According to the documentary, Sicko, a diagnosis of autism is likely to get you turned down for health insurance...There is a long list of pre-existing conditions that health insurance companies don't like, and autism is on the list.
They might just mean classic autism, & not my mild type...but not sure
A "formal" diagnosis that consists of a battery of different tests which result in official paperwork with a breakdown of your issues and whatnot..costs around $2,000 more-or-less, I am told...
The bandana and braids looked fun. You should wear your hair like that more often. (Maybe you do - I don't know. I haven't exactly seen many of your videos.)
Ok so you didn't do it on purpose. I didn't know what Asperger's was so I looked it up. A secondary characteristic is physical clumsiness.
I thought you knocked the camera over on pupose. It is ironic that it happened just after you mentioned your diagnosis. I meant no offense but I love irony and in this case I saw it where it wasn't.
I love your video's and you have a great voice. How about something of the Kinks off of "Schoolboys in Disgrace?"
are you pretending to talk like this is your normal way of talking in daily normal life? you have an interesting catchy way of singing. just curious..
I'm a formally diagnosed aspie. It's nothing to worry about or be afraid of. Your a very bright and very talented girl, probably more so because of AS. You've channeled your 'obsessions' into really beautiful music, music I can listen to again & again and never get bored.
The only thing I really worry about is that the specialist lady might have been wrong....or at least off.... I grew up with developmental, sensory, learning, and social difficulties that are often associated with the autistic spectrum...I frequently walk around on my toes with my hands curled up. I act and feel like a 33 year old little kid...i have over 5000 posts on Wrong Planet...(autism web community)....
but I still manage to have my doubts for some reason.
congrats on everything. I'm so happy to hear you didn't have to pay...I ended up paying but not the full price as they were going to charge me 2,000.00 too. I'm glad you finally got a diagnosis...
I am a recently diagnosed Aspie as well and welcome you to our community. Also, I am pleased that you are happy with your new fluke. It looks nice. Enjoyed the video...thanks. Gabba Gabba One of Us, One of us....
God! Poopy you are the most Adorable thing. I really like your videos.
