If there's one thing that makes me downright homicidal though, its all the stories I hear about Auties and Aspies being abused
Same here, I've also gotta strong sense of justice. I stick up for all kids who are being bullied/ostracised, including aspies, auties etc.... I'm the sort of vigilante or batman of my school, lol. The old me who WAS bullied, picked on, grew up in a abusive home, who didn't fight back is dead. Ever since my last trauma, I've become the opposite of how I used to be. I'm the leader of my group of friends, I'm confident, charismatic, strong-willed, and me friends look up to me and respect me. Know one would know that I have problems with "theory of mind", seeing other's perspectives, intentions, states of mind etc.... As I compensate for it during social situations so well. Maybe I have to work it bit harder than others, to see their points of view, but I can still do it if I try.
I guess I have Asperger traits as most guys do, maybe slightly more than most guys do, but they're definitely not extreme enough to give a big name like high functioning autism or apserger's syndrome.
