But good luck with life anyway. You seem to think you have it all figured out. At thirteen. I'll try not to burst the bubble of your delusion.


While I disagree that you can't learn social skills.

Never said you couldn't.

Dude every aspie is different. Course it willnot be easy, but u just gave up. And I'm not giving up like most aspies here.

I never gave up. I learned all the cues and whatnot. People simply could tell that I was autistic regardless. Here's some advice, don't pretend to be what you're not. You're not NT, so don't act like it. Embrace your autism. Work around the difficulties and hone your skills. People will know you're not the same as everyone else no matter what you do.

I don't expect you to be swayed though, given that you're 13 and likely have the stubbornness that so plagues kids these days. Goodluck though.


I agree. There really isn't anything one can do to totally be seen as NT. We're not. One can learn to fake eye contact, things like that, but life has gotten easier since I stopped trying to present myself as totally NT. I still fake eye contact so as not to squick people too much (it's also become sort of second nature when I'm in a job-like situation) but I try not to worry too much anymore about the differences that I used to worry about. Some might call that giving up but I call it stress reduction.

I use to be depressed, but I am no longer depressed! I won`t let myself be depressed again! I am rather happy now, and I have Billy Idol to thank for that! He saved me from depression! And I love this site, and I have Alex to thank for that for making it!

The last time that I was depressed was the August of 2009. I'm a very happy person these days. :)

Guys, last year I really had poor social skills. This year I had a dastric change not to have poor skills, but not at age level. I am a mild aspie, with NT parents who researched and kno more about asperger than me.. and all I need is to lern the non verbel messages and ill be better, and facial expressions. Every NT has their own type of social issues, but us aspies need more preactice. I am 13 and this forum just has depressed aspies which I don't need, I know I will be way better.

Bai!! !!


*sigh*
You've still got a lot to learn, kid.

Kido You have no idea what the real wold is like. I'm successful and depressed but its a state of mind and it will pass As to faking being an nt instead of being your self Wrong road it will lead you to a nervous break down.

I'm not going to refer to you as kid or kiddo to avoid looking conceited or young myself, but I will say this, Aspie:
Good luck to you and hope to see you back here soon :) you will probably come back on a different name, go through various phases and whatnot. The thing about acting is you're acting now, you just don't realise it yet. A lot of us also do this or have unknowingly done this when we were in our adolescence. Once we reach adulthood, though, and have to deal with bigger problems....we break down and that's when it gets worse.

At least consider lurking on the boards to learn more about the condition to help you in the future. You may not need to talk to us which is just fine :) but you can still learn from us (or more importantly, how we cope at different points in our lives).

Take care. All the best.

-JM

This forum is the only way that I can talk to people who understand.

Trust me, even people that know a lot of info about it don't really understand.

Whoever you are and whatever age you are... We'll just call you a kid...

So everyone's depressed? What an astute observation... I'm not depressed either. I will get right to the point here. You are young, immature, inexperienced, have little concept of reality, and therefore do not even entirely grasp what you are writing about. I do not count on you reading this as this thread is kind of old, but it matters not. While it is your choice and right to leave Wrong Planet, it would be to your advantage not to immediately dismiss everyone and deem them to be "depressed" based on some flawed perception of the general populace here at Wrong Planet. I also understand that you probably will not be able to entirely comprehend what I am typing here, but perhaps one day when you grow up and come back here because you are in dire need of friendly assistance from a plethora of incredible people, you may finally understand the greater value of forming constructive social bonds with such wonderful people. Wrong Planet is here for those who need it, those who like it, and those who use it to help humanity through all kinds of challenges which this ever changing world has, and continues to present to us as people. In the future, please be careful of dismissing people and incredible support networks such as Wrong Planet.
