Hello, my name's Archie and I'm 16. I was diagnosed with Asbergers syndrome at the age of 4 and I have joined to ask the questions that Neurotypical people and I cannot answer.
Hi Archie!Hello, my name's Archie and I'm 16. I was diagnosed with Asbergers syndrome at the age of 4 and I have joined to ask the questions that Neurotypical people and I cannot answer.
Well I don't believe I'm broken in any way, I'm just here to ask the questions about Aspergers that I've had for a long time and NT's cannot answer because they don't understand. Thanks for the support though.Hi Archie. Welcome to AC.
I know questions from NTs can be a real pain. You do not have to answer them if you do not want to. One of the things you can say, that is popular on here is that you are not broken, and do not need to be fixed because your brain is just wired differently. Then you can say something like, "Thank you for your concern", so you won't seem rude about it.
