I'm starting to accept...

That I may have AS.

I think I may need this diagnosis taken for everyone else's sake. Yeah I filled up the application awhile ago. I think my mom is mad at me for everything I have said and done. She just won't let it go. I think if I was diagnosed, she would leave me alone and so would everyone else.

The thing is, I already know how I work, but I don't think my own mom knows how I work too well, yeah she sort of gets a hint, because I think she's a bit of an aspie herself, but she seems to be really mad at me about something and I don't know what.

I don't really need the diagnosis for my own benefit. It's more for everyone else I understand me I suppose.

Well, with the diagnosis people can't say you just thinking you have it.

Oh, and it accept, except it to excluded

Wait a mintue! I just realized I used "except" wrong, I meant "accept" duurrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

I just spoke with my mom about her not beliving in me and all that. It was a nice disscussion actually and we still respect one another.

Hmm - someone changed the title to the correct spelling ... Was there any real need for this to be done?

It's okay, I changed it.

Application? What application?

An application so I can get diagnosed. It's basically a survey I had to fill out so the person that will diagnose me will get an idea of what I am about.

Oh. I hate applications. There the worst part about trying to get a job. Well, that and the interview.

I hope you find peace with yourself and your diagnosis.

accept faster nah just learn to handle it make things easier. not that you cant already but handle other peoples reaction is probably the hardest thing sometimes.

I don't know how to handle it. Every time I make a mistake I blame it on my LDs or the "possiblity" I have AS.

You cant really blame a syndrom for a mistake. But you can use the syndrom to get some kind of guide lines to help understand yourself. try to notice when people seem to react in another way than you though they would. and remember what you did there might have caused the reaction.

I'm sorry, but what you are saying isn't really isn't helping. That's just it, I don't learn from my mistakes. Every time I make one I think I'm stupid and I hate myself for it.

Sry about that then.

but dont hate yourself for anything. thats never going to do anything good anyway.

Rememer it's humanly to make mistakes ..
I see my AS as a posive thing, a gift. (Well I ain't got the excatly diagnose yet, but i'm gonna get tested in november),
It's a way to show why you are as you are. You got a paper, a diagnose that tells you - Why you're different.

I've been talking to many aspies, that blames their AS for a lot of stuff.. But I've just been giving the advise - Try seeing AS as a positive thing, and then be pleased over, that you got that gift as you have, when you're having AS.
