    Don't like Asperger's classed same as low functioning autism.

    I have been to autism social groups where I feel out of place and have more in common with what they call NTs, as some of the low functioning people seem to have completely different symptoms. Some of them just seem to have brain damage, as one said she was starved of oxygen as a baby, yet it's...

    I don't like how the USA are trying to get everybody to think that low functioning autism and Asperger's syndrome are all the same thing.
