So my dad has aspergers and he thinks i have it.

I occasionally see patterns and stuff more recently now that i have affiliated aspergers with patterns.

Im extremely obsessive but on about 4 different things. I thought its two?

HATE lookng people in the eyes. I am usually thr last to pic okes up, and. Can be too literal sometimes.


But! From what ive seen ( my mom was a dance teacher, ballet ) i'm fairly coordinated (. Think i spelled that right idk) yet i noticed to my shock, because i thought i didnt haave the probably, am disturbed greatly by loud noises, even tho i would sometimes blare music, i usually dont. I dont like jet planes or loud noises. Im pretty sure noone likes bright likes so i dont get that.

I do wear lose cclothing, except jeans as they are very uttilitarian as compared to khakis, where things tend to fall out when sitting.

I have awkward sitting positions, often sitting on one leg in a chair.

Thru self examination and people telling me, have very "cartoony" expressions and often laugh at my own jokes, but am the only one laughing at them.


I have horrid handwriting yet ( contrary to the grammatical, spelling laziness caused by my ipad) excel in english and am great at defining withing context and using pure logic alone without even knowing rules with punctuation ( again, not demonstrated in this makeshift post).

I excel musically and am currently studying notes in an attempt to attain perfect pitch. I have communication problems and my mom, when she was around had told me i started talking at a later age but when she asked me back then i would reply " i just didnt know what to say" implying i didnt have much initiative for conversation or ?

Furthermore, i find myself reading whole chapters from science box, textbooks, when im bored, and prefer that over novels as they tend to bore me.

Sounds like it. I'd say very likely you have it.

Lights give me migraines and seizures, if they flash fast enough. But that's normal, right? Everyone hates bright lights.

Nevermind me. I had a pounding headache today.

Yes, some things sound like Asperger's. You can have good coordination or bad. I had great coordination as a kid, I must have fallen out of a tree and damaged my brain when I was an adolescent because that's when it started to get worse. I also have an inner ear problem.

If you want to get an official diagnosis then you go to your doctor and ask for a referral, usually a psychiatrist who is qualified to diagnose it.

Do you feel impaired at all by your symptoms? As it is a disorder I think you should leave a formal diagnosis to those who have difficulties in their life because of their disorder. Of course it's your choice, it just makes little sense to me why people get diagnosed with a developmental disorder when they have hardly any developmental issues. Man, that was some headache. Turned me into a right basstid.
