| I don't know whether to believe autism occurs from lack of blood supply or supply of detrimental elements to the baby or not. My mom had severe toxemia with me and other women have toxemia and their kids are NT or appear NT anyway. What are everyone else's thoughts on this? |

| You could have AS or classic autism, but I detect some Obsessive Compulsive Disorder there also. Were you born socially impaired or did you experience any childhood trauma of any kind? |

| I would say that intelligence-wise, females are generally smarter. I don't know if males have less anxiety. I don't think so. I think females can have a lot of anxiety also. I have female and have severe generalized anxiety disorder. Not all Aspies have anxiety disorders but it seems to be common am... |

| No. Except for my weight and anxiety, which I am learning to cope with, I am happy with who I am. Having autism gives me excellent traits a lot of NTs don't have. |

| It seems like they get over illnesses quicker and a nonverbal autistic boy was found alive in the woods after five days with nothing wrong and I wonder if his autism could have played a role in his survival? What is your opinion? |

Anybody else get dizzy and feel like they have a fist clinching them while out and about? Sometimes my appetite is suppressed as well.

You don't have to include your parents here. You can apply right online as well. It's what I did and I've never regretted it. Amber |
