Some odd cross between ADHD and FANSTASY.

i'm a girl.>->

Wow, what an interesting set of articles.
Maybe the closest would be anxiety girl for me. I still shut down when overwhelmed.

I see. Well, the Fantay girl fits me very well, with a dash of Anxiety girl. Paranoid girl, on the other hand, fits my teen self almost perfectly. Yep, that was the teenaged me right there!

emotion boy
This is the most difficult type to deal with because rules and reasons mean much less to him or her. Many of the Asperger children fall into one of the emotion types. Their emotions control their behaviors. If you do not recognize and deal with their emotions, your success is diminished. This group has many more tantrums, is less available, easily disengages, or is more prone to acting out. Those dealing with the Emotion Boy can often find themselves in a state of frustration at best and a crisis state at worst. The vast majority of this group will end upon medications for their issues because their coping strategies are poorly developed and inadequate to meet the demands of the world. Fortunately, the right medication and an effective behavioral plan can do wonders.

Recommended Approach: Most parents of these children refrain from physical interventions, but may be using a good deal of restraining techniques.(yes i do get restained at times i meltdown )

comic/fantasy/rpg boy

Fantasy girl. I love movies, as long as they're fun and clean.

What's a "clean" movie?

coins/sci-fi type

Dx @ 40; explains so much of the last 35 years...

somewhere between angry and emotion

when i was young, I could easily fit into the emotional category.

Now i am a nice blend of ADHD/ OCD .
I meltdown when things are out of my control. I love to make lists of things i need to do, and hate to be interrupted in the middle of a task. I must finish it. MUST MUSTMUST!! ! Not to mention if something is bothering me, it wont stop bothering me until its fixed or resolved. Its all i can think about.

On the other hand, i cannot organize things to save my life. I cant remember where i park most of the time. I constantly lose things like sunglasses, keys and papers. Forms and paperwork confuse me to no end. Names numbers and dates are so hard to remember and if you tell me something, i will forget it in five seconds. yes, five seconds.

Nobody else either The Logic Boy or The Rule Boy?

Taking my whole life into account, I'm a mix between:

Asperger Subtype: "The Rule GIRL"

Subtype: Innocent/Passive GIRL

and

Asperger Subtype: "The Emotion GIRL"

Angry/Resistant GIRL

and

Asperger Subtype: "The Emotion GIRL"

ADHD GIRL

nice avatar dawnleon well i was afraid that im only one who fits in emotion category

From the link, it's a little harder to find the other subtypes, logic and rule.
I'm a logic GIRL all the way. I had those fights with mom for all of my teenagerdom. That wasn't fun. A little bit of emotional/anxiety as well.
