the guy who diagnosed me was actually an autism/aspergers specialist who's had quite a lot published on it
I've met a hell of a lot of psychs who know fuck all about autism though. they tend to be the ones who just try to help me by showing me examples of other autistic people who've got married and had kids, therefore apparently I can now magically go out and be normal
If I don't have aspegers then it's definitely something similar, but I dunno what
I think you might be a pure aspie, even if you have something else in addition your aspieness isn't watered down that much. I am a real core aspie, despite a lot of comorbid traits.
I don't feel hatred towards you, I didn't even when you were against me and insulted me. I felt compassion. Same with Lit. I feel like that when it's a real aspie. Same thing on WP. I behaved like a monster but some others, who were mellow and polite in comparison, accepted me anyway. Those were the real aspies. I felt the bond, or kinship rather, with them, the true aspieness.
There's an autist-like state of retardation which usually makes those who suffer from it have difficulties socially, this is frequently diagnosed as AS but in fact it isn't AS. It's as much AS as a mule is a racing horse. Unfortunately, many of these mules believe themselves they have AS while it's just what I would call "autist-like retardation".
