Hi, im Tim from the Netherlands, i recently found out
i have asperges but since nobody really understands
it and frankly i dont have many or no people to talk
to about it i came to this site.
Hi, I am Ghosthunter, I am HFA and even to these
AS folks I am not always understood in a face-to-face!
So don't feel bad. Welcome to WrongPlanet and
I have a few friendly things to say and ask!
1)..."I love you name, TINMAN"
2)...Netherlands? Isn't that near Norway?
3)...What is it that you do that makes you stand out?
4)...What is it that you don't do that makes you stand out?
Slight Dramatic Pause!..........Hmmmmmmm?
I say your 18-25. I am probly wrong! But I
will stick by this age group as my rough guess!
Hmmmmm?

Thanks everyone, this seems like a nice place, i posted my story on another part of the forums..and to answer your questions GH, yes im 19, so im in that age group.
the netherlands is west of germany and north of belgium and france..and west of it is the sea, then england. might be easier to check a map of europe :p about the other 2 questions..i dunno, it would probably be negative things..i dont think anything positive of myself at the moment...but more on that is in my story..well thats all for now, thanks for the comments
Im an 18 year old female that has always just been different(my name is Kim by the way)..as was my father and he was the only person that understood me..when he passed away in august my whole world crumbled and I quickly found myself lost...I have been diagnosed with everything from Bipolar disorder to borderline personality disorder along with ADHD they don't know what they are talkin about at all..I found that when I take DXM (a cough suppresant with effects quite like speed) I can say what Im feeling...and better understand the way social situations work..but there were many bad things that came along with it..I have always had a problem with working because I can never establish relationships with my coworkers that make work a fun place to be...However, I recently started working with children which makes me very happy.....What made me come to the conclusion that I may have asperger's is that I love working with Autistic children because I for some reason completely understand them and have actually helped a few children who are autistic to become better adjusted social individuals...I was worked with my entire life to speak correctly...so language was always very important to me which unfortunately caused the people around me to think that absolutely nothing was wrong with me and in fact I was just lazy and was looking for an excuse to not accomplish the everyday tasks that "normal" people can accomplish..Im not making up my misunderstanding of socializations...I wish that I was...it would make my life a lot easier...Now not only am I trying to figure out how to live without my father around as a support system but I have lost many of the people around me and am struggling with a drug problem...The love of life!

Im an 18 year old female that has always just
been different(my name is Kim by the way)..as
was my father and he was the only person that
understood me..when he passed away in august
my whole world crumbled and I quickly found
myself lost...
First of all! Sorry your father died. How old was he?
Hmmmmm? Let's see 18+25=43 years old!
This is my guess.
And how did he die at such a young age?
I hope you don't mind me asking these 2 questions?
I am just trying to understand you!
Bipolar disorder to borderline personality
disorder along with ADHD they don't know
what they are talkin about at all..
That my friend! is call pharmacudical marketing$$$
I am glad your smart to see past being their
guinea pig.
Hmmmmm? Why such multiple dx's? Hmmmm?
What are you autistic characteristics?
with effects quite like speed) I can say what Im feeling
...and better understand the way social situations work
..but there were many bad things that came along with it
Hmmmm? I am going to ask some questions here!
1)...How did you come across this DXM idea?
It sounds clever. Is it a prescription? non-prescr'?
2)...Are you on any other med's?
Sometimes things don't mix well!
because I can never establish relationships
with my coworkers that make work a fun place to be
I can relate to this. 99% of my jobs fell in this
category here. What kind of jobs were they?
For me it was food service, market research,
and some computer related jobs. Mostly
customer service, and that is where I am
overwhelmed most!
which makes me very happy.....What made me come
to the conclusion that I may have asperger's is that
I love working with Autistic children because I for
some reason completely understand them and have
actually helped a few children who are autistic to become
better adjusted social individuals...
I will say HFA, if Speech delay is major!
I will say PDD-NOS if minimal speech delay!
I will say AS if no speech delay, but relatively
good communciation skills.
This is of course a generalization, and will bleed to
my next question.
...so language was always very important to me
which unfortunately caused the people around me
to think that absolutely nothing was wrong with me
Hmmmmm?.........
Hi! I am Ghosthunter, I am HFA. I had speech delay
from 3-5 due to hearing loss that was repaired. Speech
therapy for a small part of my life, and a life time of
communication interfacing with others. I say, unless
otherwise noted....HFA is closer, maybe a PDD-NOS.
AS is a completely different creature since they had
relatively normal as possible development in the key
years I lost, and perhaps you!
excuse to not accomplish the everyday tasks that
"normal" people can accomplish..Im not making
up my misunderstanding of socializations...I wish
that I was...it would make my life a lot easier...
Hmmmmm? What kind of incompletions?
And no! I don't think your making this up!
As a matter of fact....Welcome to WrongPlanet!
without my father around as a support system but I
have lost many of the people around me and am
struggling with a drug problem...The love of life!Back to top
Hmmmm? is this due to the DMX stuff you mentioned
earlier? If not, feel free to elaborate. I hope you
do well on Wrong Planet!
Sincerely,
Ghosthunter
