I have to do a behavior thing for health and wellness I was going to do it on Asperger's and traits related to that but he mention the following in an email. "I help you narrow your criteria with a health assessment once class gets started. Any ambiguity regarding you topic will hopefully be cleared up after taking the assessment."

I'm worried about doing this health assessment. I don't want to have to do it on one specific behavior that I don't want to do!! !! Classes start Aug.30th so I have over a month to think and worry about this assessment thing!! ! I'm not even sure what this assessment will say about me either! Any ideas? Thanks. (probably shouldn't be so worried but curious what it might pin point on I'm VERY private and don't want to have it find X issue when that is no ones business and something I'd NEVER want to write about!! !

Well, you could always lie. I think that's the normal response of students to idiotic projects.

If it's just a sort of project, where you have to 'fix' a behaviour and write about it, make one up. Bear in mind, most of your year is probably NT, so they may just be looking for something as trivial as 'I will try to get up earlier in the mornings' or 'I will try to do 20mins of exercise a day'- don't give away your innermost secrets.

LOL! That reminds me I had to do an autobiography once for Psychology class she wanted "Your first bike ride" *insert something stupid IMO* I wrote I was born X day have Y health problems Z behavior problems and these are my birth/toddler/school/child/adult life experiences up to this point. (4,000+words later was supposed to be minimum 3,000) LOL! Ya I go to far sometimes. LOL!
