Does anyone here get bullied for thier speech.I think I have aspergers.(I have never had any friends..)I fit most of the stuff about it except I dont have any intense interest(I dont have any interest.)I dont think I have the sensory problems either even thought I dont like to be touched thought.I get made fun of alot for my voice(it sounds different I dont know how to describe it but it suxs.)and I sometimes mispronounce syllables especcially /a/ as in war or water.(I hate hearing myself speak.)and that may be why I have no friends or anything.When I was younger I did have the stereotyped movement(alot)wheni was younger but not anymore.I also had the intense interest when I was younger....

so question 1 could I have aspergers.

question 2 Anybody with aspergers get made fun of for thier voice.

Not so much normally but when kids were teasing me and I became stressed my voice would become slow and I would mispronounce syllables - this of course gave then more ammunition to tease me - other kids can be very crawl.

'frade I'm not even going to attempt that one :( but is a possibility.

It seems to me you likely have AS. Maybe you could go into more detail?
I got made fun of for my voice a little in middle school and a little recently. I sing very well but my voice can get naselly.
I don't have an intense interest, though I do have some interests.

When I was in high school, I had people laugh when I read out loud. I wasn't called on to read aloud very often. As for not understanding people when several are talking, look up CAPD (Centralized Auditory Processing Disorder). I have the same problem. I also have trouble understanding most singers who sing with a whispery voice, as well as rappers who speak rapidly.
