I have visual deficits in my vision processing due to neurological reasons.
I could fullfill ICD criteria for aspergers.
But
Taking a perspective has never been one of my problems.
I do not like excessive logic. For example detecting lies semantic-logically would be foolish.
I get very jumpy when anything enters into my field of vision not just people.
I can not find details in my environment. It is killing me. Therefore I have no concept of detecting eyes consciously. I can judge state of mind from pictures being in 85 percentile range.
I like and use symbolic language.
My special interest are fleeting and focus has always been on meaning
I am not very sensitive on sense level.
To me whole thing about being adder or aspie is bit ridiculous. Why can't we just say neurological anomaly and give score on different scales? I mean sometimes you can train brain to perform visually better. Right now people are suggesting that I should go to train social skills with improper visual capacity. I need visual therapy first. My social skills are better when I know how people's thinking functions. So familiarity improves it a lot and I can be popular among people. That said I do not usually talk about my day to day struggles but I can do it with others although territorial people bug me.
So tldr. This kind of categorization in mental health is mostly just BS.
