Hi everyone! :) Sorry if similar thread exist, but i have a one question for you? How do I know if i'm aspergic? I feel like i'm slightly aspergic. Often literaly taken meaning, words, etc. i dont get usual, 'normal' type of humor. i don't get 'normal' people. their sense of humor, and their conversation subjects are a way to boring to me. and i fake i'm interested in, but, i'm not, and all of that crzy things dry my energies out, and i often feel isolated and empty. what should i do?

You would need to make an appointment for a diagnostic evaluation with a psychologist or psychiatrist or other qualified professional (not all psychs are qualified to diagnose ASDs). You can take online tests, or whatever, but all you can conclude, is that you strongly suspect you have it (when I was self-diagnosed, that was what it was: a strong suspicion that I was on the spectrum). To know, you should go for a professional evaluation.

I love that. "Aspergic." Coincidentally, odd use of language is a trait of being "aspergic" too.
