A question for classic autistics
What program in school are you in ? Regular ed or special ed? What is school like for you?
Aspies can join in too.

Well I was at a regular school but for some of the time in special classes, I hated normal school it was a living hell. The special classes were better, the teacher who ran the unit was much better and more friendly than the "normal" teachers.

Diagnosed under the DSM5 rules with autism spectrum disorder, under DSM4 psychologist said would have been AS (299.80) but I suspect that I am somewhere between 299.80 and 299.00 (Autism) under DSM4.

I know you aimed your question at those with classic Autism however I hope you don't mind if I answer too.
Diagnosed ASD I was told in would have been Asperger's a couple of years ago.
I went to mainstream schooling jen and let me tell you it was Hell on earth for me.
I was bullied by almost everybody.
Doing physical education was the worst the two most popular boys would get to pick teams and I would be the very last sitting there nobody wanted me.
I sometimes wish that PE teacher dies a horrible death of cancer in dreadful pain that is how much of a scar that experience has left on me.
Jen Aspies are not some elite among autistics.
My spelling is bad my social skills are a joke.
I have never been independent nor have I ever managed to get into a relationship.
I have all the sensory issues that go with autism and I have failed my driving test twice this year.
Having said all that Jen I am looking at life in a positive way.
Jen if the classes you are in are helping you use them and don't feel ashamed.
Being so called high functioning I can appear close to normal or even normal if I don't have to get to know a person.
Close is not good enough however the degree of Autism does not really matter Autistics don,t fit in with mainstream society.
Jen you like your doll collection I like my sc fi movies and trust me at 40 my interest is not considered normal but I don't care I enjoy them.
We are all Autistics here.
