I guess I have had some idea about having a Neurological disorder since about 2 years ago, it had never been questioned. Me and my wife began going to play groups with our kids as they are home schooled. Everyone suspected my son of being "different." We looked into it. We have never had a diagnosis. We help him in dealing with the things that bother him. It seems to help, and it is slow going, he has made some progress. We suspect him of having Sensory Processing Disorder.

At one point I had some fellow advise me that probably have Aspergers, but "just a little bit." This was a co-worker and a stranger to me.

I just took a test online and out of 200 questions, I scored 119.

I do have trouble relating to people, and making friends.

Although some people seem to jump out at me... I cannot tell why however....

Others i find put on a false persona, until you speak to them everything seems comfortable...... then you realize that it is merely pleasantries and fake smiles. I do not know why I can sense sincerity, but i can also tell when people are hiding behind laughter....


I have not always been this way though.... Maybe I am just realizing these things.


I do not know what questions to ask, nor what advise I should seek. But maybe it will be enough in learning a bit and fraternizing with yall.

Hi,
We homeschooled too and my son was somewhat 'different'. It worked well because of the large ammount of boys his age in the local group & he has gone on to join the Air Force and will deploy soon for the first time. He is definately a chip off a 'different' shoulder (mine) although when I was growing up we didn't know much about the less obvious cases of autism. I am really not sure which is better, everyone knowing or everyone not knowing, but it is moot point now cause you can't go back.

Hope you can pick up some useful knowledge here, but I was wondering who is this 'Yall' you wish to fraternize with ? I don't remember seeing them around, and I think I would have remembered a cool name like that. :wink: :lol:
