What is the worst thing anyone has said about your "con

Wow, you should have told her "She is the one who uses men for their money so she wouldn't have to work."

Although geologists make $75,000 in their first year, I hope I never come across a woman who only uses people for money.

I did. On several occasions. And believe it or not, but she actually admitted to it, and not only that... no, she also said she was PROUD of it. Because, in her view, that's what "beautiful women" should do "when they are clever enough".
I'm not making this up!! This actually happened.

I truly hope you never will!
I stayed in that relationship for several months, even though she was obviously plundering me (not that I'm so rich, but she did it anyway, wanted me to take her to fancy restaurants and buy her clothes and things like that - I loaned the money). At the time, I was desperate and frustrated because no women wanted to date with me, so I was an easy victim for this parasitic woman...
Well, I learned my lesson. Not everyone can be trusted...

I don't have a formal diagnosis, but some of the things that were said about me were:

"Are you ret*d?" (This was from bullies who were at the bottom level of the class. I had good grades in school, but must have appeared strange."

"Why can't you...?"

"You're hopless" (From a school psychologist)

The worst is from myself. I think constantly, "Why, despite above average intelligence and four college degrees, can't you do simple things?"

"It's all an act, isn't it?" - One of my friends. She still thinks I just put it on in order to get acadamic support goodies. I've generally avoided anything *that* bad, because most people I know have been very understanding.

A bully at my school in grade 9 once came up to me with 1 or 2 friends and asked, "Are you mentally challenged?" I said, as innocently as I could, "No, are you?" She stormed off to her friends for their support, relaying the story as though I was tthe rudest person in the world for saying "No; are you?", basically marvelling at my nerve; how dare I call HER mentally challenged when she called me mentally challenged?


The "You're hopeless" thing is awful too, especially from someone who is supposed to be a professional in helping people. My mother has called me hopeless on several occasions, as has my father.

0o0o0o0o0o0o apsergers what fake disorder. your just a fa***t and dont have it.
thats what my stepdad said to me ahwile back

When I said I was too depressed to be alone, or go into the dark, or not talk to people for awhile, my mother said "Don't be silly." The attention actually helped the depression a little but mostly it just made disappointed. Another time when I said I was to depressed to do something or nto do something (and none of it was work that needed to be done, so I wasn't being lazy) she said "A lot of people get depressed." In that way that... oh, I don't know how to explain it!

i heard this one at least a thousand times growing up:

'You're so smart you're stupid'

usually after pulling off some hideously complicated prank that got me into trouble at school... Like selling perfectly forged report cards to the kids with bad grades, or getting all the kindergarteners to give me their lunch money in exchange for magic beanstalk beans...

moron, cretin, bloody autistic, idiot, lesbian, wierdo

two comments I have had from Doctors about my daughters AS (before diagnosis)

'She's perfectly healthy, physically at least'
(This was after she had kicked him in the groin because he was an arrogant insensitive dr and I, to this day, feel that he totally deserved to be kicked in the groin)

and the other when I went to see a dr about a referral for her, and had a double appointment to discuss my depression.
'You'll be fine once you have her sorted out'
(despite the fact that he was aware that I had been diagnosed as having depression and panic attacks at least 5 years before she was even born - Sheesh how do these people become doctors????)

Ana,

Luckily, my parents, especially my mother, always believed in me. Academically, I was always independent, taking charge of my own achievement and work. I was embarrassingly helpless, however, with non-academic tasks. I think that was mystifying to most people. To tell to the truth, I wasn't giving my best in the evaluation with that school psychologist, leading her to believe I couldn't do anything.

My parents often said they believed in me too. Academically I-- well, I just wasn't cut out for academics. Though my mother once said I was and that I basically HAD to be, that it was basically my only hope because I had poor social skills and poor everything else (she was brainwashed by books on AS). She seemed to sort of think academics were my only hope.


Oh yeah, I forgot, once my mother called me a crybaby though she knew I was clinically depressed.

I remember once when I said I felt depressed-- in a really disgustingly-depressed voice, mind you-- and my father said, with annoyed, angry, warning disdain, "Don't start that again." Even though I sounded awful and must have irritated, annoyed and disgusted the s**t out of him, I still felt awful... because it was another failure. I wonder if you can love someone and hate someone at the same time. Well, you can. I have that feeling for my parents right now. I wouldn't miss them if they announced that they were going places and never coming back, and went.

People have said things before but the worst is when they spend time with you and never want to again.

My mother saw this thread and shouted at me, hurt and angry, "I didn't say that!"


I was high. Down I went. But I'm still okay.
