    I may have had Epilepsy -Complex Partial Seizure- (Need help/advice if it could be)

    I realized it today, I searched online to the reason why I feel blurry and confused in social situations and I noticed several symptoms on Web MD about Complex Partial Seizure and it fits. First I thought it was just general anxiety/social and my aspergers combined. But now I realized it could...

    Perseverance, persistence, tenacity, determination, isin't that how we are supposed to be?

    Today I was outside digging up dandelion roots, have this small shovel that I use for the task. Four hours later I realized that I had been working solidly non-stop without even a rest. Ignored the fact that I should stop, I was dehydrated, had to go to the bathroom, hungry, my hands hurt, yet...

    "Half-Wondering" (Am I Really An Aspie?)

    Hi there! Again... So two days ago or so I joined this site. I wasn't very detailed in my introductory thread. At the end I said that I believe I have Asperger's and that while my neurodiverse and neurotypical traits are of a similar number (ND Score: 110 of 200, NT Score: 107 of 200. That's...

    Hi...

    So, yesterday I was diagnosed with Asperger's, and it really does explain a lot. I found out about this place and thought it'd be good to talk to some people in the same boat. I'm not sure what else to say, but yeah :P

    An introduction

    I'm trying to put the pieces together. Diagnosed NVLD, with significant and far reaching sensory issues, sensing that there is a bit more to it than that. I am exploring an Asperger's diagnosis as I find that I relate to Aspies and people on the spectrum vastly more than I do NTs (that is to...

    Scared to go on first date

    Okay, I think I know what I'm going to do, but I still want some advice and opinions. I had another forum earlier about dating but this one's a little different. Basically, there's this guy I've liked for two years, and we've been good friends for those two years, and we finally decided to go...

    Finally seeking a professional diagnosis—Overwhelmed

    It has taken me two years, but I finally have health insurance and the ability to seek a professional diagnosis for what I highly suspect is Asperger's. I am worried about the outcome, mostly that the diagnosis will not confirm my suspicions and that I do not have Asperger's, but am instead...

    Any Elementary school teachers here?

    I'm currently in college studying to be a teacher. I'm not sure what I want to teach, but I have it narrowed down between special education and kindergarten. I'm not sure which one is best for me. I'm an aspie, but that has never been a problem with me when I'm working with kids. I'm not sure if...

    Asperger's and difficulty with authority figures

    Much of my life from early on has involved difficulties with any sort of authority figure. Teachers, older siblings, bosses, have given me no end of grief over the years. My Father had the same sorts of difficulties and perceptions in his life. I understood ethical and moral behavior as a...

    I think I have Asperger's?

    Hi, I'm 31 and I think I have Aperger's; I think I have had it my whole life, maybe? I could be wrong and just be an anxious person. As a child I did poorly in school, although I think I was fairly smart. I couldn't focus. the classroom was a kaleidoscope of feelings. Everything made me...

    Howdy from Nevada!

    Hello all! My name is David and I'm the chef instructor of a rural high school in Nevada. When I was 53 years of age (and teaching in Vegas), I was told that I'd be getting a new student who was a high performing autistic. Since I didn't know anything about autism, I read up on this and as I...
