Sometimes...and sometimes, they are right.

Many people at my university (including staff) act like they think I'm stupid. They talk to me in condescending ways and arrogantly correct my actions and yell at me for making little mistakes and try to embarrass me in front of everyone. I just get so frustrated every time I do something I think might be a mistake because I'm afraid people might be making fun of me and they can easily tell I have aspergers.

Most people I come across think I am some kind of genius after they start talking to me. Or they are just lying.

I'm not a psychitrest, but I think they are just trying to convince you that you are normal despite being different.
