I suffer from Autism? do u?

OK so i know i don't have Autism but my older brother does and it has effected my life on so many levels, i wont go into details, but i have taken an overdose on 3 occasions and i suffer from major depression. I try to explain to family friends and even Counselors. But I get the same thing "hes got problems, he can't help it". does anyone else "suffer" from autism?

    Why are you letting this depress YOU? I'm confused. You are not your brother.

    By the way, yes, I do suffer from autism alongside other conditions and seizures (though I am also a happy person with a good life, I'm not without my problems), but I despise it when people say, "She has problems; she can't help it." That makes me feel like less of a person, and that hurts.

    there is not something definitive related to Cho having autism. I examine that article too and it sounds to me like the media is grasping at straws without needing each and all the data. i'm not asserting it is not available, I do exactly not think of it quite is possibly. specialists have reported he greater healthful the profile for this sort of killer.......think of returned to Columbine. no person ever reported those childrens had autism.

    So why are you taking on imaginary problems? It's his autism, not yours. You are not in any way responsible for his condition or his behavior, nor do you have to take on any negative feelings about it. And you don't have to make any excuses for him to others. You need to accept him for who he is, autism and all, and get on with your own life.
