Autism

[CorniFan]

I wonder who else on this forum has autism like I do.

 

I mentioned in my profile all about my autism and how it effects my brain too.

 

I don't mean to scare people off by it....but for now, having my profile explain it comfort's me.

 

I cried a lot over things I don't quite know how to control due to the autism tonight too :(

 

I may also join some autism support forum sometime soon too. I want to meet others like me and maybe support them also with what i've learned from being mentally disabled myself....

Both myself and my younger sister have Asperger's. I also have Tourette's, OCD and ADHD, which were daignosed when i was 6. My mom suspected i was on the spectrum, but I wasn't daignosed until i was 18. I too have cried over lack of control in my life. I think we all (not just autists) struggle with that. And don't think of autism as a disability, we're just wired a bit differently. I consider myself differently abled, not disabled.

I thought you might. Whenever I meet someone who considers themselves disabled, I throw that line out there. It tends to change their mind.

Hmmmm...

I edited my profile to less dramatize my autism.

 

I was sorta having a hard night last night anyways. o.O;;;

 

The posts in the thread are refreshing reads

 

EDIT: Thanks everyone.

I have autism as well.

Even if you have autism, that doesn't mean you're not normal..so never get depressed over it

I have Asperger, I lived a bad childhood for this.

My crush on Korrina has been a helpful tool for my autism.

I used to be extremely mentally unwell before getting into her. I rather not get into the details :( But she makes this world feel happier for me now :)

Who is Korrina?

She is the 3rd Kalos gym leader.

Oh ok, I knew only her italian name, Ornella.

You wouldn't be able to tell much just from my profile, but I have autism as well. Was diagnosed when I was 3. Sure, I've had a fit or two in the past, but those are behind me now.
