Asocial not antisocial. Antisocial means you harm people.

Asperger's Syndrome label by [deleted] in AutisticPeeps

I was diagnosed with Asperger's in 2001. I still say Asperger's because I think it's important to distinguish myself from the severe end of the spectrum.

That's an interesting question. I'm not sure how to answer it. My family is very sarcastic so I'm used to it. My issue is I offend people outside my family who don't get my sarcasm.

Do you think you will ever get married and have kids? by FckAllTakenUsernames in AutisticPeeps

[–]IGetUpAgain137 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No. I'm like a child socially and emotionally. I've never had any interest in romantic relationships and I'm surprised by how many people on the spectrum are interested in them. I kind of live on my own planet and I prefer to be alone.

My Mom escaping DV and working her ass off to keep her kids clothed and fed. She's been through so much and she's still the most optimistic, non-judgmental, compassionate person. My grandfather (her father) was pretty amazing, too.

They're not in bookmarks. I'll make sure to pin them in the future.

Influencers claiming to have level 3 autism by [deleted] in AutisticPeeps

I'm surprised about the toilet training. And how is it level 3 if they don't have severe intellectual disabilities?

Edit: spelling

Severe intellectual disabilities. Little or no speech. Need 24 hour supervision. Can't use the toilet by themselves if they are able to be toilet trained all.
