Asperger Syndrome is a neurobiological disorder on the higher-functioning end of the autism spectrum. An individual's symptoms can range from mild to severe.
Their IQ's are typically in the normal to very superior range. They are usually educated in the mainstream, but most require special education services.
Because of their naivete, those with AS are often viewed by their peers as "odd" and are frequently a target for bullying and teasing.
I've been thinking I may have a mild case of Asperger. I have a problem connecting with people.I only look people in the eye if it's a one on one or interview situation, and only because I'm consciously thinking about doing such. I sometimes get panicky with too many loud noises (especially with voices). When I was a child, my mom said I would be content doing the same thing over and over. And now you say that not liking groups of people might be a symptom? Nail on head. Or social anxiety. lol
People think I'm crazy, I say "yes I'm crazy!". I rejoice, "stupid" sometimes is me saying "good, because my intellect is not the same". I'm antidisintellectual, and that does NOT involve "antidisestablishmentarianism", or Big Bang, nor is it atheist, but history, disobedience/rebellion, making my presence felt, I have Asperger's and I'm told I was very intelligent, and also wise.
Autism isn't a certain way, it's not even stupid, it's just very very weird. Supernatural ability goes over people's heads, it ain't autism, you're just very very weird!
I completly understand your feelings for me its easier to just leave people alone as sad as it sounds because I usually misread everything and make myself sick emotionally over it for weeks afterward.
this is absolutely amazing..i've had these problems , and more, my whole life..i have no idea what's wrong with me.. i also suffer from partial seizures quite often. i get overloaded easily. i dont sleep/dream well.. i'm seeing a neuro in april for my seizures to try and figure them out and get to the problem..but all these things you mentioned here...IS ME...?
Hate the way people group together like sheep, I prefer My own company.
I am really good at remembering numbers, Passwords (Really long ones) and just great at remembering stuff in general.
I generally obsess over Physical Security and mechanical locking devices.
I prefer a book to Movies,Old Cartoons and Animations to modern crap and play Retro Games Consoles to Modern ones,Something Challenging like a logic based game.
(Continued) All in all, I enjoy having Aspergers, OCD, a lightened form of depression, and no friends that have my back 24/7 because when I die, I'll die knowing that the world is better off without somebody trying to spread common sense throughout everyday struggles.
I hate teenagers, religion (specifically Christianity), modern day education (not education's roots), and humanity as a whole, because we're fucked, basically.
I am 13 y old, and was diagnosed with Aspergers and have gone through depression, and I don't know about any other people, but I matured both emotionally and mentally rapidly when I went through it at 12. Being depressed, or having a form of Autism where you can function properly 100% by yourself is like being held over the edge of a cliffside looking towards humanity and it's endeavors.
I must have Aspergers... I can sit in my room for practically days, and be perfectly fine with whatever I decide to do.... I don't need people to have fun. lol
Most of the symptoms you just described apply to me. Although I believe that this Asperger's thing is just another label that can be used by losers like us to make us feel better about our sorry asses. Is it really worth to disguise my problems by identifying with a syndrom to make myself feel special and to impress some poorly educated average fucks who will thus think I'm another fucking rainman? your brother looks cool btw.
@guzsaj If most of the symptoms to a broken leg apply to you, would you ignore that too on the grounds that the lable "broken leg" is only made up to pity people who walk slow?
I am oblivious to the outside world aswell (most of the time ^^), but I believe that is due to the fact that I play on video games a lot. People find me weird, geeky and perhaps a little crazy, but I'm not that bothered. I like things a twelve year old girl should find babyish and strange, but I still like them. I don't care what people think of me and I'm proud of it :D
i got a 28 put i have A severe case of Borderline Personality Diorder, as well as Disassociate Identity disorder, My IQ is 187, and because of oddness in social situations I tested. Nope don't have AS i'm just crazy
I get that "oh poor you, you need to meet people" speech all the time from bleeding heart NTs who usualy never hear from me again after making that statement. I'm often told "But everyone needs friends". People refused to believe I am an auromatic asexual, and I wonder if a lot of people think I am just a closet lesbian.
I think your videos are great.I love the way you express yourself and the lilt of your accent.I am 61 and was diagnosed with Asperger's when I was 54.You must continue your fine efforts.All power to you my friend.Great work.
wow, except for a few things youre like explaining all my thoughts to me :0 I am 15 right now and I was diagnosed when I was 3 and since then the psychologists dont even know for sure if i got PDDnos or asperger but after seeing this im sure I got aspergers.
I lost all my friends when i hit puberty, and i havn't been able to get any since. I'm slower than others at cooking/writing/reading and when i do schoolwork i'm much slower than the others. I'm physically clumsy. My heart beats fast. When people tell me to do something i won't understand it as at all, though other people easily understands it. It feels like i have a different personality in me that i can't use when i'm suposed to be using it. Any idea what this may be? :(
when i heart of Aspergers, i thought maybe i have that too, later when i heart more of it, i thought, no i think i don't have Asperger, and now after a few things i heart from you, damn i shocked.......i have the same things, with people, groups of people, always alone, can't stand sunlight to much, i like the dark more, i feel better when it's dark outside, more relaxed and more things you say, my god.
