| Just because Cho killed people doesn't mean that it was his autism which caused him to do it. It is quite likely that he was also suffering from paranoid schizophrenia. Of course, the media aren't going to mention this, they are NT idiots who cannot understand Autism. |

| I get that sometimes. One time I was holding my rabbit (who died three years ago RIP) and I sort of lost my mind for a short time and forgot what I was doing and couldn't figure out where I was (In the back garden!). Some doctors think I am having petit mals attacks because I don't always remember w... |

Groups for Aspies are rubbish in Britain too. There is one in MK, but it might as well not exist. It is for the parents, not the actual Aspies, and it hasn't met up for well over 10 months now. I am getting really fed up... I have met 1, and only 1 Aspie at college!  |

| It took my doctors ages to diagnose me, either because of their 'ethical reasons' (e.g not wanting to put a label on me...) or because they couldn't agree what was wrong with me. I don't really mind my AS, even though it is fairly bad, but I wish I didn't have the sensory problems which are commonly... |

| I used to get that, especially at school. It started after my Granny died when I was only 12 years old. It is called elective muteism. For a while, the only words that came out of my mouth was naughty ones because of my Tourette syndrome! |

| I go through phases. Sometimes (these days, mostly) I am happy, but other days I want to dive under a bush and stay there for a while. Usually I get triggered by bad things, but other times I go completely mad with depressed for no reason! I am happy at the moment though, but I am really tired... |

Quote: Are people with AS completely obsessed with manga?
Whoops, my language difficulty strikes again... I meant why are so many people with AS obsessed with manga, not implying that all people with AS like the stuff!  |
