It occurred to me that there may be a connection between Dermographic skin and AS (just a thought)

AS people only please !

if i'm not mistaking thats the condition that cause my skin around my hair line to be very light in red. so yes i have that. shame when i have a major break out. but i love it when it be clear

can't read it, says something about a missing plug-in

You need Adobe Reader 9, get it from the adobe website and you should be able to view this article.

I was told I had it over ten years ago and never looked it up, just occurred to me to do it and there may be a link. Actually though it was allergy to plants that was doing it as he wrote on my leg with his finger then called over some nurses so I just connected the inflammation and things with an allergic reaction. Might be worth you seeing if it comes when you are stressed !?

I hope this link works for you its not as good as the other one no pictures

YES.

thank you - i never knew there was a name for that.

Are you talking about things like Atopic Dermatitis I've had major problems with that when I was younger. I would scratch cuz I'd itch & when under stress I would pick as a coping thing till I bled witch caused more bullying & more stress. My skin's much better nowadays but I try to watch my scratching & I still bleed sometimes but not nearly as often & my skin generally looks about normal

I don't, but one of my friends does (she's not on the spectrum). She likes to draw pictures on herself because they're like temporary tattoos haha.
I'm pretty sure my (AS) boyfriend does too. He'll scratch and itch on his back and it looks like a cat mauled him.

You can't stop, until you reach poll #700.

No atopic dermatitis is the other poll. I actually read about scratching today on the national autistic societies website apparently that is an AS trait as well (hand fiddling and lip biting were also news to me ! ) I used to do this badly due to stress managed to stop it though few !

Given that one of my annoying things (I annoy myself with it I dont know about anyone else) is that I NEED to understand things or they annoy me I should have picked a higher number that or can I have 700 per year !?

I don't think I have the condition, but I do scratch a lot. So does my father.
I remember scratching my skin so much as a kid that I was unable to fall asleep at night,
