AS is like this for me. Half the time I like it; half the time I hate it. I have a creative mind and an interest in videogames and cartoon drawing and animation. I have bad social skills, I stutter, I space out, I talk about what I want to talk about in a conversation, and I have an allergic sensitivity to certain mouth sounds. I don't like talking directly to people too often because I've met people who smack their lips before starting a new sentence. I really hate that.
I have had few problems in classes at the college level with people who are insensitive towards me for having Aspergers. However, I am in a Social Work class where the entire class requires working in groups and social interactions and situations. When I do ask questions sometimes my classmates laugh and when I don't I am very uncomfortable or get lost. It drives me nuts!

Very interesting about the handwriting thing, I'd not heard that. Writing by hand has always greatly fatigued me.
One thing I don't get, though, is the "Aspies can't understand sarcasm, metaphors etc." stuff. I've always fully understood these things. They often annoy me, but they don't go over my head.
What a joke! I myself have Aspergers syndrome and i hate how everyone is trying to profit from us with garbage like this.

Probably what affects me the most as an aspie is sensitivity to sound. I had trouble in high school because there would be so much noise from people talking that it would give me massive headaches. I do so much better in college because it's much more quiet.
Most of all, I love to read, especially about history (I think that would be my "aspie obsession), but I can't concentrate on reading unless it's absolutely quiet. So, I am not able to read as often as I would like.
Not really. my mum works for the national austistic society and has studied physology at university. You can be diagnosed with aspergers when you're a child. You're right in some sense of way that most people would not get diagnosed with any type of disability until they're adults. It doesn't have to be just aspergers or autism. My mum has been diagnosed at the age of 32 with dislexic. I on the other hand have been diagnosed with autism when I was 2 years of age and so did my friends.
@tthheeffuunnyymmaann Yes, I do have AS as a matter of fact, and once my term in the ARMY is done I am heading back to school! Some instructors, profs, teachers, and other assorted folk in the world of academia can be quite cruel. Others can be quite understanding. It all depends on the person. Knowing I have AS makes it easier to deal, even though difficulties do remain.
I hear ya. I don't tell anyone for the same reason. So to all them I'm just strange for no reason. The first person I told back in 2001, my first girlfriend ever at age 19, she broke up with me, and actually never talked to me ever again despite my attempts. These sorts of things haunt me. So I never tell anyone.
@abyssquick I'm sorry that happened with your girlfriend. I don't think you should rule out telling anyone altogether. For years I never told anyone (diagnosed 13 years ago). There are always going to be intolerant people out there. Not everyone is like that though. I have been very careful about who I've told, and overall have been fortunate enough to have most be understanding.
Anyone that claims to be an advocate for autism I really question their motives and sincerity. Most of them are in it for the attention, power and money I think.
The heavy set guy talks way to fast, It is also an assumption that a person who is handicapped or has aspergers knows what they to need help them progress in a college situation, The college should find ways to accommodate the student with disabilities as well as find ways to improve the individuals limitations.

I was going to end the debate ,on my last comment,but since you've mentionned the example of an 80 IQ down syndrome person condemned not to be successful,i had to intervene,that person could have more of a purpose in this life than a successfull person in forbes magazine,it could be as simple as beeing the cement that holds a family together who otherwise could have been broken up,i see these people as angels walking the earth ,cause they're almost guaranteed to go heaven,here the low IQ is a +
Kill the aspies! Drive them to the oceans, and drown their young! Impale them on fallen branches tipped with obsidian! Tie up their hands and feet, set fire to their faces, and let them slowly sink in quicksand! Smash their hands and feet, then lock them in a cage full of hungry, angry pigs! Create a huge beef grinder, then feed them through, slowly, feet-first! Shove thermite up their asses! Grease them up, and shove them down the throats of whales! Skin them alive then kill 'em all with fire!
This is the most responsible and sensitive video I've ever seen regarding the MUTUAL social adaptation of "Aspies" and "neuro-typicals" I've ever seen. :D
Jesus... today everyone thinks that they are entitled to go to college. People with special needs are given help on their tests and work such as more time or a calculator. This makes sense through highschool but not for higher ed. College is not for everybody, if you need special help... you shouldn't be there in the first place. This is why just simply having an undergraduate degree is just about worthless these days. We need to make a fundamental change.
@drcool010 You're right, college isn't for everybody. I know a lot of people with no special ed and average IQs who have no application ability when it comes to learning in college and they should have just gone straight into working in an office. I also know an 18 year old autistic savant who can compute numbers at genius level but has difficulties with flickering lights and socialising. Cambridge University seemed to think she was worth taking on, special needs and all.
I have Asperger's and the only thing I hate about it is my sensitivity to sounds. Sometimes my parents would wish for a cure but if there was a cure and I consumed it, my bad symptoms would go away but what would happen to my good symptoms? My own world, my interests, etc. There is a myth that goes "If you can post a video on youtube, you're not autistic." My brother and I posted over 20 vids and we're autistic. I guess that makes us autistic mythbusters. I continue to disprove myths like those.
I wouldn't call aspergers a disability. It's more a gift. Sure it's a disability when I can't learn from repeating information (reading and writing) but that just means I learn better from doing things myself and seeing the results unfold.........
i have a.s. and i really dislike it but on the other hand i have above normal intelligence and i am very artistic but some times it can lead to me been cut off becouse most folk dont understand at all.
@Locke1217. What the hell is worng with you? How dare you say things like that. You have no idea what how much of an idoit your sounding like. Get a life and get a grip on your self.
@dwickedtv2. I know what your saying, but it's pepole like him that make me so mad. They really upsett me. Speaking as a AS suffer myself. These fools should be more understanding. Don't you agree?
@mightywarriorx Did you even read the deplorable comment that was posted by locke1217 that started that. Why do you say that he should shut up. He didn't say anything unreasonable.
@runeguldberg Rune, I just very recently found out I have aspergers. There are certain things that would be considered benefits. High IQ, super hearing, seeing, smell, and an Eidetic memory. But there is a downside as well. Its very similar to how a a deaf person has trouble speaking because they have never heard words. But for aspies, we have trouble expressing or recognizing emotions or social cues because we are usually blind to body language. So subtle hint (continued
@Agonising You have to realize that pretty much all advancements with ausperger's has happened in the last 20 years or so. It wasn't even an accepted diagnosis until 1994 officially. When I was diagnosed with asperger's 11 years ago, there were only a handful of counselor's in the country who actually knew enough to work with people who had it. I'm not trying to be mean, I'm trying to point out the facts, you can't really blame them for not catching it early.
I went to a art collage. I think lot of my classmates were Asperger's like me. OR some other type of mental issues. I guess I was lucky there. I was with my tribe.
I have asperger's and after receiving treatment I no longer start shaking when I talk to strangers, I don't have to worry about getting hit by a car when I wanna cross the street, people no longer call the police on me when I stand by myself in public places. Zeolite saved my life, I was ready to kill myself. I can actually function enough to live independently now.
This is a very good video BUT the part 1:55 - 2:06 is not for EVERYONE who got asperger, i have asperger but i understand it just as well as "normal people"
I had a guy in one of my college classes who had AS. He would take up the entire class time debating with the professor and he annoyed everybody. Also, when it was his birthday, his parents were in class with him. He was introducing everybody in the class to his parents and addressing us as "his friends". After that episode, I dropped the course and received a Zero. He scared the crap out of me.
That is just an extreme case of aspergers. There are varying levels of aspergers just as there are varying levels of athletic ability. I have aspergers but i wasn't diagnosed until age 18.
My friends describe me as repetitive and awkward. I don't know if someone is mad or annoyed by me until they cuss me out or say something ridiculous.
The non-functional aspergers syndrome people piss me off. Usually they are this way because of their pampering parents!
