"Anyone else want to brain someone when they say this to you..." "Oh I understand perfectly. I just disagree vehemently with your point of view you moronic piece of shite". Is my usual thought when I see or hear that. | |||

"I have to say that quite often to people who are ignorant to Autism, believe me it is justified. As someone with Aspergers I can empathise with that." People always relate my boys to Raymond Babbit from Rain Man, they don't get the fact it's a broad spectrum and no two Autists are the same, even my twin boys. | |||

Yep, I usually get utter disbelief if I tell anyone in real life as I can mask it and 'pass' for NT in public. If I try to explain how it affects me I get 'oh, everyone feels like that sometimes'. I never get as far as 'no, you don't understand'. I give up and feel dismissed and small. | |||

My lads are very severe, so it's easy to recognise, but it's not as easy with Aspergers, because it needs explaining to people, so they don't just think it's a child having a tantrum. Were you diagnosed as a child or adult? | |||

(Hope that makes sense, I'm not trying to be rude.) Don't let them make you feel bad. | |||

I can forgive myself for not 'doing life' very well, but I've also had to accept that I'll never 'get better'. Pre diagnosis there was always the hope that I'd figure out how to be normal and now I know I never will. I don't want to change who I am, I'm quite fond of me, but it would be nice to be free of the complications having aspergers brings. | |||

That was quite hard to read, hope you're ok, it's the concept of normal that seems to be the problem, my boys have no such concepts, they just exist as they are without comparison, but with Aspergers there is always the feeling of being " different", and that seems to cause a lot of upset, I worked in a EBD unit in a comprehensive school, and I picked this up from Aspergers pupils there. | |||

"I rarely want to brain anyone, unless it involves doing so via the medium of vigorous sex. No, I try and get to a point where I understand what they are trying to convey even if that is that they don't want me to understand. " | |||
