[Here's One Factoid]

Why are you here? I'm looking into a diagnosis. I want to learn as much as possible so that I may better understand the characteristics of Asperger's Syndrome. I don't want to give them the wrong information and end up being given a label that may not suite me.

Thank you.

I am what I am not because of me, but the way my family and friends have influenced me.

I'm British with an infatuation with multiple things, racing, computers, racing games on computers. Maybe if I had a girlfriend I would spend less time on my computer? I think I did ...

I'm still awaiting a full diagnosis for asperger's but my doctor has recommended that I got for an MRI scan to see if my brain is functioning correctly, wouldn't it be better if people could talk to me instead of presuming that I am unable to communicate for myself? The notes that my doctor has always has me as a third person, like an object and the notes being passed to people like passing ownership where I never see them - why?

um ...

I'm 25 years of age and I can crash anything except cars, if it's electrical I can cause it to stop working. I currently have a girl I like very much, she knows - but sometimes I wonder. She is 22 at current.

Been waiting for a diagnosis for over 2 years now - so frustrating

Hi; having just read that most of you are athiests I would like to start by saying that I am a devout Catholic Conservative. The rigidness to rules practiced by those groups went to confirm my Asperger's diagnosis in 2006. As you probably know, one of the traits is being labled a weirdo - that happened to me in the worst possible way because someone who I thought was the best (and only) friend I have ever had put out a restraining order against me. I still don't understand why because they never said.
The terms of my restraining order led to me being temporarily excluded from Cardiff University School of Physics and Astronomy for 2 years. I'll be returning in September, but I seriously worry that the staff don't know what the traits of my condition are. I'm entitled to an extension on my 3rd year project for instance, but the project organiser won't allocate me one until "a time of (his) choosing".
I'm a little sore that they isolated me from all the acquaintances I struggled to make. I will refrain from making new acquaintances this up-coming year in case they take them off me again. One thing I have learned from this is that adults are completely untrustworthy.

New person: American, 31 years old, diagnosed about 10 years ago when I was in college after years of academic trouble and social problems. My parents were afraid I'd be bothered by it (the diagnosis) but it was sort of a relief to have a name for something that I'd known since I was little was "abnormal" about myself. My father is also Aspie; his mother, her father, etc. were probably also Aspie, but of course nobody knew about it then. I don't come by it strangely.

I'm a second-generation atheist. I was raised a liberal Quaker and still go to meeting pretty regularly, but would not call myself religious. I don't know that I can attribute that to Asperger's, though, since my mother new from the time she was six years old that she didn't believe in God, and she's about as NT as they come.

I've had a number of different interests (obsessions?) over the years but the two longest-running have been model horses and music. I think I'm finally starting to outgrow the model horses, though; people are getting to be much more serious about them than I am willing to be. I play Appalachian dulcimer, some basic guitar, and am slowly learning fiddle. I listen to music almost constantly: folk, country, rockabilly, Cajun, old-time, etc. I also sew and used to paint things (folk-art style), although I don't have a lot of time right now.

I'm not a super-dedicated TV watcher but I like "Antiques Roadshow" and the silly crime shows ("Law & Order", "CSI", "Bones". I like "Bones" better than "CSI" because at least "Bones" has a sense of humor about itself and the fact that it's really pretty corny).

I am Arun from India. I'm 25, large, I can do anything with my computer have all kinds of disorder, people consider me as an arrogant person but I'm not ...I never talked with anyone in my life except my parents...Somehow I graduated...I want to live like others but don't know how ? I hope I'll live like others atleast one day before I die...I always pray to God to take me away cos I consider myself a burden ...hope God is hearing to the prayers of mine . and one more thing I forgot to tell ya guys ....I love animals,birds & plants..Rabbits, dogs & cats are my fav I also love elephants

Nice to meet you, ChrisWilliams.

Hola! Me llamo Liz.
meaning hey, i'm liz.... i've had this account since april and sorta forgot about it...according to my mom i have aspergers (sp??) but i haven't really looked into it much. i'm really athletic (softball is my preference, but i'm up for anything really!) and love to have a good time, but i can't stand the giggly girls that travel in packs and are always talking.... although i do love to talk!
i guess i'm just trying to find ppl that i can talk to without having to feel all weird, or having ppl judge me. i can't stand it when ppl judge me, and i do my best not to judge others, but i'm sorry if i do.
hit me up, i'd love to talk to some people!!

My name is Latin for a genus of flowers. I am very liberal and open minded. I have medium-length brown hair which I am currently growing out. I hope to grow it very long...

I have 5 cats (two will have to be given away however). Along with Asperger's syndrome I also have ADHD and a serotonin imbalance. I have lived in the southeast of America my whole life but I would love to travel around the world someday. I have a current obsession with Norway and Sweden.

I've never had any friends and as a result I am horrible at talking (even by aspie standards) and it takes a long time for me to turn my thoughts into words.