I got a 26 but one of the things that stood out to me was the difficulty with noise. I cannot stand to try and do one thing if there is noise in the other room. I get furious when the TV is on and I am trying to think in the other room and the kids are noisy, I just cannot operate. I don't know if this is normal, but I have always been that way. I can only handle noise from 1 direction at a time. I have to focus on one noise. I have always been a little "out there" and I am wondering do I hve it
also i took that test a while ago i got like a 40 something so yeah. pretty sure i have it. makes sense honestly, i've always wondered why i was so weird, and why nobody seems to see things the same way i do, and why things seem perfectly moral to me seem dickish to others.
I got a 36 and I'm 13, get bullied, don't understand why many things have to be done. I am too scared to say anything though in case my parents don't believe me.
I was informally diagnosed by a psychologist / therapist / wahtever he was with Asperger's 3 or 4 years ago, and at first (not knowing anything about the disease) dismissed the information, but as with all of us - I filed the information away, and over time and much... reluctant research into the disease, I simply cannot find any of it I do not identify with in a shockingly mirrored manner.
I think it must be a gift....all of us deal with really tough things in our life....but you see everything in such an awesome way!! Whatever it is..you are using a part a your brain the most of us aren't. Many famous doctors and scientists have aspegers...probably because they don't follow what eveyone else is doing and they become great....brilliant!!
I have aspergers and ADHD and I'm obsessed with unique objects as well and chemistry and the science behind toys that have chemical related effects;) infact I like watching videos on how these things are made and I will remake a replica of that:)
you're awesome! i don't know if i have aspergers but i related to most of the things you said. especially about being different. I've never been able to wrap my mind around why people all want to be the same.
I just need to say that there is a great deal of variation among people with aspergers. Aspies definitely don't come from the same mold. Aspies differ among each other in both strengths and weaknesses and how they cope with them. One of the interesting commonalities among ASD people is a much higher than normal local system of perception as opposed to global which is common in NT individuals. IIRC 52% of ASD population is local compared to 2% of NT. This is seeing the trees and not the forest.
i agreeee people who hate weird people are VERY BORING AND SERIOUS, and they don't know how fun it is to be wierd... anyone who comments negatively on this is one of those boring serious people.
I didn't know about the bags under eyes thing. I've always had that and now I wonder if this might have something to do with it. For the record I was diagnosed as being on the border, so if I do have it it's fairly mild.
ive never been offically told i have aspergers but seeing videos makes me feel like omg thats me! ive been told i speak monotone i go on and on. sometimes when people talk to me i completely go blank like they are speaking a foreign language. i repeat myself often and people ask me whats wrong with me all the time. anyways i like the video b/c of the smilie face hehe
Sometimes my hearing bother's me to the point of hurting. Suddenly normal sounds (usually people talking, tho) just start to reverberate in my ear drums, so hard, it hurts. Just these really intense vibes start going through them. Like I said tho, usually with people's voices..oh, and I got 23 on the test. Somebody tell me what that means..?
I have asperger but i got 28 on that score :D I have changed alot though and i have friends now witch i didn't have so i guess it is possible even for people with apsergers to get a normal life or allmost normal...
My aunt works with kids who have Aspergers. She thinks I have it. My dad begs to differ and my mom agrees with my aunt. I'll just ask to see a Physiologist. They scare me though.
I appreciate your video. My son has aspergers. He does not fit in the category of having some "genius" except that he has a spiritual perception that others do not have. He sees things black and white and can't understand others that don't think like him. I see a lot of him in what you describe about yourself. He's a loner, yet I believe he does need a friend. He has no friends other than some he has met online which is less threatening. He goes around saying "sick stubborn stupid people".
Interesting about you and locking doors. I am completely the opposite, I keep all my doors open and love (trying at least) talking with people...even though they hate it:P I find people fascinating does anyone else here? I also really like sunlight tehe :)
I like ur video, but it is important for people to know that this is only one example of asberger's. If you don't have all of the symptoms you may have it, and visa vera.
Varför har inte jag något väldigt speciellt som jag är bra på? Känns som att verkligen alla med AS utom jag är expert inom något område eller har ett specialintresse. :<
I övrigt känner jag igen mig i princip allt annat.
I know exactly how your brother felt upon discovering he had AS. When I first even read about AS I literally started crying because I suddenly no longer felt so much like an outsider or freak. Thank you for this video, sir.
My mom and me watched this and she was as shocked as I was how much it sounded like me. My mom always said that i had something like Aspergers and I just took that test. I got a 41, so I'm happy to find this. And weird people are awesome!
thank you for posting this and your other videos (haven't watched all of them yet) I have been doing some reading on Aspergers because I suspect that I have it (I'm looking into getting tested) and your videos have been a great help in understanding aspergers a but more, and also made me reflect on my self a little more understanding why I am the way I am. At this point I would be surprised if I didn't have it XD
@The2ndL I don't really think I have AS. Maybe when I was a kid probably I would have scored more than 32, because I used to suck at socializing. Now I am more socially capable, but still can't avoid some awkward moments and somewhat shy when it comes to new people, specially the opposite sex. :-\
