I send them message and they answered me yesterday:
http://mssa.org.mk/en/index.php
President invite me to come, told me that have never met aspie in his life, he wrote book about asparger syndrome. Also, he told me that have never was recognized person with asparger in my country and there is not organization for aspargers. He wondered how I'm 39 and no one realized that i'm aspie. And my replay probably was mistake, i wrote him lot of about me, after this he didn't replay me. I'm confused, i have feeling that he scary of one aspie or he thinks that i lay, and he will never replay me. What should i do? Forget to connect with this organization, no help for me, wait for replay or write him again and ask him?!?! :roll:

sorry, friend- the only thing i could suggest would be to write them again, and register with the website if you haven't already done that, as that would put you in their email loop at least. good luck.
bruce :)

I wrote him again, I have registered in site, but i had feelings how he so not treat me like normal person, and his answers were like nervous,and very strange was beside i told him that I'm from another city, i can come and lost my day, maybe he will accept me, maybe he will not have time, what is very strange. I think.. that i wrote him again, i have made big mistake.

Also he wondered why i used nickname, no my real name, all that make me feel bad feeling for him, i think our meeting going to be unfriendly, I'm not an optimist that he going to help me, anyway i decided, i going to meet him, let he say his opinion if i have asperger or i haven't.

I think that all you can do is go in there with an open mind and see what he says, but if he doesn't know about Asperger's Syndrome he might not be helpful. Just keep your expectations open so you are not too disappointed if he doesn't understand. Good luck!

I was to bay vitamins which gave me doctor who diagnosed me asperger.. Pharmacist was surprised, why to big amounts. I had in plan to hide, but nothing, and i told them about my asperger. Two women pharmacist weren't to surprise, they were nice, but avoided me to look in eyes, since man was nervous, probably they don't know that people with asperger can open look in eyes, but he i think had prejudices, that don't like people with autism, since for asperger he have never heard, I think that even was ready report to police, I feel bad in my stomach. I live in conservative town where people to not accept different people and pharmacist man gave me with his behavior negative energy. I scary :(

Nikoa, can you move to a larger city with more open-minded people? unfortunately, small town=provincialism [fear of the different], most of the time.

I going to try, let we see, doctor said i should drink 4 months, if i don't see difference i will stop. What is your opinion, what can help me, to socialize, find job and have right behavior with my sons?..Because they suffer, to have asperger mother isn't easy.

Perhaps you shouldn't have told the pharmacist you have Asperger's.

Provincialism and intolerance characterizes the whole Eastern-Europe. For example, I wouldn't tell my colleagues and other than my closest friends and relatives that I have something to do with ASD.
