No way. I'm not sure if everyone has gone through some acceptance stage... (mine was crying countless nights when I was younger asking myself why it was me that had AS). Rather than taking it negatively, it's shaped my personality, and most NTs take to it very well :). I wouldn't change myself for t...

I think it is also the fault of the school system for not getting a handle on the bullying early on. Luckily, I had parents who got mad and fought when I was being bullied. Some people aren't so fortunate. Still, I would not have thought of hurting innocent people not involved in the bullying. It w...

The one thing I don't understand is why it's labelled as "us" (from the original poster)? I'm not part of grouped called Aspergers Syndrome. It just explains me to why "I'm" different. Although, I must admit, the Media do like to label a group of people because it's easier for everyone to relate to ...

There's many things I'd change about NTs, but unfortunately it's the "tolerance differences in others" I'd have to take. I'm quite new here. I'm very active person in the NT world with working in a good full-time job; all the way down to driving etc etc. Eye-contact was a pain to grasp, but I can un...