@j4allen You might want to look up "alexythmia" - it's when a person can't consciously identify what emotion they are feeling. Apparently people who have this some times think they are feeling sick when they are actually sexually aroused. I could be way off base, but might be worth looking into.
- I have Asperger's too but I'm not going into the details as I could easilly hit the limit of letters, posts and traffic of YouTube talking about it.
I would like to point you to someone which fascinated me: a lady called "Temple Grandin". She is autistic too & speaks a lot of sense!
Just read my profile on YouTube and you might get an insight what is in my mind.
A good friend of mine said "People like you are the next generation of human" and I wouldn't disagree.
@warmsteel How did you ever find a psychologist who gave you a diagnosis despite all of that? :S Normally they can't even agree to an aspie having more than one friend.
I realized I related to so much of what you said, and I almost started to wonder if I had Asperger's, too. Then it occurred to me that a lot of what you talk about are simply the coping mechanisms of being someone who is different and weird. To anyone who relates, please do actually take the screening test before jumping to conclusions. Not all of us weirdos are Aspies. :-)
What you described matched me perfectly, although i dont mind making friends as ive learned what to say and what not to say to deal with social interaction but i still cannot understand sarcasm, i always take it literally. For a very long time (3-4 years) ive thought i had aspergers, but ive been to afraid if i get it checked people will tell me im not because the thought that i find life this difficult for no reason is aweful and appalling but i really enjoyed your video!!!
Yeah I agree with everything you said. I am an individual who doesn't like the things normal people like, such as gossiping about, and making fun of others. I don't enjoy making other people feel bad at work/school simply because I don't like them (I can dislike someone quietly) or even because I want to make myself feel better. I don't really understand eye contact - if there's not enough of it people aren't happy, if there's too much it's wrong also. People tell me AS doesn't exist, though....
(..) over thinking and not sleeping too much because I have this puzzle solving inside all the time. I feel the outer world as something dreadful boring specially in what concern to people because I already know their ideas, and sentences etc. so it is always predictable once they follow that learned pattern of social behavior that kills all the possible manifestations of individuality. We are not all the same but I believe that I can understand your very point in this so Thank you for the video
I am very good in spotting people’s emotions by their eyes, but most of the times I cannot feel the same, nor even understand why are they feeling that way. I am also a privat person. Most of the times, I just don't feel things like caring for babies, or shake hands, give hugs and kisses to other people or say “thank you” or “take care”. I do not behave as it is supposed to, and I never did, since I was a child. I am always also with this tired face because it happens to me to be (...)
I have been thinking about the similarities of Asperger syndrome and INTJ personality type in MBTI. I am a female INTJ and I am truly curious in understanding the way people with aspergers see and feel the world, because I just feel some things right in the same way that you do. The main difference is that I can feel empathy, it is really low in me comparing with the most of other neurotipical individuals, but I do feel it, or at least understand what the other are feeling or thinking.
Basically if you get 16 or even worse below you're a boring conformist fuck. I'd rather be 'wierd' than 'too normal'.
Think of all the people and their incalculable input to the world who have/ have speculation surrounding them that they have/ had it: Albert Einstein, Issac Newton, Thomas Edison, Jane Austin, Stanley Kubrick, Woody Allen, Bill Gates, Bob Dylan, Syd Barrett, Thom Yorke... makes me feel more comfortable with the concept of having it myself (but some things are best unknown).
I think you are beautiful person for sharing ur story and it gives me hope for my family and children for awareness and understanding. PPL brand my son at school this is how he was born! An individual I say. He was not born in need of a social stature instead just with ppl who surround him with unconditional open arms Thank you so much I know it is so personal for you as for I. Much love please feel free to contact anytime
You make ppl understand that we still have feelings just can not express them easily like others. I can not stand wet feet I too hate sunlight my children and i have no problems with language or motor skills just socail interaction i hate noise and crowds or more than one person i can not write with anyone bothering me whatsoever or i have to crumble the paper and throw it away not one thing can be out of sort routine is critical for ppl with AS. Persons with AS want to be invisible
i want you to know that your difference/ notice i did not say disorder is a blessing. I am an Aspie and so is my son Jeffrey 6yrs old. I have also a daughter 1yr old. Both my children have AS and exhibit sib (self injourous behaviors like head banging punching slapping in the face. when i was younger my repetative behavior was eyelash pulling (involuntary) I am a single parent and although my children and I are totally misunderstood by society and my more"normal" family members i can relate
A few weeks ago i commented on one of your videos saying how much you made me laugh and then managed to make it sound insulting by implying that you didn't know you were being funny. From personal experience i know that i sometimes will make people laugh and then kind of wonder how i was being funny when i just thought i was being serious or reacting normally. I hope that by saying this you can understand that i wasn't meaning to sound insulting.
I absolutely LOVE watching your videos... I'm Neurotypical.. does that make me weird? But in all seriousness, I am NT and I DO love your videos.. very educational and what i feel to be an accurate portrayal of AS (not that I would know cause I'm not AS).
