Post by: Adam on September 21, 2009, 11:19:12 AM

You seem ADHD to me, not aspie.

Asperger isn't usually the spazzy, hyperactive type but more typically introvert, dreamy. I'm surprised no one suggested ADHD because at least to me you feel so much ADHD. You might have some mild retardation when it comes to mental age, but this doesn't equal AS just because AS people have it too.

You might have some mild retardation when it comes to mental age, but this doesn't equal AS just because AS people have it too.

i think hte dreamy/introverted description fits me well IRL, but not online, and it's difficult to tell how much of my IRL personality is down to social anxiety. for example i could just be that way because i'm incapable of being my real self. i've often thought it's a good job i had social anxiety while growing up, as if I didn't, i wouldn't have been able to stop myself doing really stupid things or getting really angry in class

i have the whole obsessive interests, routines, misunderstanding people when they talk though

but even then, i get that more IRL. i think i can pass for NT online (or am i flattering myslf?  :laugh: )

You don't look AS at all either. People with AS have certain expressions which makes them easy to recognize, sometimes a "dead face" no matter how much theatre mimic they are capable of. In your pictures at least, no "dead" signs are visible in the face, eyes etc anywhere. Your way of writing and personality suggests it's more concentration, hyperactivity issues and retardation rather than complete AS retardation. You might have overlapping symptomes but not full AS, is my guess.

I'm severely depressed myself and have social anxiety, who knows how I would be without it. I have manic depressive/bipolar indications though, when I feel happy it usually becomes a little too much. I get exstatic and feel almost sublime, as if I was a God or something. If I drink and get a bipolar top at the same time I can sometimes disappear into a fantasy of greatness, epicness and immortality. I want to die in the city lights, fall from the sky, surround myself with music and perform something in front of 30 000 people on a giant arena. I become totally insane.

i think i try not to look aspie in pics. ones other people take of me look very weird i think. i'll try and find one
other people say I am expressionless or look "depressed" "stoned" "pissed off"

i do agree my personality on here doesn't seem AS at all though, when i read through my own posts. i tend to have different ways of expressing myself online, and i go through phases of them. even down to the way i use capital letters and stuff. atm i think i'm going through a spazzy phase. maybe that is ADHD

another thing that might be ADHD is how little noises distract me so much. i always thought my sensory problems were obvious AS things, but maybe it's just that i get too distracted and notice things too much

I'd say you're just a spaz

this is what i used to think, but it's got to the point now where i'm 21 and still i'm fucked up. like there must be SOMETHING not right in my head. it's really frustrating not knowing exactly what it is, if it's not AS

Many aspies seem to have very colourful language online. I am the opposite myself. When I played MMO's people thought I was weird for using capital letters, sometimes punctuation and writing full sentences without ever using a smiley. I played with others who were clearly aspie but they were typically extremely emotive in their expressions, lots of "zomg lulz w00t :P".

IRL I'm almost theatrical at times, when I'm not paralyzed by the severe social anxiety,

I'm not a typical aspie, but my spazzyness developed late.

As a child I was rigid, OCD-like, pedantic, uptight etc. I didn't even learn how to joke until I was around 17-18.

Maybe you have AS but not the typical type.

i'm definitely not a typical aspie. when i was a kid i was weird, but ok. i had friends until i was about 11. i had some aspie symptoms like how i walked, sensory stuff, obsessions and all that. but i didn't have major problems and no one who met me would have thought i was autistic

Post by: Blasted on September 21, 2009, 11:59:28 AM
I think the more you isolate yourself from people, the weirder you get.  As a kid you were probably constatly surrounded by kids your age, despite wanting it or not but as you got older you got a choice whether to be around people or not.

I certainly got weirder the less time I spent with people. 

