| Hello and welcome. I am almost embarassed about the reception that you have received. Please don't allow the comments of a very small number of members represent the rest of us. I am the parent of 3 children diagnosed (by a pediatric neurologist) with AS and have more than a few characteristics mys... |

| ...(a bunch of antagonistic snipes)... Here's something for you to consider. If negative comments continue to be posted, their posters will likely find themselves without access to the forums. This really is the final warning. I didn't write that, being your shortsighted translation. And it's disho... |

| Has it occurred to anyone that the preceding posts are an excellent example of communication on the Autism spectrum? Children playing so well together.... :lol: New guy - Welcome. Really. We're not a bunch of nasties. We just come across that way sometimes. :wink: No, I think it's more complicated,... |

| Ditto. That it's wise to see a doctor, for all the reasons that were stated, in an attempt to explain why you didn't get the Welcome Basket you hoped for. |

| Hahahaaaaaaaaaaa! Is there an Ignore User function on these forums, anyone? Or perhaps the name of an administrator that I can PM to discuss this thread? Uh oh. What if you are asked to state if your intent was to peddle your music, in your subsequent comment and irritability with being sidetracked... |

| Okay, perhaps you expected a Welcome Basket upon entering a virtual community. But, make no mistake, I doubt in your REAL life that anyone is going to bring you a casserole if you have a nervous breakdown. You'd be lucky if they send you flowers for your hospital stay. Not really a welcome basket, ... |

| No, you don't have to prove anything to me. However, along with what I've mentioned, you might be interested to know some of the co-morbidities can be degenerative and permanent. Also, depending on your age and level of difficulties, there might be certain opportune moments for more rapid brain dev... |

| Go see a doctor Ditto. It has become a Du Jour diagnosis, and media hyped campaign for profit, more than ever before. Not random, go see a doctor. Ah, I see. The two of you are suggesting that I see a doctor so that I can prove to you that I'm a 'real' aspie and not just a late hanger-on jumping on... |

| Are you sure? Seasons, temperature, and scenery change in most places, to some degree. Looking for all that might be different can be daunting, no doubt. It could be a simple matter of a cold or virus coming, and simply not feeling well, trying to fight off an infection. Does she like cocooning in a... |

| brotherandrew, that is a beautiful and amazing story. It gave me goosebumps on my arms. Such a tragedy- yet, your brother died helping others, doing what he loved. His life and death have power and meaning, no? The reason I ask if he might be a Veteran, especially in the US, would be for a fact the... |

| Hi Myrkabah, Welcome to WP. With all of the intelligent and highly creative people we have here you should fit right in. Don't be fooled by some of the reading you've been doing: Asperger's Syndrome is a very real and well documented neurological condition. (I even met a gentetic researcher from Pr... |
