Never been diagnosed with it because I've never seen doctors much (about 4 times in my life - I'm healthy ).
I noticed as I grew up that my behaviour was weird - a can't communicate with people I don't know, I dislike things that most people like, I obsess about things and study them.
I think I have Asperger's + social anxiety (the two usually go together). I don't want to be diagnosed with it though, it'd just be something for the authorities to take advantage of - I heard about a couple with Asperger's who had their baby taken away because the social services prejudged them!
I generally dislike people interfering in my life and business so getting diagnosed with it and having it in my medical records would just be another millstone around my neck. It's not something which I can change, I know about it and it is there so I must live with it.
I personally cannot stand people who use disorders such as this to gain sympathy or more in some cases. I knew another guy with Asperger's before, he was always playing on it and using it as a weapon in arguments.
I don't think I've had it that bad, I just hate social situations and don't do well in them. I live in the suburbs so can go into the countryside to escape sometimes, but around here you meet other walkers - annoying!My sensory overload can get quite bad. Usually, it will start out alright, but as time passes and if the causes or pressures to my senses increase I get increasingly uneasy. The biggest concern is movement. If too many people move around me, I will freeze up, involuntarily. Usually this only lasts a few seconds, and I used to think this was normal for everybody. Then there's noise; this is probably the most distracting. Usually it is a problem only if the noise is sporadic, meaning there is no pattern to it. Certain sounds also bother me. Anything like a bass to a stereo, that has very strong vibrations that can be felt affect me, and I usually freeze up or get very angry(I mean very angry.) Then there is texture of certain foods. I can't eat ground beef, unless it's cooked a certain way, or I'll vomit involuntarily. I don't mind the taste, but I absolutely hate the texture of it. If many of these occur at once, I can either freeze up for minutes, or I'll have a meltdown where I isolate myself or pace with very methodological thought-processes, usually my special interest, to calm me.
I want to live somewhere quiet. Isolated houses cost too much so somewhere in a small village would be nice. I know of such villages in the Pennines where property is cheap too so I may move to one if I can.
In the suburbs there are too many neighbours, cars, lawnmowers and motorbikes going past all the time. It's too noisy, I just need peace and quiet somewhere without many people.
Yeah, same here. I hate being around too many people, especially ones I don't know.Finally, there are my problems with social interactions. This isn't quite that pronounced compared to the other two. Usually, as I said, I lose any reciprocation if I get involved with an interest. Other than that, I have some trouble with subtle sarcasm(if it's not inflected in the tone), and especially have trouble if people say things they don't mean, or hint with their body language. I have trouble if a social event is changed sporadically, and I can't persist in groups. Being in a group larger than 3 just makes me feel wrong. Overall, I don't empathize with too many people, with the exception of a select few. I've also been described as too blunt, over-analytical, and a party crasher.
My parents never took much notice I don't think. I'm smarter than everyone else in my family so get called the "brains of the family". I wish I had my brother's charisma though.All of these characteristics have been common since I was young, but since I had high grades, and my parents weren't really the type of parents to look at development stages and see if I correlated, it was overlooked until recently - a year ago. Mostly, my parents just thought it was my personality that caused these characteristics.
I had language delay as a kid, not too badly though. I also had dyslexia which I mostly grew out of (the only part left is bad short term memory). The ironic part about the dyslexia is that I was amongst the worst at literacy in primary school but when I left high school I was actually quite good at it.I saw a psychiatrist, after a particularly horrible meltdown; he diagnosed me with OCD and Social Anxiety Disorder. I believed the psychiatrist wasn't thorough, and at that point I chose to have another psychiatric evaluation with somebody more thorough. I was then diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome, and HFA(High Functioning Autism) was only left out because there was no evidence of language delay.
My grammar isn't amazing but I don't know what I'd do if I couldn't read and write, I'd have no access to information then.
Same here. I don't really like telling people though, it's embarrassing.I feel overwhelmed, sometimes I panic to go out to take a breath..
City life is not for me ,i m suffocating .I dream living a rural area close to nature,with plants, animals ,walking on grass barefoot ,swim in sea
May be I m allergic to modern life
