For those who reacted to this negatively, I'll refuse to point fingers, but again I will however point out that these things being said only shows ones desperatism, which obviously goes far beyond anything you can imagine, especially with your single mindedness and everything. Note the key phrase here, which is not wishing for a physical disease, but is "at least people would care about me". What does that say to you? My mother used the words like "pitty party" after I would simply try to express my frustrations, and I don't see you as being any different! By the way NocturnalQuilter I am directing this message towards you, which is pointing a finger.. whoops did I just say I wouldn't do that?

Lots of stuff to reply here-
1. First as far as Paris- good god- has anyone ever gotten slack
because of yoour ASP? Not me! Quite the contrary. She should have rotted like the rest of us. Sorry.
2. The gluten thing? I am on the gluten free diet now. I had such pain in gut till I quit all wheat. Now I can't eat wheat, milk, almost NOTHING but rice, rice milk, fish, and apples. I might as well not eat at all. This is me: l
3. Mute mode? I used to go into that on occasions. It seemed to make sense. Then a kid moved in with us- from a baby and by goodness when you have a kid around you do things differently. Has anyone else had a kid pop them out of mute mode? |

I've had to open a car door on the left side with my right BTW when I fell on my left arm and broke my joint. I would use my right to open it and then stick my fingers in the door and pull it open. Then I had to use my right again to close the door. It hurt like heck if I tried stretching out my left arm so I had to keep it folded. I even typed with one hand and used one hand to move the arrow and clicking the button on my dad's laptop. It was very awkward but I did it. I got used to it. |
I know how that is! I broke my left wrist(I AM right handed), and I had to learn to tie a tie one handedly. My head is too big to cheat and leave the knot tied.

Screw you.
You don't know me, you never will know me and your assumptions about what I can or cannot imagine are baseless.
Perhaps you could read back a bit further in this thread and see past your proverbial nose? I have very strong feelings about cancer and how it has deeply impacted my life.
Frustrating? Yeah, the very real chance of losing one's mother can be "frustrating". Go figure.
Don't see me as being any different? Clearly, you don't see much, do you? |

It matters what your job is, but good memory and high knowledge are quite helpful. |

Synth- Clearly you and I do not and will not "get along" on this forum. You've taken two pot-shots at me (http://www.wrongplanet.net/postxf79170-0-30.html) and frankly, I'm getting bored with your need to condescend and flatter yourself.
Make you a deal: Don't post to or about me and I'll do the same. My life is way too short to waste time dealing with this kind of crap.
Sorry everyone else- back to your regularly scheduled topic: |

PLease stop. Nocturnal was only doing this to show that cancer is that bad. She was not trying to start a pity party. Really guys, let's not fight. I don't like that.  |

I'm in the same boat as the OP. I absolutely hate Asperger's. One thing I've noticed is that some people seem to have it "worse" than others so just because some Aspies have found a way to get by and be happy, that probably won't work for everyone or people that have it "worse" than you do. I don't know if I'd trade Asperger's for cancer, but if someone gave me the choice of living a long, life and dying of old age in my current condition or, curing me tomorrow, but I would only live 10 more years and not a day longer, I'd have them cure me in a heart beat.
I hate not having friends
I hate not being able to make friends
I hate my "interests" because they're not conducive to a better life
I hate my "interests" because, for some reason, they require other people
I hate that I have a very hard time learning things that don't directly interest me
I hate the fact that I don't like being alone and I don't like being with people
I hate having to wear sunglasses every single time I go outside because the light hurts my eyes
I hate being more sensitive to pain. Combine that with Fibromyalgia and things aren't fun |

Claiming someones desperatism as a "pitty party" is one of the most ignorent things someone can say. People who say these things may not actually want a disease but instead only want someone to CARE about them, like someone would care about someone who is sick. I don't make assumptions, I make my comments based on evidence, which points to the fact that you obviously don't know what it's like to be in that situation, so don't bash people who have! Were you hinting before that your mother died of cancer? Well ok, you have the right to be sad, especially if she was kind to you. Not all of us have/had support like you have. So stop being so hypocritical.

I've been thinking that's the case, Bataar. It's because we are on different areas of the spectrum, it affects us differently. I have some positives that I absolutely adore. They exist in areas like art/writing/creating stuff. I enjoy this. I can also put myself in a good mood by writing about certain subjects, animals, for instance. Stuff like baby possum faces give me a feeling of euphoria because I think they are so cute. |

Trust me when I say, there have been far more ignorant things posted than "pity party". Barring that please refer to page 2, 5th post down of this thread. It's a shame I should actually have to hold your hand and point it out to you.
Who's the hypocrit now, Synth? |

Not me, I don't recall ever saying anything bad about that situation at all. I was only trying to point out that not everyone was as fortunate as you, having that kind of support from anyone, so it's not nice to call something a "pitty party" that you know nothing about. Just like you have had problems with your mother having cancer, some of us have had problems that are equally bad, except with healthy mothers. I could bring up the term "abusive" but people react negatively about that so I won't. I think you get the point! Your mother was sweet, ours were rotten and neglectful don't look down on us when we feel just as much as you.
