Hi. I've seen this site before, but only briefly, and I only registered just a few minutes ago. I'm SUM1 (Ayman), and I'm a 14 year old male from England. I've always thought I have Asperger's, and I am "Awaiting Diagnosis" (as the registration form says) right now as me and my parents have seen the doctor about it, but the visit was mainly about a severe IBS-like condition, or possibly IBS, that I have.
Apart from being an extremely likely Aspie, I have many other health issues. My IBS problem causes me to get very nauseous and/or have stomach spasms after I eat anything at all, which subsequently means I can't eat much, which means I'm quite underweight, and I also get a lot of frequent migraines, AND I also experience dizziness and feel out of breath and have chest pain sometimes when I stand up from a sitting position or suddenly move. I also have a LOT of phobias including emetophobia (fear of being sick), agoraphobia (phobia of any situation in which escape or help is unavailable), phonophobia (phobia of loud noises), phobia of not being able to breathe, phobia of being underwater, phobia of crowds, social anxiety, mysophobia (phobia of germs, because of the emetophobia), and think Asperger's may be related to/a contributing factor of them. I also don't like people breathing near me or being too near to me, and because of these phobias I never go to cinemas, never eat anything that isn't mine or isn't bought DIRECTLY from a shop (with no outside influence), never go on rollercoasters, never do almost anything social, don't go out much, have weird habits/compulsions, and many other things that I don't have enough time to list.
I have the common aspects of Asperger's, i.e. not being social, not understanding social norms or social cues, being interested in very specific things, also people say I speak very quietly, and I also sometimes repeat people and also speak quite monotonously. Also people have remarked that I'm rude to them when I haven't even noticing the slightest thing. I have a few friends, but anyone who isn't seems to want to be my enemy. One of my other friends at school also has Asperger's. Also I have terrible handwriting (like seriously, terrible), which may be evidence of the motor problem side of Asperger's.
I could write much more about myself but it would take too long.
