    What to except when being diagnosed with Autism

    I'm in a similar place, actually. A couple years back I had an epiphany that I didn't seem to see the world in the same way as everybody else, and have since come to strongly suspect I may have Asperger's/be on the high end of the spectrum. No real idea, though. I never got a proper diagnosis...

    Hi and stuff

    I've always wondered what it is about eye contact... I really can't stand making eye contact, but I honestly can't understand why... ah, the mysteries of being an aspie.

    Hi and stuff

    God, I find eye contact literally painful. I just *can't* do it for long, but I'll force myself to, so as to at least appear that I'm paying attention. As for names and faces... my family can't understand when I don't recognize certain distant relatives that I've met before, but the fact is...

    Hope for the undiagnosed: Dx doesn't *have* to be hard-going

    Aye, as a person with comorbid conditions, even I did not see it, for most of my life. I was just a guy with ADHD, living his life, dealing with my attention problems, and forgetfulness. I knew about autism and Aspergers, but I always thought, "That's not me", I'm "normal". But, it kinda just...

    Want someone to be a friend, but they are not interested

    The sad thing is, I can't win, in any way. I'm afraid to try and pursue friendships with NTs, because I'm adraid they'll reject me for being too weird. But on the other hand, I'm afraid to pursue a friendship with an Aspie, because I fear they'd reject me fot being aspie enough, not having an...

    Want someone to be a friend, but they are not interested

    I have a few online friends. The web is great for meeting people and becoming friends.

    Want someone to be a friend, but they are not interested

    I don't have any real friends, and I have no idea how to make friends. This pains me, because I do so desperately want real friends in my life... It's hard to accept.

    Is it obvious that you are aspergic

    These fears are overwhelming, though. What if I am wrong? Short of getting a professional diagnosis, these doubts are driving me crazy. What do I do? I honestly feel crazy sometimes.

    Is it obvious that you are aspergic

    I get tired of wearing masks... I wear so many... Masks to hide my depression, masks to hide my true feelings. Nobody knows the real me, to be honest...

    Looking a lot younger?

    I've always looked much younger than my real age. Used to hate it, but now I consider it an asset.

    Is it obvious that you are aspergic

    I've had Aspies tell me I act like an Aspie, my family blame it all on my ADHD, and NTs tell me I'm odd, but that's it... I get so many conflicting things, I that I seesaw back and forth, somedays convinced I *must* be an Aspie, other days believing I'm just a fraud, looking for attention. It...

    Steriotypes

    Being very thin myself, I get the accusations that I don't eat enough all the time.
