yeah i got asperger's disorder. was wondering how many have it as well here how do you cope any secrets and tips to share
Was diagnosed this year. bIG tip, is get tested for sensory processory disorder, a lot of my aspie "ticks" are caused by this. and a big tip, is just dont expect everyone to get you, or understand where You are coming from. Aspies think differently than most people. It is how our brains are wired. I dont have much tips, bc I struggle everyday, making small talk, and other silly things.
I hope it doesn't shit on your disability that I say I might as well have it... I have major communication problems with regular people. I'm fine with politeness and manners and such, but as Girl said...Small talk is an awkward bitch. I'm lucky to have had friends throughout high school that I gradually grew to make good friend with their friends...but if it were not for that...I would be completely alone at the issue of not being able to communicate well enough to befriend people. I even have trouble amongst my group of friends, but they are very accepting regardless. But then again, I have my glorious moments of social ability. I would say it's a pretty bad situation for me, and that it is something that may never change, because for the most part I blame others for being shallow...and like Psychedelic girl said....not being understanding.
yeah.. what they all said. i haven't been diagnosed but i have all the signs and symptoms. i do mimic and 'fake' a lot of what i do when talking to a stranger.
^ I always got a kick out of people like that. Like they'll do a tick that I just did...and I'll be taken aback.... and flattered. lol
when i am talking to strangers i have to tell myself to SLOW DOWN or i will mix the words up and turn red and forget what i'm rambling about. :gossip:
I think one thing that helps is becoming comfortable with that tendency to get caught up Boogs. I myself get caught up a lot on my words, the people that I commonly talk to know it and don't have a problem with it. IF they think badly of it, they keep it to themselves. You should be fine with organizing your thoughts out loud, sometimes it's the only way I would be able to get what I wanted across.
