But... what are or well... would be the worst changes you've ever had to deal with? I mean other than say, moving away or something or going on vacation. All I can think of is moving away and I want something more for the story I am writing. I want to write something more autism related so i can use my own experiences with my disorder.

That's my story right there. But I want to think of other things that might trigger this too. I knew she starts a new school since she's been going to a special school for school age kids with disabilities but do you think that's a bit much? I mean, can anyone give me any general ideas? I need something from an autistic/aspie point of view since wattpad isn't as helpful as those who actually have autism/asperger's.

Sorry if it's in the wrong section... it does deal with change and well... getting to know more about autism as far as the change goes. I never experienced what most do because I'm on a lot of meds that help decrease my symptoms.

She moves and the 'cool girls' at her new school start bullying her so she takes up bomb making and electronics as special interests and proceeds to makes bombs packaged as cute/girly stuff to take out her tormentors one by one. Think like Prada Bomb, Gucci Bomb, Explosive Lipstick, Bonzai Hello Kitty Bomb....

On 2nd thought you'd best leave the bombing out. The bully girls would work though. Not that I've ever been bullied by girls (might be fun though).

Oh she does get bullied but there is a boy that takes a liking to her and they become friends... only she doesn't know what love is because well... she is sort of mentally-challenged. Her special interests are Alice in Wonderland and Japanese Culture. She loves stuffed animals and dolls and also loves dress up and tea parties.

But I meant like autistic tendencies I should use. I don't want to over use the whole outbursts/meltdowns and sensory overloads because my readers might think she's a crybaby or something. Not many people really understand autism like they should.

Hmm, I actually got used to moving (my parents were addicted, I think. My mother STILL is..) but God help anyone who messed with the way I arranged my room wherever I went. Or touched my collections!

Sincerely,
Matthew

Some changes that have upset me are:

My mom starting a new job or changing schedules at her current job
My mom being called into work when she was supposed to have the day off
People coming over to my house unannounced
Going to a restaurant and the food I usually order being unavailable
My room being cleaned or (especially) rearranged

By the way, I absolutely love the fact that the Asperger's girl in your story is obsessed with Alice in Wonderland and Japanese culture! I've always loved Japanese culture and the Tim Burton version of Alice in Wonderland was a major obsession for me the year it came out (and to a lesser extent, the year after that as well).

Well, I don't know if she is really AS or not. I'm trying to make her a lot like me. She's got a lot of learning and developmental delays so... yeah. >< I don't have AS and I've been trying to make her a lot like me. I think for her the changes she has are going to a public school where she's prone to bullying and teachers misunderstanding her and moving to a place where she is away from the beaches of california... because it was part of her childhood.