I've had a lot of asperger's traits throughout my life, however I feel that I've really figured out ways around some of the difficulties. I was diagnosed however with sensory integration disorder. I also have a desire to connect with a lot of people but definitely struggle sometimes in groups. When younger, I was bullied and had few friends, but now I have a lot of friends who I am close to who I relate to on a meaningful non-superficial level I also feel I've learned how to interact properly.
I scored a 31 on the test and I've suspected for a while that I may have Aspergers. My bf has it and there are a lot of similarities between the way he acts and the way I act, particularly in social situations. I'm more socially competent than I was when I was younger as I think I've learned some coping strategies, but none of it ever came easily to me.
I work with people who should be experts in this area, and not a single one has openly said anything about my "weirdness". Kinda sad but funny at the same time, but they wouldn't know "autism" if it bit them in the ass!
Ive been with my husband for 8 years. All 8 years have been great, but also hard. I often feel he is annoying and dont understand why he does the things he does. He gets annoyed with himself because he can not understand why he thinks the way he does. Things that are natural to me, common sense, he has none of. We found these videos by chance last night. He and I are convinced he has it. Our 4 year old has already been dxed pervasive developmental delay.
@twinsmummy20 I know how you feel my husband also has it make him have a hobbie take classes that he likes makes his mind busy.Let him know that he needs.They dont like crowds dont like yelling and screaming.Cause it can cause meltdown.watching these videos can help and your husband can relate to them.Writing letter to eachother does help also that the easy way to communicate better.Cause when they talk about it and fell like they are not heard.
And here was another test, it had A LOT more questions....
Your Aspie score: 93 of 200
Your neurotypical (non-autistic) score: 120 of 200
You seem to have both Aspie and neurotypical traits
So how the fuck would they diagnose someone with that?
I also feel pretty aloof most of the times. I'm shy of being too eccentric as I don't want a lot of attention on me and don't wanna seem full of it, but I always feel like I have pretty "out there",imaginary land views. aha. mAB im just weird or bla:p
"normal" ppl are said to get 15-17. i got 24... full aspergers is said to be 35.... okay??? i think half the time i don't like ppl and half the time im interested in ppl... odd.. always felt differnt, ppl call me weird, and the only reason i dress normal is bc my grandparents would not like if i didnt.... WTF
@littleflowwer I know how you feel my husband 34 and in his mind he feels like he 45 50 cause he cant relate to people his age and doesnt know why he always stay to himself he likes it that way he dont like crowds or people cause hate bullies and drama.He feels like a robots at times
i just took the test and got 50 most the people on here only get 30-40 this makes me fell like im even wierder than i thought i was before i dont know who to talk to
@TheTammy010 It's not a weirdness test. :P It's a personality test. Meant to show you what kind of personality you have. You happen to have a fairly Asperger's Syndrome like personality, just like a lot of other people. Like me. Ask a psychologist if you want to know more. :)
@InjuredMinds hey.. :) im 13 and i have aspergers and im proud of it. i aswell as im sure many others are happy that some people actually care about this syndrome. almost only when you hear it is around when someone murders someone or something like that. please feel free to contact me via youtube etc as you seem like a nice person :). and warmsteel that feels sort of complicated. you might have a easier aspergers as there are many kinds.
@relilimex1 Silly americans having "lunch money". x.x Still, if anyone stole money from me in school I'd threathen the school officials that I'll report them to the police unless they do something. Schools don't like headline news. Ergo, I win.
I took the test and got a 41. I guess so because I just got a job as a cashier and all the noise is making me so agitated. Plus I feel so strange having to say hi and greet all the customers.
I was thinking it must be pretty lonely and painful for your mom if she's the only one without asperger's in the family. When you can't get empathy from anyone you're close to it is very painful.
I scored 28 on the test I'm not sure what that means should I take it again? Or see a doctor because maybe I have something different because I've always felt different & am very slow when it comes to alot of things can't explain things that well & relate alot to these videos & other videos on this syndrome like the documentary & this one movie adam which introduced me to the condition. Used to be diagnosed with bi-polar disorder, adhd, & like being alone alot except get I get very lonely alot.
Yes we tend to over think, analyze things, and distractions are annoying, the distractions can be personally individual identities, but all of us are annoyed with distractions, light is common one, but not everyone. And only an aussie would over extend a Utube allowance on time, because we need a lot of time to say ,(what we fell is important) what we are trying to get out as a message, Where Non aussies can use a sentence in conversation we use a ten page boolket of time for our message.
I wanted to add I do hug others but it is fake a lot ot time it some I think I have to do and we some is talking to me about some thing they like or did I act as if I care but really dont LOL I juat wait for them to get done for me to talk about what I want to talk about I dont know it that is about for ASPERGERS
I took the test and I have a 35 but I don't understand when I was younger I was in play and I loved it I have a little girl with autism she is 2year and that is why I am doing looking up thing on on autism and also I found that I might have it and WOW think I do I thought that I just have ADD I am 30 years and and when I came to think about life was hard for me grown up but I came you just learn how to get along I dont get it when I was young I went to night club but I had to go out side alot

the reason people with aspergers like myself are hypersensitive to things like light is due to our differently wired brains lacking a part that filters out light so when i smoke weed it makes it even worse and half to wear fucking sunglasses to play video games or internet
Thank you so much, for both the video and the link. I scored a 33...It all makes sense to me now--I NEVER KNEW!!! So many characteristics, such as : hating to be touched, and constantly being told how I should say things with more..."tact", if you will. I feel a lot better about questions I had about myself for a long time.
I have always felt different. I've always had problems with eye contact and other social situations as well as an obsession with history (dates, names of eras, periods, epochs ect.). After learning about aspergers, I checked out the A.Q test and scored 36. I will see a doctor and if I do have it, then that will explain alot of feelings I have.
Heyyy very helpful videos... After much reasearch and speaking to professionals about the quirky things he does.. I came to the realization that my brother has Aspergers and is 30 years old, yet has never went to a doctor to get a diagnosis. In fact, he has no idea he has Aspergers. How would you recommend trying to get through to someone who is in total denial that they need professional help?
@krstcmjns If you got diabetes would you go to a doctor and ask for advice or would you be too embarrassed? x.x It's not like AS is some kind of STD. Even if it were, it's still nothing to be ashamed about. You've got terribly confusing logic.
@krstcmjns That's not a good reason to not accept a fact, if your family were religious and you were homosexual then you're telling me you'd rather stop being homosexual than be who you are?
I keep making analogies but I don't really have to. Having Asperger's isn't a description for who you are, it's just an aid of understanding a person's methods. And if your own family dislikes you for that, hell if your family abuses you in general then I say... stop talking to them. They're douches.

I am oblivious to the outside world aswell (most of the time ^^), but I believe that is due to the fact that I play on video games a lot. People find me weird, geeky and perhaps a little crazy, but I'm not that bothered. I like things a twelve year old girl should find babyish and strange, but I still like them. I don't care what people think of me and I'm proud of it :D

I get that "oh poor you, you need to meet people" speech all the time from bleeding heart NTs who usualy never hear from me again after making that statement. I'm often told "But everyone needs friends". People refused to believe I am an auromatic asexual, and I wonder if a lot of people think I am just a closet lesbian.

I lost all my friends when i hit puberty, and i havn't been able to get any since. I'm slower than others at cooking/writing/reading and when i do schoolwork i'm much slower than the others. I'm physically clumsy. My heart beats fast. When people tell me to do something i won't understand it as at all, though other people easily understands it. It feels like i have a different personality in me that i can't use when i'm suposed to be using it. Any idea what this may be? :(

I got a 26 but one of the things that stood out to me was the difficulty with noise. I cannot stand to try and do one thing if there is noise in the other room. I get furious when the TV is on and I am trying to think in the other room and the kids are noisy, I just cannot operate. I don't know if this is normal, but I have always been that way. I can only handle noise from 1 direction at a time. I have to focus on one noise. I have always been a little "out there" and I am wondering do I hve it

I was informally diagnosed by a psychologist / therapist / wahtever he was with Asperger's 3 or 4 years ago, and at first (not knowing anything about the disease) dismissed the information, but as with all of us - I filed the information away, and over time and much... reluctant research into the disease, I simply cannot find any of it I do not identify with in a shockingly mirrored manner.