@Roguemember littlebigbrain and rockynurse do have a point. no two people are exactly alike. what you described was likely a severe case of asperger's. would you say that you are exactly the same as another person from your age group with no immediately distinctive qualities (such as asperger's, add, etc...). Bottom line it's completely foolish to judge an entire group on the actions of one person.
@Roguemember Generally speaking of course on the last point, but wouldn't you be peeved if someone judged you because of your race (for example) because of a single bad experience with another person. It comes down to the same core issue.
Communication I would say is a bigger problem. Especially in relationships. It isn't that we don't understand some non-verbal communication. If someone is crying or something I understand something big has happened.
@Rockynurse Since it seems that science is still at the beginning of its understanding of the matter,maybe they'll come up one day with a social non verbal behavior dictionary for people with this syndrome,since they have the capacity to learn,then they will probably adapt and develop that learning until it becomes automatic just like learning any skill.
You cannot learn emotions. The obvious ones can be learned to avoid major conflicts but microemotions are impossible to learn even for me. I am a highly functioning aspie.
Imagine if everyone was accommodated for everything. I am a cpa candidate that will work for a large firm after graduation. I know a kid majoring in accounting that allegedly has ADD.
@Rockynurse I'm not talking about emotion learning,but effective interpretation of certain body gestures,i have been trying to use lateral thinking for a while now,and if you apply it to the subject,it would help interpret or anticipate people's emotions,and even thinking sometimes just by adequately" observing " them.
@Rockynurse On top of my previous comment,i think that us supposedly the normal people,in this 21 century ,should be provided with updated informations about these syndromes at an early age,like at school or something,so that we'll be able to make life easier for everybody,its symply a part of evolving.It's the majority's responsability to make life easy for the minority,and not the other way round.
I have witnessed the failures of accommodating aspies and other deviations from the norm. accommodations are not realistic. I have asperger's syndrome but I was never allowed accommodations or treated differently. My parents just told me to deal with it.
I have now learned a way of behaving that allows people to perceive me as strange but not abnormal. Many aspies that are I knew that were accommodated now cannot keep a job or make friends.
@Rockynurse i believe in the principle that everyone was created equal,that means:one could excell in one field,and another one could be less effective in another,and if you balance the two ,it'll come up even,so to make life easier,and if you've noticed i had used this" make life easier " term,i haven't used the word accomodate not even once,in other words ,we just need to understand each other better,so that each one could benefit from the other.then everyone would be able to move forward.
@Rockynurse In the comment where i said i wasn't familiar with the syndrome,i meant the term "Asperger",but i was familiar with "Autism " in general at an early age
Let me tell you everyone is not equal. Some people have IQ's of 80 and no self control. When your parents told you that you could be anything they were very wrong. Ask any college professor, business executive or researcher and they will tell you some people will never progress above floor sweeping and shelf stocking.
@Rockynurse You are comparing people according to how much they are capable of climbing the corporate or academic ladder,the way i see it ,is that this life is only a test ,and the ultimate criteria for comparing people regardless of their ethnicity or background is their dedication to and faith in their creator,that is what leads them to earn credits through their good deeds,those same credits are what will allow them to pass the ultimate final test which will take place in the judgement day.
LOL There is evidence for my position. Your opinion is based off a believe in the supernatural. When is judgement day? Since you seem so convinced you must know when it is? Who is this creator I would love to meet a creator?
Good and evil are completely relative to time and place. So is religion if you had been born 700 years ago in norway you would have believe in thor and odin and fought to make it into Valhallah!
Wishes are meaningless. Hard work and rational thought can help one overcome anything and succeed in any field. This is of course assuming you meet at least the bare minimum IQ requirement. A person with down syndrome and an IQ of 80 could never be successful in a professional field.
He is allowed unlimited time for tests at my univ. Do you think it is reasonable to ask people to wait for their paychecks because he is too slow to process them by pay day?
Accommodations are pathetic. They hurt society and the people being accommodated.
@Rockynurse I'm a 44 year old person,who considers himself as having quite a general knowledge of things,and yet i haven't heard of that syndrome until last week when a friend of mine had recommended me to watch the "my name is khan" movie which partly deals with the issue,what i am trying to get to here is that there is a lack of awareness as far as issues like this one are concerned,and to make this awareness complete it has to start early ,at the school level for example.
Throw a wrench into the engine = to fuck something up. It's a bad thing. Of course mabye the engine itself is the bad thing and throwing a wrench in it is a good thing. Depends upon the engine. Or his personal beliefs as to whether what he described as the engine was good or bad, most likely he
Rubbish, Academia has always been flooded with eccentrics. It's a safe and structured and contained world; thus the perfect world for an Aspie with a focused interest.
@dublindee Not at all I think its confusing & can't consentrate on the class with all the distractions I get confused & lost just being around all those people & sitting down for long periods listening to a stranger speak. All I want to do is stay in my room or go outside where I want to go & can only drive places I know. Walking to the classes themselves is a problem for me because of the bodies swarming around & can't understand how clicks or classes operate same in high school & grade school.
