Hi Eric, I have never seen a therapist. It's hard to find AS information and professionals here in México, and I'm undiagnosed.

I feel I don't need therapy because I'm not disabled, sick or deranged. But sometimes I think I need to see someone who listen to me, and keep everything I would say as a secret. Is that the function of a therapist/psychologist/ or whatever? Then you shouldn't be pressured to talk about your therapy.

And, although I'm not handicapped, it would be cool if the goverment give money because of my AS :lol:

Thanks for your input everyone.

Tomarrow is the day.

I feel that no one is on my side except myself. It's a sad feeling. It's like my parents will trust the therapist more then what I have to say..........I don't know, It's just how I feel right now.


I'm fearing that this therapist will be agenst my belief in freedom of speech regarding Dark Humor and Satire.

Why must I need approval from my parents each and everytime I make a funny film, it's like I'm being babied at age 21. GOD!

It's not like I'm a Homoside maniac or anything, I'm just a humorist Satirist!

I feel like I need to stand up for my interest and prove her wrong and say "NO! It's not a problem! LEAVE MY SENSE OF HUMOR ALONE!"

I feel like I'm going to court and needing to prove why my sense of humor should be free and to prove that I'm not mentally sick persay, I just have a sick sense of humor.

It's like people think humor is the biggest threat in the freaking world. AND I'm THE ONE WHO CAN'T READ SOCIAL CUES! These NTs Can, so couldn't they know better? Huh?

I have to keep seeing Theripists for the rest of my life so I can Goverment money for my disability, it's complicated, I don't fully understand it myself.

My old Theripist went on retirement so I got this new Theripist who totally doesn't have a sense of humor. I have a dark, sick and twisted, satirical sense of humor probably because I watch too much violent controversal cartoons. LOL But yeah, she told me how my sense of humor is just plan wrong and I need to think positive and crap. I told her about the insident where I made this cartoon of a newscaster saying untruthful things about me and someone thought that it was a suicide threat and was consern about me. I told my parents, what if I run out of things to talk about and they said "You'll always have something to talk about". Which I kind of took a bit hard like, You have Asperger's, you'll always be emotionally unstable so you have to go to a theripist.........well I'm just going so I can prove to the state that.......................(sigh) I have a mental disability (Asperger's) so I can get Goverment Money.

If I had a job, I wouldn't have to worry about Goverment money but I don't know, I guess it's importaint for me to get the money sense I don't have a job and it's like a right for me to get money because I have Asperger's. I can care less about Theiripists and Goverment Money but like I said, I don't have a job, so I guess it's backup so I can never be homeless.

I already feel lonely that I'm the only one on the planet who has a cartoon violent sense of humor, don't need to make my loneliness having a Theripist telling me that It's wrong to laugh at a cartoon character getting shot or hanging it's self. IT"S NOT REAL, IN FACT IT'S ART!
GOOOOOOOOOOOOD!! !! !! !!
they get grazy ideas out of no where sometimes i wonder if u need to be grazy you self to get therapist lisence

How many of you Aspies need to see a therapist?

Do you enjoy your Therapists or do you not like them?

Apart from getting diagnosed I've only been to a therapist once, it was so long ago I can't even remember it I vaguely recalling that it went well.

Though im sure this reply is a day late i'll still put it out there, your not alone on your side, i like my therapist, but there are some days where it almost makes my depression and anxiety worse. I was told she would help me with social skills, but we havn't gone over anything in that matter? :roll: Unless theres something on my mind, i go, i listen to her, and if i dont have anything to say, well i just sit there, she usually asks another question at that point about something totally unrelated to depression, like " So you like school?", yeah if i remeber correctly i have school phobia, so i doubt i like school :lol:

Hi everyone, I just want to thank you all for the input. I just saw my therapist today and she seems a lot nicer then what I thought she was. She understands me better and I guess everything is going to be okay. Thanks again everyone.

It's spelled therapist. As in the-rapist.


^ LOVE that!!

Um...about your poll: How many times am I allowed to click 'yes?'

Therapists (aka: the-rapist) can be a special brand of nutty....I've met them.

Therapists charge you $100, the price of ten hours of continuous labor, just to sit for an hour and 'talk to a friend.' You aren't even allowed to date them.

Clinicians have written very haughty and presumptuous things about me, making me appear to be worse than I really am. If you want to read some of these things, see my essay, Expected Reward and Psychosis. It's as if they tried to make me feel bad so that I would come back for more.

They have almost never helped me. It is even dangerously possible that the function of a doctor is to create and maintain a 'sick side' of the gene pool that will continually slave for them by paying money just to function normally. A doctor who creates sickness -- how counterintuitive is that?

After their ludicrous assessment of my condition, it's no wonder I don't claim to have Asperger's anymore.

If anyone has ever been mistreated, belittled, or underestimated by their doctors, know that there's someone out there who knows that you're smart and that you don't have to put up with their lies.
