I'm sorry you had to go through that in your life. I to was made fun of, called wierd, but I also came from a father that taught me to fight and so when I felt threatened, I would become the bully (mostly around age 10-11). I had severe social issues and was suicidal 15-25. One way I learned to "belong" was getting into drugs and alcohol. It calmed my anxiety and I could actually socialize. Especially with the drug Ecstasy. That was my self medication. Now meditation & exercise help. Take care.

You should do a movie on Asberger syndrom something that will touch the world and to appreciate what you have.

I have Asperger's disorder and can relate to having trouble getting state services and having to get my driving skills evaluated by an ocupational therapist before getting my driver's license. I deffinately use to get bullied and not be able to tell nonverbal cues very well. Asperger's disorder is also on the Nov-verbal Learning Disorder spectrum and I went to a boarding school in East Haddam Connecticut USA which is a college prep school called Franklin Academy I'll talk more about it later.

this is my fav second video from thunder. I respect it and its just something we all have to keep up with. But if lkucky it may go away but that will allways remain there its not like something will go away because ones its in our brain it remains there. Unless taking seriouse medication for it. But then again thats taking medication to stop getting this to happen to you. When you stop taking it it will come back so that will allways be there on me and to everyone who has this. Its not easy.

i used to get bullyed till one day i started bringing my rubik's cube and solving it in front of everyone, they all thought i was a retard, then they stopped calling me names. and for some reason i can remember all the way back to when i was about 2½ - 3 years old (not just specific instances), i can also remember like 90% of the lines from a movie in exact order they were said and i dont forget them, idk why but they just pop into my head, and i dont try to remember them either

Hey, By the way i like the videos you're posting. Well i'm not actually sure i have Asperger's syndrome, but i do certainly posess a few of the symptoms, for example i have obsessions one of which is my obsession with remembering people's dates of birth, i can recall a very high number of peoples birthdays and people find me extremely weird at school but i spose thats how i am.... weird.

I understand what your talking about. My experience was painful though not as bad as it could have been. I was home schooled so I manged to evade the brunt of bullying but I took hits in Church. My youth group was cruel when they were not ignoring me. "Retard, doofus, clown" it all still rings in my head to this day. I started somewhat out going but just a bit shy to totally withdrawn in one year. I still live with crippling fear of rejection. Nearly 19 now and was 8 when I moved.

I think a creative job would suit you much better.

I just watched your videos on Asperger's. I look forward to more...as someone who is possibly Aspie. I've been diagnosed as Inattentive ADD/BPD/OCD. I just wanted to say, you have a very soothing voice. I loved hearing what you had to say, but your voice was so relaxing, I nearly felt asleep. That's a good thing, though. :D
