glad your smart to see past being their
guinea pig.
Hmmmmm? Why such multiple dx's? Hmmmm?
What are you autistic characteristics?

I found that when I take DXM (a cough suppresant
with effects quite like speed) I can say what Im feeling
...and better understand the way social situations work
..but there were many bad things that came along with it
Hmmmm? I am going to ask some questions here!
1)...How did you come across this DXM idea?
It sounds clever. Is it a prescription? non-prescr'?
2)...Are you on any other med's?
Sometimes things don't mix well!

..I have always had a problem with working
because I can never establish relationships
with my coworkers that make work a fun place to be
I can relate to this. 99% of my jobs fell in this
category here. What kind of jobs were they?
For me it was food service, market research,
and some computer related jobs. Mostly
customer service, and that is where I am
overwhelmed most!

...However, I recently started working with children
which makes me very happy.....What made me come
to the conclusion that I may have asperger's is that
I love working with Autistic children because I for
some reason completely understand them and have
actually helped a few children who are autistic to become
better adjusted social individuals...
I will say HFA, if Speech delay is major!
I will say PDD-NOS if minimal speech delay!
I will say AS if no speech delay, but relatively
good communciation skills.
This is of course a generalization, and will bleed to
my next question.

which unfortunately caused the people around me
to think that absolutely nothing was wrong with me
Hmmmmm?.........
Hi! I am Ghosthunter, I am HFA. I had speech delay
from 3-5 due to hearing loss that was repaired. Speech
therapy for a small part of my life, and a life time of
communication interfacing with others. I say, unless
otherwise noted....HFA is closer, maybe a PDD-NOS.
AS is a completely different creature since they had
relatively normal as possible development in the key
years I lost, and perhaps you!

and in fact I was just lazy and was looking for an
excuse to not accomplish the everyday tasks that
"normal" people can accomplish..Im not making
up my misunderstanding of socializations...I wish
that I was...it would make my life a lot easier...
Hmmmmm? What kind of incompletions?
And no! I don't think your making this up!
As a matter of fact....Welcome to WrongPlanet!

have lost many of the people around me and am
struggling with a drug problem...The love of life!Back to top
Hmmmm? is this due to the DMX stuff you mentioned
earlier? If not, feel free to elaborate. I hope you
do well on Wrong Planet!
Sincerely,
