Hi Ana54. I can relate to what you are saying. This can cause a lot of ill feelings to build up inside us. I know it's easier said than done, but try to forget them. But yes, that is tough. I have this saying, "It's easy to forgive, but you can never forget." So, if you continue thinking about these... |

Hi Sirunus. There are times I feel like that too. That's when I try to relate to my interests in solitude. I like to go to the bedroom by myself, get under the covers (if it's cold) and work on my laptop computer. My family knows to leave me alone at these times because they understand my needs. I e... |

Hi Samara. I think most of us, if not all, with Asperger's (or other spectrum) go through times like this. I think it is because we feel like those not on the spectrum don't understand us. And they probably don't. And it is hard for us to understand what it's like to be NT. But I have come to unders... |

I would like to see this for real. I have often tried to explain to my wife what it is like to have AS. And I am so thankful that she puts up with me willingly and lovingly. But still, a NT cannot know what it is truly like unless they have it. Since we are on the topic of a simulator for AS, how ma... |

Very interesting and thought provoking, but I know what it implies. A person could have unrelated little symptoms here and there that just by coincidence are most/all the symptoms of one particular thing like Asperger's. I don't know if I am going to be off base here or not. But I will say it anyway... |

Hi Chris. I don't know for sure what I have to offer to you, but I would like to communicate with you anyway. I am 44 years old and was recently diagnosed with Asperger's. My social skills are not good, and I have the intense interests so typical of Aspies. When I was diagnosed, I was told that sinc... |

Hi SMARTIE and welcome to the wrongplanet. Since you have been a member for awhile I hope you have found the site useful so far. You mentioned being in denial when you learned of your diagnosis. I was actually relieved when I got my diagnosis. For me, I finally realized I wasn't alone in the world a... |

Hi not a drop and welcome to the wrongplanet. I also enjoy poetry and studied a lot of it in college years ago. I was diagnosed with Asperger's not too long ago. But getting a diagnosis isn't for everyone. I just wanted to know. Anyway, enjoy the site. |

Hi Katie and welcome to the wrongplanet. You shouldn't get lost here. Yes, it is a big community, but I have found that whenever I post something, it usually isn't long before someone responds. Enjoy the site and hope you find it useful. |
