Introduction and Question(s)
My name is Mason, and I don't know if I'm an Aspergers or not.
All my life I've been having nervous tics, I've always been fascinated with specific objects, and people have always said I don't show much emotion.
As for my obsession with certain curriculums: my fascination is theology, and trying to disprove it. Every chance I get I debunk religious stories, theories, everything that pertains to praying or worshiping anything.

Not to mention I have a great number of social handicaps, it seems. In one online quiz I took once, it told me I had a risk of having every social handicap, except for being Dependent. It told me I was very highly Paranoid, though. And that's true. Many instances at school I feel as if someone wants to sneak up behind me and hit me, or wound me in some way--so I always am cautious.
My mom's a b***h. I'm a very nihilistic atheist, and she's a Christian, so she constantly dogs me about my beliefs--or lack thereof. Whenever we try to debate, she gives me nothing but pragmatic arguements, usually relating to sentimental activities or feelings of love for one another. Though, she doesn't display any of that around me. She supports me in terms of materialistic desires, but she never wants to talk to me. She tells me I'm boring, that I'm weird, she tells me to change. She hates that I'm pro-abortion.
I guess I don't get made fun of at school, just stabbed in the back a lot. I go to a small school, so everyone knows me. I have a reputation for being weird yet intellectual and smart at school, but I f*****g hate when someone tries to flatter me to get my attention.
I'm prone to random outbursts of anger sometimes, especially in athletic activies. I'm more of a nerd and I like to read and partake in deep and fulfilling conversations. That's one reason I just stay at home and browse Internet forums a lot.
I'm a Grammar Nazi.
I have many different theories, opinions, or ideas that I keep to myself for two reasons:
1) They are peculiarly odd cruel, ergo a lack of understanding from ordinary people.
2) Many people can't follow me in my train of thought, and that confuses me.
I admire Hitler and Fascist views greatly, but I don't know why. I don't let people from real life into this secret, because I don't even know why I admire Hitler. I just do, and I embrace who I am.
I'm fourteen years old, and live in America. I live in the Bible Belt of America, where many people think atheists are Satanists. I hate obesity in America for the large part, and I hate when people go out in public not caring about their appearance. I hate that many people are okay with average lifes working on a barge, or being an average parent. I have no plans to carry on snivelling brats of children on my own. I don't plan on getting married and having a woman nag and b***h at me for the rest of my life. I plan on getting through to a high level of education and following my career. I don't know what that will be yet, but I do plan on being an author at some point or another. I'm also interested in teaching, though only at college level. Theology, Math, Science, and Literature interests me the most.
I'm fourteen years old, like I've said, and I live in America. And that's it. That's me.
And now for the question:
Do you think I have Aspergers Syndrome? I don't know, but I think I have something.
Welcome to wrongplanet. You might have Asperger's. You haven't said anything that makes me think otherwise.

Given the way you introduced yourself I think there's a good chance you have Asperger's

My mom told me tonight after an arguement that I was getting counseling.
I'm actually happy about it, I need someone to talk to.
What do you think the Counselor will say to me? I mean, I don't want to be taken out of my home, really, but I hope he notices that something is wrong with me.
Or am I paranoid?

Hi!
Welcome to Wrongplanet! I hope you enjoy posting here!
Yes you do seem to exhibit AS traits. But you also apparently have anger and other emotional issues in addition. I would agree that seeing a counselor would be a good idea.
Also an informal bit of FYI: I'm Jewish and there probably are other people here who are Jewish. Be aware of that if by chance your admiration of Hitler and fascism includes antisemitism. I personally don't care if you have an intellectual curiosity about this things, and I persoanlly don't care if you hate Jews. But if you wish to rant on about "killing Jew dogs" or something in that vein, I suggest you take it to one of the scores of antisemitic forums elsewhere on the net.
Also, there are many religious people here, including myself. Please be respectful towards us. You are free to debate religion in the religion and philosophy forum, but do so respectfully, intelligently and rationally. While this site does encourage individual expression, you should not confuse that with a sense of entitlement to be hostile, abusive or otherwise transfer your emotional problems onto strangers without immediate consequence.
People with AS frequently encounter bullying, and we come to sites like this one to get away from that. I say this because there are things in your post that concern me. It's not a matter of me judging you - rather it's that a person's words can reveal more about them than they intend or are aware of, and Aspies are exactly the type of people to pick up on that. However, if you can be respectful to other members here without resorting to any form of bullying - be it intellectual (and that would include harassing people over grammar), ideological, psychological, verbal, or emotional - then I'm sure you'll be welcomed here, regardless of whether you have AS or not.
