I didnt have a language delay, I had a circle of friends in high school (all losers btw).

I only cut off all my friend ships after accussing myself of having Autism.

The thing is, why was I so quiet in school? why was I a loner? WHY WHY WHY?

Most of the population has one or two qualities that can be identified to autism. Perhaps you were shy or you couldn't find other people to share your interests, whatever those interests were/are. You haven't given us enough information what you were like in highschool to really speculate as to why you were a loner. Some NT's just like being alone.

Maybe you don't. But why are you asking us? How are we supposed to know? Research your family history. Ask someone. Think back to your childhood. Do your own research. But don't ask a bunch of random people on the Internet all these questions, because really, we cannot help you provided the tiny emotionally-laden bits of information you give about yourself.

Posting online about your problems will not magically solve them. If anything, it will only make them worse, because you'll be obsessing over them instead of doing something about it.

I'm glad that you've made peace, with yourself.

Are you (A) self-diagnosed or were you (B) diagnosed by a professional, especially one who (C) used a combination of objective measures, third-party report on history, and interview? How many professionals have agreed on your diagnosis over the years?

If (A), it is simply possible that you were wrong for any number of reasons.

If (B), the probability of being wrong drops somewhat.

If (C), the probability of being wrong drops significantly.

If (C) multiple times, then the probability of being wrong drops even more.

None of those reasons disqualify you from having autism. This is obviously bothering you, so maybe you should speak to somebody who is an expert in diagnosing adults with ASDs.
What is the reason for your social difficulties? Do you feel anxious around people, or is it more than that? (you find it difficult to understand non-verbal communication and other people, you can't relate to other people, conversations and eye contact are difficult for you, etc.)

Your troubles all stem from the fact that you're a troll. :)

Don't worry... Trolls are people too! I'm confident that you can find a life eventually, if you try hard enough. Us aspies will help you through it.

Well, I can't really teel seeing as I have never met you in person and I don't specialise in autism (I'm trying to work in the creative industry). However, being quiet and shy does not necessarily mean that you are autistic. Many autistics are loud, are not shy and didn't have a language delay. However, you have implied that you don't get on with people and you have certain expectation of people (you accused your circle of friends of being a bunch of losers and pushed them away when you found an excuse for your problems, for example). That doesn't mean that you have or that you don't have autism, but you should really try to get help if you feel like it is preventing you from getting on in life.

Autism is way more than just being shy and quiet.

Oh, and if you want to talk about depressing things, it's probably best that you go to the haven.

Not to pick nits, but what made you put in "autism other" in the "box." That is for a diagnoses, Corp.

There is something really wrong here though, as you've posted a desperation of autistic symptoms along with despair and depression in other threads.

If they say you dont have it, what are they saying that you do have? If you went to a doctor and presented a case of symptoms and they decline a diagnoses, what do they offer in its stead?
What do they say?

Actually the term trolling refers to a type of fishing where they tie bait and drive around with the bait on the water causing unknowing fish to follow along and get hooked.
