AS symptoms ?

Post Reply New Topic

Some people say this is asperger symptoms and other people say it is not.
Do you know what it could be ?

I have a lot of trouble with simple calculation and sometime very simple calculation, I still don't know where is left and right (I need concentration to know it), I need concentration to read a digital clock.

I don't always know which season it is and here it's easy to know it because summertime weather is very hot and winter we have a lots of snow (lol).

Sometime I don't use the good word, ex: if want to say the wall is white, I know that the color is white but I'll say blue ...

I have a lot of trouble to spell simple words (often I will write it before to spell it), if I have to write a phone number, you should spell it slowly and I often don't write the good numbers (6 instead of 3 and ...).

When I was at school I succeed every years except some calculation courses. I had good result in programming classes and got professional computer certification.

And of course I have the same social and communication problems as many of you.

You definitely sound like you've got Learning Disabilities in mathematical and spatial areas. Possibly Nonverbal Learning Disorder, which happens often with Aspergers but also shows social problems of its own. Although it doesn't show as much language disruption as you're showing.

That's about all I could say from what you've given. Aspergers is possible. Nonverbal LD seems probable.

Everything you said except for the last one did not sound like aspergers at all. it sounds like you have something else.

You're still welcome here, no matter what you might have.

Here at Wrong Planet, we accept all kinds! (Except for many of the guys at Cure Autism Now and Autism Speaks, they've got the wrong idea going there)

Thank you !

I have a few others symptom that look like AS that I didn't mentioned in my post, but I'll wait for the doctor.

Another thing to consider(please dont be offended because I am just speaking from experience)is some form of MS or other degenerative illness that may effect your CN system.Is English your first language?My boyfriend has MS(multiple sclerosis)and although he very very intelligent in most areas...he has some cognitive functions that are "ret*d" due to the MS.One of my paranoia's with people with AS is that they will assume every unusual "trait" is due to AS and over look a medical cause that may get worse if not treated.I think it would be a good idea to see a neurologist just to rule out any thing like this.

think any of you could tell me? if i've got or am just weird.

NLD can occur with AS. About 40% of the time in fact.

sounds like dyscalulia, dyspraxia and dyslexia all in one hellish package.

ok, i cannever remember words, i suck at simple math and geometry, things bother me that my friends(all but 1 and hes diagnosed) i usually have trouble spelling, i,aparently, have a fatial tick(havent seen this yet) i'm clumbyser than my friend(he said iths a symptom) im percived as strange. ppl r always saying im so weird(playfully) but my moms constantl asking why i cant b normal. i am ATTACHED to my hoody(over the years its been shirts sweaters jackets ect) fans are meznorizind, ticking clocks are annoyimg the cafiteria is almost unberable(spend lunch with fingures in ears reading lips) i hardly ever get the jokes, i offend ppl when im only tring to help. i have,like, a need to rock or spin(my friend spins alot)but i can FORCE myself to not do it or stop. i could go on and an but this is prob too much already

i also have an addiction to music. i've been playin since i ws 4 and cant go anywhere without something to listen to. i'll forget my hoody befor my cd player.

did flagg reply to me?

was this directed at me? im not used to thi and i cant tell which way it goes

No, I'm a french Canadian, but the problems I explained earlier happened in French, it's not a translation things.



My mother has MS, she only knew 3 years ago, it took 10 years before doctors found it.

I got a brain scan and everything was ok.
