Description
My mom originally did this computer art drawing for me but I decided to do a remake of it. Whenever i'm upset,I look at it to help me understand myself more. I know it sounds silly,but it sort of helps. I had no idea where to put this,so I put it in ASCII,even though it isn't an image made from computer text,it's more of a word project I did in Macromedia Fireworks MX. Asperger's Syndrome is a psychological disorder I have that's very much like mild autism. Napoleon Dynamite and Deb both display certain behaviors of it. Forgive me for the crappy spacing,I just edited it to have it make more sense.Related content

This shows why being an Aspie can suck. Believe me, I am one myself. I've gotten better at such things as communication and understanding, but I still don't feel advanced enough.
Sorry if I sounded like a whiny little girl; I just wanted to express my thoughts and emotions.

Thank you so much for posting this.... I was just recently told that I have Asperger Syndrome (Really weird I know that no one caught it in my 20+ years of living until now) and this has helped put some things together. I think I will be using this a lot as I learn about this syndrome and how to actually cope with everything.

That is me! I found out about Aspergers about 3 months or so ago and I feel like I found myself. The feeling when you realize your problems have "reason" is amazing.

I have High-Functioning Autism.
Exactly like this.

I read this thinking "But this is all normal, right?" Oh, dear... I'll have to ask therapist no. 3 to test me for Asperger's

As my bf said, I am also an Aspie. And I have a brother who has autism so we are very much alike.
All of these things are absolutely true about me. It's like it described me. Although I don't have problems with people touching me (unless I barely know them). I think my worst symptoms are eye contact and sensitivity; I can't stand to wear certain clothes and I can't stand certain sounds. I was bullied all the time in school because of how strange I always acted and cuz I cry alot. I really, REALLY hate change. Plus I can't stand to be in crowds of people I don't know, I get very overwhelmed. Do any of these happen to any of you too?

My sweetheart has this problem.. I feel really bad about it. 
I still love her, no matter what. She's really special to me.

I've been curious about the brain for awhile, especially Asperger's because that's my main interest. (Last year was Bi-Polar Disorder)
I clicked on this and when I went through I was like:
1) Yes, all the time. The last sentence in this line applies the most.
2)Yes (It makes perfect sense to me though)
3)Sometimes
4)Up until last year, now I'm not so shy around people unless I don't know them well.
5)Depends. I need to know what to expect at school, but I like to change up my free time sometimes.
6)Who doesn't? XD
7)Yes
8)Yes, it goes along with the first sentence.
9)Yes
But I don't have Asperger's (I don't think!), it just is super-duper interesting to learn about these things. This is really cool andI think teenagers without Asperger's should also take a look at this, it's kind of inspirational about how to be yourself!!!
Cool poster!

Ah, a fellow Aspie~
The best thing to remember is that we are all different. If we were all the same, it'd be a dull and boring world, wouldn't it?

I'm an Aspie too. I also work at a place where there's a lot of people with Asperger's Syndrome.
Know that you are never alone.

Wow this is great! A fellow Asperger's Kid. Don't worry about anything, 'cause diferent is cooler then being cool!

An interesting, and true, acrostic. I was diagnosed with Asperger's the summer before my 6th grade, so I tried to find out everything I could about it. My mom and dad also did this, so I read some chapters from the books they had gotten.
Got to say that this is very true, all-in-all.

This is very great written...
I have Asperger and it's 50/50 to me. I have friends and family who understands me or else it is very hard to live with it, so I kinda both like it and hate it in diffirent ways.

I have Asperger's Syndrome; and this was very inspirational. Anxiety and Rejection is very common to me.

You inspired me to do this stamp using your deviation as a guide. For the people with this syndrome so you know.

about Eye contact part. I can't do Eye contact in any way. If i try my eyes hurt in the same way as they hurt when i watch directly the sun (i tried when i was a kid). When i was 2 my parents tried to teach me to look directly in theyr eyes. I failed, so they tried to start to teach me to look their ears when they were talking with me. I tried and i could hear nothing. I can't use two senses at once.

I have Asperger's Syndrome myself - for some reason though the Eye Contact thing is probably my biggest symptom, and to some extent the obsessing and fear of a significant amount of change and rejection (going away to uni ext year still makes me a tad nervous). Escapism, too, though I guess it was "worse" when i was younger (I didn't know when it was and wasn't acceptable to play pretend, it was said I have an overactive imagination). And I'm not gonna lie, social situations are awkward and difficult, but mainly when I'm dealing with new people. It's different once I've known a person for a while, for some reason. And games, can't forget the games! It's mainly Poke'mon with me for some reason, though... I've tried picking up other video games but overall the only ones I finish are Poke'mon games (but then you can never really "finish" those).
It's strange, I haven't really thought much about my "aspie-ness" until this past semester - I guess from meeting another Aspie and noticing how much he's struggled whereas I seem to just... well, I guess "adapt" better, to the point where I think I might've been misdiagnosed. The more I look into it though, the more I guess I kind of see some of the supposed traits/symptoms in myself.
(Sorry if this seems irrelevant *hides*)

Okay okay, disregard my comment about having it. I'm being a stupid self diagnoser. I'm sorry.

I know I associate the colors neon blue and pale yellow with the flavor vanilla. O_o

Yes~! Thank you, that's exactly what I feel! I like the 11 and white bread tomato sauce association
I actually like having Aspergers, especially since I have a few friends who understand me <3 But other times, it's hard.

Good..God...This describes me almost perfectly

People with A/S are just like normal people, only a bit different. It's scary, without a word of lie.
I always thought there was a reason behind why I had the mannerisms I did, and until 2 years ago, I had no fucking clue at all. It really all makes sense. It wasn't being beaten up, it's a side effect of A/S.

That was wonderful of your mom to make this. I have Asperger's too, so I saw a lot of myself in all the descriptions about Asperger's. Living with it has never been easy, but it makes us very unique, special individuals.
Did you also know that a lot of people believe guys like Einstein, Issac Newton, Beethoven, Van Gogh, and Thomas Jefferson had Asperger's?

Mozart, Johan Bach, And Bill Gates! Don't forget him

This is all completely true to me... This is an almost complete discription of my personality...
๐: 0 โฉ: 0
When I was growing up, I hated the fact I was born with Asperger's, I was bullied and mocked by my peers, openly sterotyped by special ed teachers and tas, I had no self confidence, there was no one on my side, and I did everything I could to hide my disorder. But...now that all those things have passed, I have come to accept what I was born with and realize there is nothing wrong with what I have
๐: 0 โฉ: 0
i have it too, and alot of the stuff you have in there describes me well, except for the eye contact part i feel i HAVE to make eye contact when talking to someone
๐: 0 โฉ: 0
I also have Asperger's. I completely agree with every word.
๐: 0 โฉ: 0
i have aspergers and i have to agree with everything this say's

Love it, love it. I have AS and every bit of this speaks to me. Faving!

I agree. I was born this way and everyday, I wish to be in Stormia, the planet I created where I ruled with my best friend, Cloe, There were dragons, and it was always winter (I hate summer because my grandpa died during it). It was just perfect.

i have asperger syndrome too. I completely understand and it can be rough.

This sign is so true. Why is it in scraps? It's great!

I have been fighting Asperger's for over a quarter of a century. Truer words have never been spoken.

Honestly, I didn't give a damn about other people and fitting in, so I don't know why you do...
Please detatch from the average mentality, and find a way beyond the societal culling...