This is currently elementry and middle school but I would really like to get them in a location where they can get help to be independant as soon as possible. Please please if you know of anything please text me back and i can give a email address and such for help. I am deparately looking for some help for them. thanks
I am wondering if any of you all know where i could get help for my children. i have two children dianosed imporperly. we live in New Mexico but am trying deparately to sell the house we are in. i am homeschooling all my children due to abuse and safety issues with the schools atleast until we can move. I am working on moving to washington and ask if there may be some support that can be made to move my family to a place that my better assist them.. it would be greatly appreciated in anything.
?How am I a pot calling the Kettle Black (I've heard that saying)---I don't laugh at people who are different but I will speak up when someone is cruel.
I don't mean you. The expression just means that it takes one to know one (the pot calls the kettle black when the pot is also black). I was referring to the notion of a humanities professor laughing at someone else for being weird.
The world judges you just need to learn how to deal with it. You just need to learn to ignore it and move on with your life. Everyone gets judged it isn't just aspies. People get judged for being fat, religious, gay, lazy, and foreign.
@Emilydogcat You sound Bipolar :)) I am just kidding--I feel people do the same thing to me very often if not always even possibly unconsciously. I am right with you...
@Emilydogcat Oh, but I'm not doing higher education; so, maybe I may not understand how you feel entirely... I don't look forward :((((((((((((((((((((((
I saw a thing on tv about aspergers and it sounds just like me. I have trouble communicating with people and I feel intimidated to look them in the eye. I don't know why. Sometimes I react the wrong way than how people want me to and they give me wierd looks. I understand sarcasm and jokes but I don't always get what to do when people give me direct instructions. I kind of lack common sense. I get made fun of alot for being an air head because I get distracted easily and don't always get things.
You sound very much like my boyfriend. He doesnt feel intiminated in most social situations, almost to his detriment. He often underreacts to people, and people are wierded out. He too understands sarcasm, but it is often not fully interpreted. What I really see is his lack of a certain self awareness. And he too is easily distracted, making his awareness even more difficult to recognize. Interesting food for thought
I have the same problem. I don't respond to some1 when I'm not sure how to react. Uncomfortable to stand(shifting around) in groups or "new" people and I'm very Introverted. Personally believed it was a confidence issue however my thoughts hit a wall to which i spend most of my time reflecting. Thinking about how to talk to some1 the next day.
I'd probably be considered an air head too. People who hate others because 'their head is in the sky' remind me of articles with messages such as: "If you love your children, beat them so they grow up to be down-to-earth". In fact there was a comment on this video further along the list that implied that sort of message. "Discipline your children so they grow up to be nice people" sounds better to me. And many eccentrics or non-functional people are decent human beings.
Notice that those sort of people (the ones who despise air heads) are usually the ones that frequently say: "I don't care" or "get over it" or "deal with it". It doesn't mean down-to-earth people themselves are those sort of haters though - certainly there's nothing wrong with being stable and easy-going.
Thanks this has been helpful information to me as a parent to search for an appropriate college for my daughter who was recently diagnosed with aspergers
because you intepret things differently and express your thoughts in a different way so it comes off as odd Aspies also tend to be more gullible thus prey for jokes.
i agree with snooki. i have AS. i am 16. very truthful. have some strong skills but some things i cant do good. i am proud of who i am an others should be proud for who they are aswell.
im an AS boy... I get that too its because we're smarter than neurotypical dopes who cant process language like us.... so we talk too effin fast...John Elder Robison is a good example of an aspie who totally conquered any speech or rhythm challenges hes extremely eloquent
We do speak far too quickly. In a particular class of mine, we must frequently pick controversial topics and do oral presentations on them. I pick the most complex thing because others are so boring and require so little thought then have the sole problem of not being able to get words out or speak slowly enough so the neurotypical students can comprehend what I manage to say. I am extremely proud of being an AS girl. If only my mother wasn't in denial.
@GemGems3 I tend to find that, many people don't understand things from others perspective's take me for example, most people think I am crazy, simply as I don't act in the "normal" way to others so you get branded, speechwise, people who cant think of anything better to say other than "Huh?" arnt realy worth the bother of talking to them, not in a crule way, just it becomes a tiresom bore explaining everything.
Strange. All the teachers at my school were absoloutely clueless, and i went to a high school that people went to after having difficulties at their other high school, be they mental, physical or social and while not all the teachers were allowed to look at each students file to know why they were, you think they would piece it together from observation and taking into account that it is a hospital school. :P
I often got in trouble for things that are a result of my Aspergers.
We Aspies need a rebellion against the rest of the world who's with me!!!

