He got his third diagnose today: Aspergers, Tourettes and narscissistic.
I hope this will not have side effects on how other people thinks about us with aspergers.
Sad


(Anders behrig Breivik was the crazy nut that killed 77 people last summer.)

Great Sad

"Norwegian mass killer Anders Breivik has a rare, high-functioning form of Asperger's that has left him incapable of empathy or real friendship, one of Norway's most prominent psychiatrists has told a court in Oslo."

Well, there's one killer with Asperger syndrome, but there's still hundreds of killers with NT syndrome.

People don't seem to see it that way. They look for what's different so there is a reason that person did what they did.

Well, that's normal. They're NT, they're not supposed to handle maths with ease Mr. Green

Hopefully people are educated enough to know that his Narcissistic disorder is what turned him into a killer, not Tourettes or AS. More people need to know about these things so that people with AS don't suddenly get a bad reputation, among people who have no idea what AS is.

"Breivik's mother, Wench Behring, has also described him as being constantly thirsty, a symptom Professor Malt said was frequently displayed by young Asperger's sufferers."

Is there any scientific evidence for that?

When I visit a friend, I always ask for some beer, a coffee or a glass of water. That gives me a point to look at that allows me to avoid to look at other person's eyes in a much more polite way. It's likely that any clever and canny psychiatrist would reach the conclusion that I'm always thirsty Smile

Here in Norway we shake our headsin disbelief when Breivik today received his third (!) diagnosis during the case against him. The court will have to settle with one of them. Most probably the mentally insane diagnosis because he will only receive max 21 yrs in prison if he is sane. When insane you can be put away for life.
