I actually have friends diagnosed with Classic Autism and I don't see much of a difference between myself and them except they have speech issues and I don't. I really prefer the company of those ... |

I have started stimming about as much in public as I do in private lately. Mostly because since I was diagnosed two years ago, I started recognizing it as a coping mechanism and I no longer care what people think of it. |

Oh jeez dude really? I don't have insurance but I'll investigate it further, can gallstones kill you? I've already had my appendix out so It defently isn't that. Thanks for your reply it was really helpful. I don't think they can kill you unless one backs up into your liver. If that happens your ey... |

First impression: I'm afraid I don't really care for the layout. It seems rather disorganized. It may just be that while I do have a Facebook account, I almost never use it. Meaning I'm simply not all that "with it" in terms of operating within the whole FB structure. So, the applicability of this ... |

Not all autistic relationships are AS/NT. You forgot to factor people like me who are in AS/AS relationships or AS/other disability relationships. Autism spectrum people do find love amongst each other quite often :-) The overwhelming preponderance of male aspies though makes that impossible for ma... |
