Anyone who would like prayer just email me. The links are on my homepage. Any topics you may like to hear, I would love your feedback. Asperger's is new to me so I would love any information that others may have or other sites that may contain other information. Like my facebook as well if you get a chance. It is on my homepage as well.

I'm 27, have AS. Diagnosed at 17, and it's hard to maintain long-term relationships. I have a natural tendency to avoid social confrontations and low self confidence that I can deal with a social situation, yet when I put myself into one, say going to the toy store to buy toys, and check out through customer service, I can do it.

Back in April, I went to see the doctor and he refeerred me to a psychologist to get a 2nd opinion on my AS. He thinks I may just have bipolar cuz I remember back then I was gettin very emotional, following Natalee Holloway case very close and I remember crying a lot every time I thought of poor Natalee, and some days I'd have great days where I didn't feel like life was a living hell.

The doctor also gave me a prescription for antidepressant which I took and immediately fell to be floor at work, minutes after taking it. Then my mom said I'm acting like I was in highschool when I was on antidepressants. So I stopped taking it and also i never went for the 2nd opinion. I still have a hard time with social situations and an ADHD and OCD lifestyle. Also poor sleep patterns where I don't work normal 9 to 5 hours, but since my job is flexible, and I'm the adaptable type, it's not too bad, but only that I miss a big chunk of my day, and the more I sleep, the lazier I get. And choose to sleep away my problems and avoid them, causin g more problems to form.

I'm diagnosed with asperger's and bipolar too. it makes life ifficult sometimes

It seems that asperger's lead to so many other illnesses. It is often misdiagnosed. but regardless it seems to cause other illnesses to be worse because of the mental strain of dealing with them. I am glad to find the group because I have felt alone in many ways may whole life. Do we all have weird stories that seem to be out of place in the universe. I could not stand broken crayons as a kid for example. What are some of your stories?




By the way, I have a podcast that with people who struggle from all sorts of illnesses like I do, so join at Rambling Chronic on the search in iTunes or http://RamblingChronicPK.com for The Rambling Chronic PK Show. Friend me on Facebook too by either Facebook.com/RamblingChronicPK and click like or Facebook.com/Jspencereds and become my friend. I would love to make some more real friends. I do this to try to help others in hope that it will help me as well. Don't forget to share your stories with me. I also pray for a person each day if their is a need and post it to the website and the FB so email me if you have a need that you would like prayer on. Helping others has helped me a ton. I started running and now I have ran a 1/2 marathon. It has been amazing what I have been able to do since I started helping others.

Same here. I was originally diagnosed wth bipolar when I was 18. I decided to ween myself off lithium at the beginning of this year and have a complete lifestyle change and try to "work myself out". After 12years of taking lithium every day I was diagnosed with Asperger's (with bipolar) and now my life makes a whole lot more sense.
