Do you agree that having aspergers is a real pain in the ass? I have symptoms that make it hard for me to function in society and even though not impossible its a lot harder for me to function at the same levle as other people.

I have a friend who complains about how much being 6ft8 sucks and he has no idea then what having asergers is like.

Do you agree that having AS is a real roadblock in life? I think aspergers is worse than most conditions and disorders.

There are good points to AS but at the end of the day the bad outweighs the good my opinion. You only get one shot in life and to be 'gifted' with AS makes life a real challenge.

I have typical aspergers not just 'mild' i would love to have mild aspergers but unfourtantly i have classic AS.

personally, i try and deal with them by taking small steps and not trying to fix everything at once.
because if you do that you get all stressed out and angry.


don't worry about it. ^.^
i snap at people all the time.
as long as people apologise - no problems here!

Hey, I'm not mild AS either, and I still enjoy it. If you can find a way to work around the social difficulties and not get bogged down by every mistake, it's actually really fun. :D

1) There is no such thing as "classic AS"
2) Asperger's is awesome

Aspergers is a more colorful way of looking at the world and life.