That's my take on it anyway.

yeah i think I am somewhere in the middle, my personality is kinda andro as well

IRL people tend to either refer to be as he/son/guy, or try and offend me by asking me if i'm male or female  :lol:

i think i have quite feminine features though, which is ok with me

And yeah I agree about the isolating yourself thing. I have definitely got more fucked up since I started being very withdrawn in school. I used to put that down to just AS getting "worse" as you're in your teens, which i think happens to a lot of aspies. but maybe with me my AS traits are just from being fucked up, rather than actually having AS

I used to think my AS traits were because of cluster B disorders and a sociopathic/disturbed emotional spectrum with high degrees of narcissism. However, I am really autistic as well. I'm both autistic and a sociopath, but being aware of the fact I am a sociopath makes me handle it in a different way.

I wonder how many people are typical textbook aspies.
I know more a-typical aspies than typical aspies. Both IRL and online.

Oh well Soph, you look very much like Soph to me.
And I'll believe you if you tell that you are an aspie.  ;D
They come in all kinds of flavours and shapes, even in a Soph version.

And who knows, DSM V might differentiate and shatter us aspies all over the spectrum, with new labels. Who cares.

Soph, I think you are an aspie. From what I know about autism. Plus every aspie is different. You meet the criteria and so you are a Soph aspie.
With a dash of OCD thrown in. ;)

I don't think it really matters tbh, but for what it's worth if there is any AS there, you wouldn't pick it by looking at you. If you see yourself as a spazz, then WTF is wrong with that? Being a spazz is just another way of expressing yourself, and if people can't accept that, then fuck 'em. I never claimed to be aspie, but I also never went around saying how all the NTs and others were so much better. As far as I'm concerned, we are who we are and we are all just people living on the face of the earth.

Black, white, brindle, Aspie, NT, blind, Jewish, spazz, whatever. We are all just people.

Soph: you can't fix what isn't broken. Whoever or whatever you are is what you were meant to be. You are not 'damaged', and you don't have to feel that you need to be 'fixed' to fit in. You are one of the smartest people here, you are in Uni doing a degree (which I never did) and you run your own forum. Plus, you are good with your pets, so as far as thinking that you have to be something you're not, then whomever told you that needs a good kick in the arse. I know you feel that you need to change somehow, but the most important thing is accepting the person you are. That's the person WE all know here, and if anyone else outside doesn't want to get to know you, then that's their loss.

I know what you mean, also you need to know if it is even fixable vs just some shit you have to live with an accept.

For me this was my main concern when all the shinks kept throwing different things at me and nothing seemed to gel with me. Right up until I got my AS dx that is.

I haven't said that anyone on here is giving their country a bad name.  I've judged a few people on here, mainly soy, and its pretty obvious he's a wanker anyway, he proves it everytime he posts.  People that give our country a bad name, are either foreigners who came here to get benefits for doing nothing.  People who talk like wannabe gangsters, even worse when they are white, and wear their jeans down to their knees.  Oh and football thugs, who just go to the ground to beat the shit out of people.  I don't fit into any of those.

and be honest if you do have an opinion either way, i'm not gonna be offended if you don't think i belong in the cool club  :lol:

btw: i am diagnosed but wasn't diagnosed till I was 18. the guy who did it said i "definitely" have it, but that was only after an hour or so with me

From reading your posts, I would say that you definitely have AS but your OCD causes most of your problems.

That's what my family think too. In a way I actually feel better with my OCD though, but I guess that's the nature of it - as long as you follow the rituals etc, you're ok. Which is the problem. The doctor I saw the other day seemed to think it might be something else though.

But then most psychs don't seem to understand people with AS very well, and mistake things in us (if I do have AS that is) for something else, simply because they manifest themselves differently in autistic people

I kinda wanna go back to see the AS specialist who diagnosed me, so I can see what he thinks. But that would cost a lot as I'd have to go private

I think that as long as you have the time to carry through with your rituals you feel OK, but I think you actually spend quite a lot of time on them and then when you can't follow them through for some reason, it kind of freaks you out.  It would be interesting to see what the doctor thinks about that.  How much does it cost to go private with someone like an AS specialist?

