I have more then one disorder.
First, I have Asperger's.
Secondly, I can't handle napkins at all. And i have to fix every single word on the page perfectly- and I don't like pens or normal pencils.

Finally, I have a tethered cord- with surgery next week, and I am so nervous- i don't think it's about the surgery, it's the fact that I'm graduating in June, and that I worry about not being able to walk for it. i hope I can, but what if I can't. I just want to be safe, I guess. I don't like all the fear- I guess it's worry. And I might miss senior prom and senior picnic.

Do you have more then one disorder? Tell what you have.

They would have had to drag me kicking and screaming to a senior prom or senior picnic or ANYTHING having to do with senior in HS. Senior prom? I'd rather shoot holes in my feet!

BTW, you're the first person I've ever met (so to speak) that can't handle napkins, pens or pencils. I hope this isn't causing you too much distress in your life.

Well I have Aspergers and other then that I have PTSD, Depression and Anxiety.....I also have a lot of lower back pain which I am not 100% sure what the cause is. I get muscle cramps really easily those two aren't necessarily disorders but still unpleasant.

My mom said that lower back pain is quite
And oops- I won't be missing senior picnic- I'll be missing the all night party and senior prom.

By the way, redrobin62, I have something to say.
How would you like a cut on your back, your scar there, and you have to lay on that scar for at least 24 hours, 8O after dealing with surgery. :(
Is that better then Senior Prom at all? :?:

On the other hand, napkins do cause issues. Mechanical pencils are the way I deal with the other issues, but napkins are more common and harder to deal with.

I think an obsessive compulsive disorder is probably the worse thing. I believe that getting my cord fixed can reduce my general anexity, but I might still fear napkins.

What do you mean, fix every word on a page perfectly? (Is it grammar? Because if so 'then' should be 'than'. :P)

Officially I have about 10 different mental things instead of Aspergers but I'm pretty sure I have AS instead of some of those others. The 1s I think I have along with AS are~
Dyslexia
Generalized Anxiety Disorder & Panic Disorder which is being managed well by Buspar
OCD which is being helped by Neurontin
Possible Post Traumatic Stress
ADD or ADHD but my problems focusing & other issues could be caused by other things
