Never mind that the current diagnostic procedures would require observation of early childhood speech patterns; I’ll call it Asperger’s anyway.

I Am AspienGirl: The Unique Characteristics, Traits and Gifts

As long as the services you choose, arrange, and pay for are in line with the objectives of your plan, you have control and flexibility with a self-managed plan. A review of the unique combination of traits that lead Neurodiverse individuals to be set up to possibly be involved in toxic, abusive or violent relationships within marriages, with partners, friendships, co-workers, in partnerships, family members or other individuals. She then discusses very common red flags (covert and overt) that toxic people display, including the words, behaviors, and actions to be mindful of. I’m starting to come to the conclusion that I may have Aspergers. I took the AQ, EQ, and Ritvo (RAADS-R). I’m going to omit the numbers but the AQ was within the range. The EQ and RAADS-R were well past the range of the average person with Aspergers. Here are some of the traits I observed that lead me to suspect Aspergers:

But the guy role seems not what I am like at all as an Aspie. Anyway all are different can’t base on one persons aspect on role play conversation. Even the trades people I’ve had who have done a good job have been massively unreliable. Just not turning up for days on end, not being able to come due to a plethora of excuses. Small jobs left at the end of me to sort e.g. carpet bars so it’s an extra hassle once all done. All waste left without prior discussion so I’ve had to move while bathrooms to the tip. I totally agree with you, I am on the spectrum, and I know that I have empathy! Sometimes, I find I even feel more than other of my friends. I think, from the years practice on learning the pattern of how to interact with other people. In fact, I found myself learn more about reading other people’s emotions. Guy: “I am happy. I can pay off my mortgage faster. Look, I’m smiling. Doesn’t that mean I’m happy?”

I found the book useful, but I have to concede that the book is overwhelmingly targeting Asperger's Syndrome, not other folk on the Autism Spectrum. My daughter is a high functioning autistic girl, and has many challenges that differ from AS. And yet the common ground was useful, evidenced by having discussions with my wife on various statements made. This is a good book. I have nothing negative to say about it except that it partly makes the assumption that society is not responsible for its share of acceptance. Diversity should be actively valued by all people. However I completely agree that an Aspergirl cannot wait for anyone to accept her and accommodate her so it is up to her to get what she needs and to take care of herself and to make an effort to "fit in" with the worlds way of doing things. That doesn't mean measuring success to a standard that is not your own however, and Rudy agrees. The overall tone of this book is very empowering and positive. It urges parents to step up to the plate but only after the Aspergirl herself is implored to look within.upvotes Follow Unfollow 2 years ago Dots Created by potrace 1.15, written by Peter Selinger 2001-2017 We really felt the "Harvard Guide" had let us down here. There we were -- left not knowing what my partner's diagnosis was -- even though clearly there had to be something!

My theory of mind has always been off and consequently I find it very hard to gauge social situations (don’t know when I’ve offended someone, or when someone is interested in me, etc.). Modmail must be used for questions or anything else related to the sub. Don’t message us privately or make a post about it.You cannot use our services with this kind of plan since we are not listed as a provider with the NDIS. I believe that this is a large part of why we have difficulty getting along with others. If someone is smiling and saying one thing but psychically we are hearing something completely different, we will get confused and want to run away. This often conflicts with appearances and what others tell me, causing me to doubt my own intuition. I usually turn out to be right. A more cynical person might call it a self-fulfilling prophecy. The misperception of this sensitivity is that we are hard to get along with...paranoid" (40). (I normally wouldn't reproduce this much text from a book, but in this case I wanted to provide as much context as is given in the book.)
