greetings to all. my name is kaylin. i was diagnosed with aspergers syndrome at age 11. my school life wasn't a pleasent 11 years. when i started school in kidnergarten, i couldn't stand the noise and amount of activity going on, and i use to hide in the bathrooms. i was bullied for most of my school life and the teachers saw me as a waste of time, and underestimated my intelligence. thank the heavenly lord my mom found a better school for me. its a school for people with disabilites. now instead of having kids run from me like i'm a diesease, i've got a large circle of friends. my mom told me about this website, and so i signed up. cant wait to meet some new friends on here :)

How does going to school for kids with disabilities affect you long term? Would you be prepared to college after such a school? Are the courses easier than in most schools? If so, it might not be a good idea since Asperger doesn't affect your intelligence. It would be pity to have to take easier courses just because you can't deal socially.

i agree with roman,
a special school may be a very good thing for you socially,
just make sure your school is challenging you academically,

many aspies actually have a very high iq and can be very gifted in certain areas,
if you notice you have a nack for a certain subject or interest follow, through with it because aspies tend to have an extreme amount of potential with their special interests!! !

good luck and welcome to wp!! !
