I know someone with Aspergers syndrome?

I have Asperegrs and it took me a while to accept it.

The reason why is that when I was young, all I wanted to do is fit in. I didn't want a label hanging off me. I didn't want people to treat me differently and constantly make me focus on my weaknesses all the time. I don't want people telling me what I can and can't do when I know full well myself. And I also don't like annoying people hanging around me telling me what to do as if I was a child.

When you are labelled with something, even with anything. People get so dam weird and treat you differently as if you are incapable.

And all you want to be is just a person.

I do not know why they cannot accept it. I have Aspergers and I accept it; it is who I am. I suppose maybe they just want to fit in and be normal. Aspergers is a hard thing to live with, and society is not that understanding. It is like putting on a front all the time, going through life acting how you think you should act. At least that is how it is for me. Just be supportive.

My older brother has Aspergers and he is by far the most intelligent person I know. He catches onto things even quicker than I do and at 16 years old and in his junior year, he has a nearly perfect GPA and is the greatest mathematician I had ever had he pleasure of being tutored by. He doesn't have a lot of friends, but he doesn't seem to care, he was diagnosed when he was 3 years old, and he knows it and accepts it. Maybe your friend just wants to fit in and not be treated differently, that's what I think anyway.

I have asperger's too I accpeted mines but maybe because the reason why might feel like other people smarter than us while he have problems for example one of asperger's syndrome is to hard for us to understand other people even when they're giving us a easy example we still would have difficulties so yeah the fact that we have problems we feel like where not the same like the others people who doesn't have problems

Because they are more than a label. And more than their autism. How would you like someone to force you to look at your faults and weaknesses?

well frankly I don't think it's often much more than an imaginary disease even when a shrink slaps that diagnosis around.

And you haven't said whether some shrink gave this diagnosis or not. Or maybe it was just you that decided he has it.

Been diagnosed by a therapist/councillor

Maybe it is you who doesnt accept it? It could also be they feel like an outcast.

because they have no emotions other than anger

because they are retarded
