We've all I've assumed at some point gone thought we were completely normal.At a point we learn we are not typical.

when this happened what were the parts of your day that told you that you were not like everyone else.

I'm not talking about things that could also be said about nt's, like I'm lonely, I don't have many friends, I have trouble at work.

I mean actual things where you knew you did it only because your autistic.

All I got is stimming, beyond that, I'd really have to think.


I wish you would stop spreading stupid and thoughtless utterances like " ... We've all assumed ..." How could you possibly know what other people have assumed, especially all of them?

"... thought we were completely normal ..." WTF are you playing here? Mind reader?

What told me "... that you were not like everyone else. ..."

Well, I looked around and figured that I don't see a huge pile of idiots called everyone else, let alone being part of that fictitious, non--existing group, but I realized that there are only individuals.


Sorry you've lost me at we've. When I said we've who is the we. All aspies, al 70 million of them or the 35 million that are diagnosed, or the 7 billion that may be born, or the 70 trillion that exist in the galaxy.

I'm sorry if I'm not coming here to bicker.


Stoek, I didn't mean to offend you. Sorry if I might have come across as a nitpicking smartass.

Your question makes sense to me so far as you're asking for the special moment or perhaps period in one's life when they realized in which way they differ from other people, maybe the majority of their peers or family members. Which is actually a very small comparison group.

However, I'm having a problem with this type of group formation because basically it's like "If you know one person with autism, you know one person with autism. If you know one NT person, you know one NT person." I think humans (and other mammals)are too complex and too differentiated to be reduced to just the tag 'autistic' or 'NT'.

Again, no offense meant.
