Autism speaks are despicable!. I'd like to see a large group of us sue them under grounds of unfair representation of Autistics, discrimination and bullying. They are a pro eugenics group of crackpots who have the nerve to masqerade as a 'charity'.

| I do this all the time. It is both a blessing and a curse :) . I especially tend to over-analyze people because I get very bewildered by their actions and I try to make sense of them in my own way. A lot of the time, my interactions with others are painfully awkward :( but in a way it is also useful... |

| Even if I were diagnosed with Asperger's, I would not tell anyone I had it. To be honest I am kind of embarrassed to even be posting here. I'm sorry for that but Asperger's is not considered to be a real disease by a lot of people. I believe it is, and I also believe that even if it were a complete... |

And because it took until he was 15 before he got an official diagnosis and I was 38 before I got mine, it points ... |
