It should be "If you've met one person with Asperger's, you've only met one person with Asperger's."

The deeper we go into the 21st century, the more people act like it's the Stone Age and less like the literal meaning of Homo Sapiens (wise man). :(

That's a very stupid stereotype. If you've met one aspie, you've met one aspie. I like being around people, I'm able to work and I do have an imagination as well. I'm also able to be flexible with my schedule until it's 10 PM on a weeknight and than I must watch Hogan's Heroes on Me TV before bed. I also love babies and children and I think they're cute. However, bright lights and sunlight bothers my eyes. I also use my German helmet that I payed $100 for as a weighted hat as a substitute for a weighted vest that would probably cost $500.
Love your new avatar!!

Schultzy, Do you actually get the same effect from a weighted hat as you would a weighted vest or blanket? That is such a great idea if it really works well.


I've never tried a weighted blanket before. The helmet has a calming effect on me, though.
Fantastic. I have a Samurai helmet. I might try putting it on to see if it calms me. Unfortunately it is very small though so it probably won't fit but I can see if it has any effect on me.


I've always liked wearing my motorcycle helmet in the house.