I just need to say that there is a great deal of variation among people with aspergers. Aspies definitely don't come from the same mold. Aspies differ among each other in both strengths and weaknesses and how they cope with them. One of the interesting commonalities among ASD people is a much higher than normal local system of perception as opposed to global which is common in NT individuals. IIRC 52% of ASD population is local compared to 2% of NT. This is seeing the trees and not the forest.

I appreciate your video. My son has aspergers. He does not fit in the category of having some "genius" except that he has a spiritual perception that others do not have. He sees things black and white and can't understand others that don't think like him. I see a lot of him in what you describe about yourself. He's a loner, yet I believe he does need a friend. He has no friends other than some he has met online which is less threatening. He goes around saying "sick stubborn stupid people".

At this point I would be surprised if I didn't have it XD

@The2ndL I don't really think I have AS. Maybe when I was a kid probably I would have scored more than 32, because I used to suck at socializing. Now I am more socially capable, but still can't avoid some awkward moments and somewhat shy when it comes to new people, specially the opposite sex. :-\

@j4allen You might want to look up "alexythmia" - it's when a person can't consciously identify what emotion they are feeling. Apparently people who have this some times think they are feeling sick when they are actually sexually aroused. I could be way off base, but might be worth looking into.

I do not behave as it is supposed to, and I never did, since I was a child. I am always also with this tired face because it happens to me to be (...)

I have been thinking about the similarities of Asperger syndrome and INTJ personality type in MBTI. I am a female INTJ and I am truly curious in understanding the way people with aspergers see and feel the world, because I just feel some things right in the same way that you do. The main difference is that I can feel empathy, it is really low in me comparing with the most of other neurotipical individuals, but I do feel it, or at least understand what the other are feeling or thinking.

Basically if you get 16 or even worse below you're a boring conformist fuck. I'd rather be 'wierd' than 'too normal'.
Think of all the people and their incalculable input to the world who have/ have speculation surrounding them that they have/ had it: Albert Einstein, Issac Newton, Thomas Edison, Jane Austin, Stanley Kubrick, Woody Allen, Bill Gates, Bob Dylan, Syd Barrett, Thom Yorke... makes me feel more comfortable with the concept of having it myself (but some things are best unknown).

You seem to have both Aspie and neurotypical traits
So how the fuck would they diagnose someone with that?

the reason people with aspergers like myself are hypersensitive to things like light is due to our differently wired brains lacking a part that filters out light so when i smoke weed it makes it even worse and half to wear fucking sunglasses to play video games or internet

I've already been diagnosed with aspergers by a professional but thought I'd take the test anyway and I got 44!

Thank you so much, for both the video and the link. I scored a 33...It all makes sense to me now--I NEVER KNEW!!! So many characteristics, such as : hating to be touched, and constantly being told how I should say things with more..."tact", if you will. I feel a lot better about questions I had about myself for a long time.

I have always felt different. I've always had problems with eye contact and other social situations as well as an obsession with history (dates, names of eras, periods, epochs ect.). After learning about aspergers, I checked out the A.Q test and scored 36. I will see a doctor and if I do have it, then that will explain alot of feelings I have.

Heyyy very helpful videos... After much reasearch and speaking to professionals about the quirky things he does.. I came to the realization that my brother has Aspergers and is 30 years old, yet has never went to a doctor to get a diagnosis. In fact, he has no idea he has Aspergers. How would you recommend trying to get through to someone who is in total denial that they need professional help?

@krstcmjns If you got diabetes would you go to a doctor and ask for advice or would you be too embarrassed? x.x It's not like AS is some kind of STD. Even if it were, it's still nothing to be ashamed about. You've got terribly confusing logic.

@krstcmjns That's not a good reason to not accept a fact, if your family were religious and you were homosexual then you're telling me you'd rather stop being homosexual than be who you are?
I keep making analogies but I don't really have to. Having Asperger's isn't a description for who you are, it's just an aid of understanding a person's methods. And if your own family dislikes you for that, hell if your family abuses you in general then I say... stop talking to them. They're douches.
