. This is just really really really really sick.

Who the hell goes and tries to rob a bunch of autistic people. Just wow......

If you were considering doing any sort of sick s**t..........well ya...

Walter. Enjoy your time in hell.

Jeez....this might be terrible of me, but I must admit i've been tempted to ask people on here for help with a certain (and fairly costly) diagnostic procedure i've been trying to access for a long time now. I just have too much pride (foolish though it may be I guess ) to ask and i'm pretty sure no one would be willing/able to help me out anyway.


If nothing else....at least I can PROVE who am I and that i'm sincere. I CANNOT prove I have the problems (or at least that there's a genuine neurological basis for them) which are motivating me to access said diagnostic procedure. All I can say is that they've never been objectively confirmed on any of the six neuropsychological evaluations i've taken in my life (or any of the IQ/memory tests i've had.) Nonetheless....I am not INTENTIONALLY exaggerating these problems. All I can say is that they seem very, very real to me and they always have.


The neuropsychologists i've spoken to about this have told me I could very well have the problems in question and that it's entirely possible they could've eluded detection on all the standard neuropsychological/psychometric tests available in the typical clinical setting.

thats fine horus. just dont ask for money at the end of your

"hey guys, i need some help in understanding what i might have?"

see now. are we going to get into it agian? golly i hope not.

I like the pig

If you look down this page, quite some way down, you will see Diagnostic Resources.

Essentially it's a list of studies that are going on right now, who will diagnose you and actually pay you for your time.

Check it out.

sorry, it's under research projects towards the bottom of the page.

Also, fixer girl.

My question for you is this. Why do you get looks AND brains.


stumbled upon your pic in the pic thread thing. I don't think it's fair that you get looks and brains



I guess life just isn't fair is it?



Well, I may never be really intelligent or good looking. However, I am a really hard worker. Of course, a lot of people are...

Uhm, what does everyone think of my picture?! I've whored it on here a few times!

BTW, if you would like to send me a small cash donation to reshape my unattractive butt -chin

feel free to PM me with your most generoius support!

That must be a very old pic, I'm fat and ugly now.

Oh, and I'm clearly stupid - I was going to drive nearly 6000 miles round trip for a guy that's likely a confidence man.

But thank you for the compliment, that's very sweet of you.

Would you like me to post a more recent pic?

Sure,

Although, it doesn't really matter what we think. Only what your husband thinks. I would betcha he thinks your the best.

I don't know what to think. Just the idea bothers me.

It was nice to see FixerGirl want to give so much help. She does seem real to me.

I didn't and I won't. As tempting as it would be for me.....I just don't have the b***s to ask strangers on the internet (or strangers anywhere for that matter) for any financial assistance. Hopefully i'll be able to scare up the money for this soon on my own anyway. I have an appt. with my OVR counselor on Monday and she told me the first priority is helping me to find a job. I totally concur with that as I have $69 to my name right now. My family helps me with all my basic living necessities... but that's it. They will not even lend me the money for the procedure in question and I know better than to even ask. If they really believed the problems I sincerely believe I have were real, (that is....having a genuine neurological etiology) they might. No matter what I do or say though....I can't convince them these problems seem very real to me and are likely to be very neurologically (rather than UNINTENTIONALLY exaggerated or wholly imagined on my part) based. My insurance (which my family pays for) won't cover any of these diagnostic procedures (an MRI and/or a PET scan.....and any I would have which MIGHT detect the origin/s , nature and extent of the problems i'm speaking of would need to be very specific) and thus I have no other recourse here at this time. Assuming these problems are real.......all I can say is that there's every reason to believe they have been far more debilitating to me than all the other neurological/psychological issues I have combined.

If I'm not real, I've given DW_A_MOM logins for five cameras to someone else's house!

lol

I am pretty straight up. What you see is what you get - which is the way most of us Aspies are right?

As for my hubby loving me the way I am, yep, he does and I'm more than lucky to have him.

It's worth noting that Walter also has a twitter feed. Actually, he has a few. I'm following him now on twitter.

There's a study running right now in New York on diagnostic testing with FMRI's (Functional).

The details are:

Jessica Raithel
Phyllis Green and Randolph Cowen Institute for Pediatric Neuroscience
NYU Child Study Center
215 Lexington Ave., 14th Floor
NY, NY 10016
212-263-2497

They will pay you to diagnose you with aspergers, even if you have been diagnosed with aspergers (I think they prefer you to have a diagnosis already).

Anyway, don't worry that they are a Pediatric department, they are actually testing adults.

Good Luck and I hope that helps!

Not stupid. Willing to take a risk with eyes wide open. You had your bases covered all along.

You can, btw, delete that at any time. Until I open it, it isn't permanent to my in box. That's why I haven't opened it.
