That's just awful to hear but to write it is a interesting idea.

I just listened to my teachers, and occasionally answered questions. But then texting hadn't been invented yet...;) The things they write sometimes...

She is a very interesting person and to regonise and help others understand at her age is wonderful.

I am so much like her and what she puts could so easily of been me, I also like her when younger often became so obsessive unable to control my actions, I lost so many friends, relationships but never understood or know why until now.

Just after I was diagnosed last year I interviewed her, in fact was my very first interview.

Except for this bit

Quote:
While going through some troubles at her final school, she began to text a number of teachers obssessively - a common symptom of AS - and was eventually arrested for harassment.


I dont think texting people obsessively is a common symptom of AS. A small amount may do that, but I think people with AS are more likely to forget to text others. Or am I wrong?

Quite a few people on the autism spectrum also seem to have OCD - obessive compulsive disorder.

I do wonder at times are some of these associated conditions, because of the fact that we are not allowed to be who we are from birth and its society in general that causes damage to people on the autism spectrum, our insecurities etc...
