i'm just a ret*d girl
who learned how to read and write
and put on makeup and tie her own shoelaces
forget asperger's i'm just f*****g ret*d. i don't know anything. i don't even know how to be nice to people. i don't know how to be considerate.
of course every nice man i meet is going to try to get into my pants and dispose of me later.
why would anyone care about someone who can't show that they care about others?
i'll be alone forever
i might as well just kill myself next week after finals. college was hell anyway, and where is it going to get me? my own parents hate me.
i've been cursed and i know it. i don't care how emo and pathetic i sound. i'm begging for help even though i won't know how to respond. i need someplace to cry with someone who is also crying.

<3 I sent you a PM, I heard about some of your problems, I want to help in what ways I can. Please respond, maybe chat on IM or something?

Honestly? I really think this may help ya. The party scene isn't really the place for a girl with aspergers. I'm not sure how much I can help you with whatever you are going through. Know that I've been there before, but I don't know anything about you!

Talk about irony: I wake up from restlessness realizing I'm going to need medication to sleep tonight, and then I see your cry for help. I'll try to stay up a bit more

Happy thoughts,

Ernest.

It doesn't matter to me what your diagnosis is. I see you as a wonderful and interesting person.

stretching the definition, many people can be thought of as being mentally ret*d in some manner. successful but arrogant people are mentally ret*d in the cognitive area of compassion. so when i see a captain of the universe [self-styled or otherwise] swaggering about and running roughshod over the rest of us, i see somebody with a dark region in their brain. i'm mentally ret*d regarding success in life, IOW been down so long i don't know what up is.
so to the OP, i would hope that one takes a good look in the mirror and learns to say to one's self, "self, i'm an ok human being! i am not worth one iota less than any other mere mortal on this whole planet! i am my own best company! i am my own best friend!" think of the freedom you will find just as soon as you disenthrall yourself from the empty pursuit of mediocre esteems of other mere humans! snatch utility from the jaws of futility!

Someone told me that I should never compare how I feel on the inside to how other people look on the outside. Most people wear masks and you can't tell what's going on inside them. They may seem confident, and inside they feel like they are falling apart. Give yourself a break. I always felt like people were judging me too harshly, but my harshest critic was myself. I used to go on about "if only people understood me..." OK what if they did understand me? How would they treat me, kinder, be more patient, more encouraging? I don't understand a lot about myself, but I am the leading expert on myself. So I try to treat me like I always hoped people would if they "understood me" I try to be patient, and kind, and gentle with myself. If you are finishing college you have made it further than I could. I'm guessing you are exhausted, and stressed and burnt out. I have had friends who went though something like this at the end of college. Hang in there.

I'll admit that often I'm critical of myself as a person and several times have seen myself as being mentally-retarded for, not being able to re-create the sucess of what I see in other in my own life.. Honestly, you should not give up hope on yourself as person even if there might be people whom make you feel less human and all..I wished I was better at giving advice thought this is my utmost best attempt at such..Still, you should simply go by what you feel is meaningful unto you as a person and not let other people try to define you in some in-accuate, false perception.Understand I hope?
