Hey
My name is Beanie and im 19
I havent been diagnosed and didnt really know what aspergers was till a few weeks ago. I dont get on with doctors to well and Im sure I have "drama Queen" in my notes as Im always getting told theres nothing wrong (then getting diagnosed years later).

The resons I think I might be an aspie are

Very Bad social skils, better one to one, but usless in a room

I have very bad consentration untill something catches my attention then i can do it day and night till i pass out, forgetting meals.

I have very bad sleep patterns and always have to have some sort of sensory thing like a dvd playing, audio book going, and I have to have a heavy duvet/cover on me

I see things but it takes a while to sink in. Like i will see a comb in the kitchen but my brain sees it in the hall when i walk in there a second or 2 later. The same with hearing, Im always asking "what?" when some one says somthing, By the time ive said "what?" what theyve said has sunk in.

I cant just do one thing at a time, Unless im engrossed, I can easly watch a film paint ad surf the net .

I dont have a routeen but I HATE having my plans changed, If Ive desided or being told Im having pizza then it gets changed to burgers I get really upset screaming and crying for up to 3 hours. small things like forgeting letuce in Fajitas and cooking a different brand of spegettie so it feals slightly diffeent in my mouth. can cause HUGE problems.

I like to have my green plate or kellogs soccor bowl. If its just me and mum eating then I can cope without ushally unless ive had a stressfull day but If ive gotta have em I gotta have them!

I like repatition, same song over and over, same movie over and over, same food over and over.

I self stim to mainly shaking my foot or grinding my teath or slurping drinkd in a secific way.

If im unfarmiliar or scared with a situation I become mute(either volantary or involentary), and much prefer to sign

Im not good at picking up body language or i mis interprit it. ad if some one says be honest i AM honest and get in to trouble! Im always getting acused of being self involved and blunt not considering others fealings. Wich is not my intetion!


I think thats it!

What do you think? Am i compleatly wrong in thinking i might hav AS? Or is there somthing in it?

thankns
Beanie
