A genuinely useful Aspie trait

Post Reply New Topic

I don't find it "useful" to be clueless to everything that is going on around me. I find it very frusterating, when I can't get others to comprehend me when I need something.

"the down side is the other extreme -the meltdowns. "

With the idea that aspergers is simply another neurotype and that we have another role in society than most, to be some sort of inventors, artists, etc.

Perhaps meltdowns were intended to have a positive purpose, like if you are supposed to be "inventing something" and your design is not working and fails, maybe you are supposed to get frustrated and destroy the design with a meltdown, to start over fresh and make something that is working. Hmm.

To the OP: You are completly WRONG.

ALL aspie traits are useful in their own way, one simply must figure out how to best utilize said traits.

Exhuberance is merely a start.

In conclusion, all things can be said to be magnetic: they all have a positive end and a negative end. It is most prudent to focus on utilizing the positive end to the best of ones ability rather than lamenting over the fact that AS, or whatever other nown you prefer, has a negative end. You can't get rid of the negative end, so why get upset about it? Instead look to the positives, and use said positives as frequently and adroitly as possible while simultaneously minimalizing the negatives.

Should you expect to be perfect at it? Hell no.
Will you be perfect at it? Hell no.
Should that bother you? Hell no.
Should you consider youself inferior to others because you can't be perfect? Hell no.
Is any person alive today perfect? Hell no.

Realizing all of that is key to finding happyness.