Wow.  So how long did the one assessment take?  I'm wondering how many hours the doctor had to work to earn £500.

Here, private child psychiatrists earn somewhere around $200-$250 per hour.

I only talked to him on my own for an hour or so I think. Then he saw my family too.

That was the only time spent in the actual assessment, although I'd filled in questionnaires and stuff for him beforehand.

I might be wrong about the cost. It was expensive though, because I'd probably still be waiting now if I'd got it on the NHS, and the guy I saw was an AS specialist who's had work published on it and seemed to know what he was talking about. It was worth it, but not something I could afford if I wanted to keep seeing him I think

It was, god knows how good the bloke thinks he is to charge that much.  Then again he DID nearly give me my BPD dx but we ran out of time (money too  :laugh:).  The insurance from my stepfather's workplace paid for it though, hence why I asked if Soph has insurance.

LOL, I was just reading your thread about nosy people, etc.  I knew I felt the same way you do about lots of people, and my reason is primarily because I bore so easily and I can't stay focused on whatever it is they're blabbing about unless I find it very interesting personally.  So I wind up getting irritated and pissed off with them, because it's taken so much effort for me to try and pay attention in the first place.  Maybe that's what's happening with you, too. 

Yeah, it might be something to think about, especially for your uni stuff.  Might want to explain your study habits, etc. to the doc and see what they think.  If you really do have ADHD, stimulant meds could help you get your work done more efficiently.  But I don't think you could take them because of the anxiety.  Plus they can really turn you into a zombie - for some reason, they made me feel more assburgery when I was on them.

Is that your final answer?  :orly:

Can I ask the audience first?

If you think it will help.

I think I know you pretty well, and seems to me you've got high-functioning AS, ADHD, social anxiety and OCD. 

The OCD and social anxiety are what seem to impact you the most.

Cheers. I think you probably know me as well if not better than anyone else online the last couple years. What makes you think I have ADHD btw? Someone else said that too, but it's never been suggested to me IRL
Perhaps a generalized retardation i.e. liking Man. U. etc. ?

I only started wondering about this recently, when you had all those papers to write.  It reminded me of myself back in uni or at work, of how I'd procrastinate and then hyper-focus to get stuff done.
Other stuff...your temper is like mine, you seem physically hyper like me.  Besides your anxiety/OCD, we seem pretty similar in how our brains operate.
Maybe I should bring it up next time I see someone then. It might help with my uni stuff
LOL, I was just reading your thread about nosy people, etc.  I knew I felt the same way you do about lots of people, and my reason is primarily because I bore so easily and I can't stay focused on whatever it is they're blabbing about unless I find it very interesting personally.  So I wind up getting irritated and pissed off with them, because it's taken so much effort for me to try and pay attention in the first place.  Maybe that's what's happening with you, too. 

Yeah, it might be something to think about, especially for your uni stuff.  Might want to explain your study habits, etc. to the doc and see what they think.  If you really do have ADHD, stimulant meds could help you get your work done more efficiently.  But I don't think you could take them because of the anxiety.  Plus they can really turn you into a zombie - for some reason, they made me feel more assburgery when I was on them. 
I think most aspies have attentional problems. I take ADHD meds but they don't help me get my homework done on time or easily because I have bad study habits. The meds help with paying attention in class and being able to write stuff down and listen to what people are saying instead of daydreaming and not caring. So when it comes to exam time I am better off than I used to be because I remember what happened in class as I was mentally there.

I think you should get your OCD sorted out first, to be honest. I am sure you could do a lot better with study and stuff if you weren't occupied with thinking should you go to the toilet or not because if you do you need a shower. OCD isn't just about the actions that take up a lot of your time, but the thoughts that do, too.

I liked Pstchology but I never took the advanced courses. I did read The Clam Plate Orgy and have studied and used redirected aggression to my advantage. That guy Watson that fucked with baby Albert was a POS.

I agree.
