This website is really neat because it gives you a straight up real life encounter with a teenager who was daignosed asperger's and is trying to convince the world that she's normal. It's very touching and emotional, it's also kinda sad. It gives parents an insight to how a teenager with very very high functioning asperger's thinks and deals with her feelings. Also vote for the poll, it makes her happy.

:smile: Nice site! Good luck on your re-diagnosis. I didn't think you had AS, because you like playing sports. I totally suck at every sport except dancing. But i appreciate that you understand what AS is and that you can look at the bright side of it. Most teenagers won't take time to know what it is; they conclude that all aspies are mental messups.
"Oh, that's why you have no friends, silly fool."
"You are in your own world."
"Is that why you are interested in weird stuff?"
"You're crazy and stupid!"
"Arse-burger. Does that mean you *******?"
"Arse-burger. Does that mean you *******?"

neuro made my signature too! :grin:
I checked out that website, it fits my situation as a child and as an adult, more as an adult. Its my frustration at not being recognised as Aspie as I appear so normal, with auditory processing issues, mood swings, kind of absent seizures, sleep problems, obessessional thoughts and analysis. I can see what the problem is and I can sympathise. Its like you diagnosed as a kid you are told you can't do this, you never be do this - therefore you live up to the syptoms. As an adult I couldn't be aspie because I would not have been able to do this or that, but I am aspie and I did do that and that because I appeared normal, because I am 'normal' I just have a different brain. Its all so frustrating. I said again and again, why they try and treat my comorbids as mental illnesses primary they do not deal with sensory issues and auditory processing or my mood swings or dietary/pms needs. Its all madness, there is so much misunderstanding outthere, I blame Rainman and the press.
I know that this is necro-posting but I like your website. You're an interesting person.
