parent education and training
specialized educational interventions for the child
social skills training
language therapy
sensory integration training for younger children, usually performed by an occupational therapist, in which a child is desensitized to stimuli to which he is overly sensitive
psychotherapy or behavioral/cognitive therapy for older children
medications


The one in bold is never going to happen for me!

We don't have social skills. That's a curse.

A good whistler is always a crowd attracter.

I know how you feel, dude. This city is like a pimple on society's butt. Well, most of it, anyways.

Trust me, friends aren't that great. In particular NT friends ( I dont have any aspie friends).
They're cold, cruel, Insult your every movement until you are dumbed down enough to act like one of them- AND they place expectations on you.
Most of all, They are [i]Frustrating[/i]. Annoying. Sometimes i think it would be better if i had no friends (NT anyway). Once they're there you can't go your seperate way.
I can't really get my opinion through in an understandable way and it's really frustrating me, So i'll just end this with " having friends isn't that great".

As for how I got friends, well, it reamains a mystery to me to this day. I guess from what i remember, that on my 1st day of high school ( new area, no one knew me) people saw me sitting alone in classes and felt sorry for me and then tried to include me.
:huh:
