oh, I've never come across the infinity sign being used for autism! what's the meaning/origin of that?
I'm not a fan of the puzzle piece if it's used to mean 'puzzling' or 'missing', but I like the idea of the bigger picture being incomplete without the perspective of people with autism. |

Search 'SnapClock' on Facebook. It's a page selling cheap handmade custom autism/Asperger's awareness jewellery. It's nice stuff.
I've also seen good stuff on Etsy, Ebay and CafePress, but they're a little more expensive.
Any other sites? |

| Surely it's not just 'hormones'? I went to a mainstream school, so I can honestly say that a lot of my problems were due to social relationships becoming more complicated, a greater sense of self-awareness, and bullying. |

| I don't really look at faces in dreams and, when I do, they're usually not very clear. I also don't imagine what characters look like when I read fiction. Anyone else experience this? |

| Hi, I was diagnosed with AS, then later diagnosed with schizophrenia. The people who diagnosed me with schizophrenia were in a different city and never gained access to my medical records. The schizophrenia diagnosis never made any sense to me, and I've apparently recovered from schizophrenia (!) bu... |

| Oh wow. It seems that the stereotype varies! I think there's a different stereotype within the AS community, because there's more knowledge of asperger's. rather than being an organic stereotype, it's based on the most common symptoms. Typical aspies; we create stereotypes and base them in fact rath... |

| I went through a brief period of being cool. People said it was because I could just say what I thought and not care. People thought it was confidence, then shyness and mystery. But every time someone said that, I just hated myself a little bit more because I didn't know what it was I'd said that I ... |

Hi,
I definitely don't fit the stereotype. I hate maths, I know nothing about trains... And I'm a girl.
I encounter people who have the attitude that if I don't fit the stereotype, then I don't have asperger's.
Does anyone actually fit the stereotype?? |
