crazy is a strong & often inappropriate word..
i think what you describe is possible but unlikely.
i would guess that you may have been hallucinating. i think a psychiatrist, for instance, would consider assessing for psychosis &/or schizophrenia.
just my (amateur) opinion.

before i discovered that i am autistic i though i was mentally retarted
and i was always thinking are mentally retarted really stupid???because i don't fell stupid at all...
i believe in God and in the existance of angels and demons....
one day while i was sleeping i woke up and i got the inspiration to search in the interner about autism...
suddenly i remembered many things from my childhood,how i was diagnosed,the suicide attempt of my father....i think a spirit guided me to learn all these things and made me remember many things....
now everybody treat me like i am mentally retarted(they think i confuse left with right and columns)because i failed an iq test because of lack of sleep but i am calm i go to the icon of Jesus Christ and i say to him : "You are the wisdom that i was sleep deprived while i was taking this test"

also many things that happened i think are not coincidental...i think it was God's will to fail the iq test so that one day i will discover that i am autistic...when my father made the suicide attempt my uncle coincidentally came to my house and i said to him that "he said he will never wake up"...i think maybe that was God's will so that i would remember it in the future....

I am very scientific in terms of thinking. I am not a believer in God or religion but I am open to being proven wrong. (It would be really great if there was more to just dying).

I don't think it's really a problem if you believe that a spirit has taught you something and it has helped you I mean who's to say you're wrong? It's only a bad thing if you started to get "guidance" which commands you to do hurtful things to yourself and other people.

It's good that you're asking people because if you actually are crazy then you probably wouldn't realise.

But yeh if you are questioning your sanity then you might want to get assessed for schizophrenia or other disorders that cause hallucinations.

well i'm not sure what you mean..
i have to say, i think it incredibly unlikely that you were visited by an angel/demon etc.. it's perhaps understandable that you relate "visions" or hallucinations to christian/religious mythology or "characters" still it doesn't seem possible.
lack of sleep/lack of nutrition etc can cause people to hallucinate & if the only "otherwordly" things you've seen are a select few icons from a religion, it's quite likely they are "waiting" in your subconscious.. sorry if this is no help.

i think an angel or demon spoke to my mind while i was sleeping and got me these thoughts
an angel or demon gave me the inspiration to search about autism
i really believe that
lack of sleep made me fail the iq test not have hallunications

I've been reading about your army IQ test for weeks now... I have concerns that you are not autistic and have other issues. Or possibly you are both autistic and have something else. But I don't think you want to hear that.

um, not really a delicate way to say this... but have you seriously looked at a common aspergers misdiagnoses? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schizophrenia -- "the peak ages of onset are 20–28 years for males"

You do not seem very logical. see here: http://www.mugsy.org/wing2.htm

well take no notice of them. they are not as important as you and they know it.
they need you to take notice of them to give them credibility. bugger them.
you are you whatever that is. care not what it is. the fact that you are you is the important bit.

I had a friend who channeled and she always said just cause they're spirits doesn't mean they're not the village idiot, so you have to use your analytical intelligence to evaluate whether or not you've got a good one...

if this spirit is really a good one, someone here on this plane ought to be able to confirm the diagnosis.

Whatever works for you.
I personally think that everyone is crazy in different ways.
No one else except you is in any position to judge you.

NT's also line things up so this alone is no proof. Besides it's no TobyZ or us you need to prove it to, it's medical professionals who have the final say.

so, if you go out into the street with a loaded gun and point it at people - and say you are going to shoot everyone in sight.

We shouldn't judge you?

And he posted a QUESTION on this forum here, basically asking us to judge him and provide feedback.

hey. i don't think people mean to say you definitely don't have autism.. but you asked "do you think i am crazy?" while Hans Asperger originally referred to Aspergers as "autistic psychosis" (he also called them "little professors" & was opposed to eugenics) there is, nowadays little evidence to suggest that those on the autistic spectrum show any inherent signs of psychosis, as far as i know.. in short if you are "crazy" it should be separate from autism.. i'm more than open to the idea that i'm wrong though.

No, not crazy. But I do not believe that you truly think this, I believe it is your coping mechanism. We all cope differently with the news that we are on the autism spectrum.
