| I reiterate these partiuclar points you are glossing over. YOU are the one making a vague claim about how terribly worse Asperger's syndrome ( a MILD form of Autism) is compared to what is widely considered one of the most debilitating mental illnesses out there. You have come up with no examples, n... |

| Sora: As your AS doesn't seem to be a real problem as you say, not very debilitating, Not anymore, because I learnt to overcome most of the adversity I gave me in childhood. I take it you are just being an intentionally and horribly rude person I don't suffer fools gladly. who displays lots of ignor... |

| Why is that a problem? And if it is, why do you bother with this forum. It's a problem becuase people become immersed in their label, and feel it defines them wholly as a person, which, considering how people here criticise Non autistics for their 'herd mentality', strikes me as a little hypocritic... |

| why? People have a far less accurate perception of illnesses like agoraphobia or schizophrenia than of Aspergers, and they are far more debilitating (trust me, I know) How many types of Asperger's do you know? Asperger's can be far more 'debilitating' than agoraphobia or schizophrenia. Ha. Hahahaha... |

| Hilofoz, I have a few points of dissent: This is a nonsense. You obviously have not read about the neurological differences between people with A/AS and others. So a difference of opinion simply equals ''did not do the research''? There are definite differences in the neural pathways of information ... |

| At least one post gets where I'm coming from. I posted these questions to see how people would respond and their opinions on matter that are important to me I have asked these questions to myself and wanted to see if the answers of others corroborate what I feel, and how I perceive the mindset of ce... |

| 'Neurotypicality' is a social (hahahaha) construct create so people can pigeon hole anyone who is remotely different from them and use it to justify their polarised 'Us/Them' mentality. Yet, interestingly enough, 'neurotypical' is a word that was invented by the autistic community. It's not somethi... |

He's happy in the beginning; he's just not smiling. Check out that ceiling fan. Wouldn't you be happy watching that, too? (Well, if you l... |