@tthheeffuunnyymmaann Yes, I do have AS as a matter of fact, and once my term in the ARMY is done I am heading back to school! Some instructors, profs, teachers, and other assorted folk in the world of academia can be quite cruel. Others can be quite understanding. It all depends on the person. Knowing I have AS makes it easier to deal, even though difficulties do remain.

So I never tell anyone.

@abyssquick I'm sorry that happened with your girlfriend. I don't think you should rule out telling anyone altogether. For years I never told anyone (diagnosed 13 years ago). There are always going to be intolerant people out there. Not everyone is like that though. I have been very careful about who I've told, and overall have been fortunate enough to have most be understanding.

Jesus... today everyone thinks that they are entitled to go to college. People with special needs are given help on their tests and work such as more time or a calculator. This makes sense through highschool but not for higher ed. College is not for everybody, if you need special help... you shouldn't be there in the first place. This is why just simply having an undergraduate degree is just about worthless these days. We need to make a fundamental change.

I have Asperger's and the only thing I hate about it is my sensitivity to sounds. Sometimes my parents would wish for a cure but if there was a cure and I consumed it, my bad symptoms would go away but what would happen to my good symptoms? My own world, my interests, etc. There is a myth that goes "If you can post a video on youtube, you're not autistic." My brother and I posted over 20 vids and we're autistic. I guess that makes us autistic mythbusters. I continue to disprove myths like those.

But there is a downside as well. Its very similar to how a a deaf person has trouble speaking because they have never heard words. But for aspies, we have trouble expressing or recognizing emotions or social cues because we are usually blind to body language. So subtle hint (continued

@Agonising You have to realize that pretty much all advancements with ausperger's has happened in the last 20 years or so. It wasn't even an accepted diagnosis until 1994 officially.

I'm not trying to be mean, I'm trying to point out the facts, you can't really blame them for not catching it early.

@Roguemember littlebigbrain and rockynurse do have a point. no two people are exactly alike. what you described was likely a severe case of asperger's. would you say that you are exactly the same as another person from your age group with no immediately distinctive qualities (such as asperger's, add, etc...).

I'd probably be considered an air head too. People who hate others because 'their head is in the sky' remind me of articles with messages such as: "If you love your children, beat them so they grow up to be down-to-earth". In fact there was a comment on this video further along the list that implied that sort of message. "Discipline your children so they grow up to be nice people" sounds better to me. And many eccentrics or non-functional people are decent human beings.

Notice that those sort of people (the ones who despise air heads) are usually the ones that frequently say: "I don't care" or "get over it" or "deal with it".
