I started taking Cipralex when I had pretty severe depression awhile back. I had stopped taking it at the beginning of this school year because I was feeling fine, and it was getting too costly. After a few weeks, I realized it hadn't only helped depression. It also helped control my severe meltdown...

ASD must be present from birth. If you definitely did not have symptoms prior to that seizure, then chances are, you are not on the spectrum. It is possible for seizures to causes damage though...perhaps that is what happened?

The ones at my school are kept fairly clean. At least in my faculty's building. I am in theology, and we have a small student body at the school with a building all to ourselves.

I read fast; however, I do have problems with reading comprehension. I have to sometimes re-read things to understand it.

I've been non-officially diagnosed with it. By that I mean, I saw an audiologist who said I fit the diagnosis, but I have to go into the city in order to receive the official diagnostic test. I have no doubt that I have it.

The only ASD sort of thing I got FOR ME was two Bible quiz books. This is ASDish for me because theology and bible studies is my special interest right now. I also got the Hunger Games which is my current favourite movie. I got a few things for new apartment: spice rack, slow cooker, glass container...

My parents told me there was a Santa as the vast majority of parents that celebrate Christmas in our society do. I figured it out when I was around 7 or 8, and when I asked about it, my Mom told me the truth.

With a language delay, you cannot technically be diagnosed with Aspergers (though there probably are some people out there with such a diagnosis). If you are on the spectrum, the proper diagnosis would be Autism/Autistic Disorder, or--if you do not have all the symptoms for that but are definitely o...

I do lack empathy, but not in a psychopathic kind of way. I have sympathy, and that is about it. I know the difference between right and wrong, and when bad things happen, I feel bad. As for empathy and considering what the other person would think, I am completely incapable of doing that.
