yeah sure
It's pure suffering. An intelligent Aspie will always be in disadvantage to a intelligent normie. Every social interaction is always just awkward and your mind becomes your prison you can't escape from. The only advantage is that you don't bother with being alone most of the time.
Sperganon here.
You can live a life, you can survive, do great stuff even, sometimes. But lots of things are more diffucult, specially social interactions. You don't have filters, it's really difficult to lie and not be discovered spot on and are really naive, that makes you vulnerable. You can even fit in with people sometimes, but it takes deliberate effort and gets tiring. It's not an happy life. But you get sometimes superpowers, wich is fine. And are, albeit sometimes obnoxious, a good and loyal friend
I've tried to tell you a million times you fucking genetic failures, Asperger's is the next evolution of the mind.
In the UK at least you're given a lot more leeway regarding deadlines, work, and such
There's also the higher capacity for your chosen subject
Being a sperg isn't all that bad desu
Please don't be a retard
Basically I have to put 90% of my brain power into being social when I'm around people and it's exhausting.
When I'm working alone on an engineering project I'm fine and barely have to think.
Not sure if it does much for you, but I know that feel. Persist. I spent my whole life being held for a retard because my face doesn't go through expressions correctly or something. Today when I meet people from long ago the thing I most often hear is "I should have listened".

You should have listened to them or they should have listened to you?
>literally me
never got diagnosed tho
Late life diagnosis. 37 now, diagnosed at 35. Been a rough life. Now my family thinks I'm retarded because they are all morons.
you're just an average german
pretty sure i'm not, cunt.
ur special!
You are retarded
Checked and keked
Actually Germans where the most friendly and tollerant persons i've met in my life (i lived 3 years in your country). Most of the times, if you're a foreigner people don't see your weird side. Take some test, mein Freund, it helps
This.

The disadvantages to advantages are very disproportionate.
I just don't ever lie. It's a worthless endeavor, even white lies with good intentions.
I'm comfortable with every social interaction being a disaster now. Roommates are always concerned with my obvious social depravity, but I am more productive alone as I need to be focused and on edge around others.

People always try so hard to make asperger/autism people seem like they’re super intelligent to make them feel better but in reality they’re just awkward and obsessed with one specific thing. And usually they’re not even that smart or educated since they think they’re above learning from anyone but themselves.
What is the different between autism and aspberger?
as i know aspberger is more worse
having autistics traits can bring you sometimes in weird / awkward social situations like
>not understanding they were ironic because you forgot to check their face expressions and their pitch of their voice and taking it literally what they said
>or saying original weird stuff coming straight of your autistic fanatasy and people are surprised about the weird outcome because they seem to never had a thought like this or heard even stuff like this
it costs a lot of focus to play "normal" and through the lack of impulse control you often say stuff you regret or you start to reflect too much at the end of a day
worst thigs happen when im drunk when i wake up the next morning im just ashamed about the stuff i was shouting in the world
Autism is literally being "special". Aspergers are just ordinary people that have weird quirks.
Primarily that spergs suffer no delay in language development and are at least of average intelligence.
It hasn't been a good thing for me at all.
Psychologists gave me the diagnosis to serve as a scapegoat for the cyclical beatings I got for four years of my primary school.
Teachers insisted. It stunted my development, and I don't even know if I have it for certain due to this.
>you aren't very sociable with kids your age user
No shit
>you're really smart user, very intelligent
Compared to those niggers sure
>and you seem to have trouble expressing yourself
If all you feel is anger and anger only gets you in trouble, of course I do
Just a shit experience allround for me.
Not everybody is a poo.
Personal experience ... the social inability can be overcome with some tricks. Not being able to read facial expressions also makes you mostly immune to subtle manipulation and intimidation.
Maybe I simply lucked out. My brain works like I am constantly on amphetamines and I can slip into hyperfocus rather easily ... great for performing tasks, only downside is total loss of awareness for your surroundings. Also an information addict.
Wrong. Asperger's syndrome is sometimes referred to as "high-functioning autism." People with Asperger's are much more successful at social interactions, and some true autists are unable to act at all except in very certain ways, i.e autistic idiot savants
>tfw half of your life memory is blurred and foggy cuz Adderall

You're weak and stupid t. opium addict
Same here. Only way to shut down all the stray thoughts that keep you from sleeping (mostly my issue). Although I do prefer CBD heavy cultivars, THC simply makes me either hungry or horny.
youre not the only one
started with it in 2014 after i finished my training
since then i blaze it daily
tried to cut it off several times - longest streak were 3 weeks sober always came back
as i know MJ is the only drug which interrupts mind control / MK ultra
it blocks the "crazy" thoughts and makes me calm
i could never stand being around my sister because everything about her - the way she talked and laughed, her failure to understand my jokes, and her self-centeredness - all infuriated me. I realized a couple years ago that she probably has undiagnosed asperger's.
Everyone I know has also been slightly annoyed by her, even my parents, who refuse to believe she has any type of condition. The only person who doesnt seem to mind is her boyfriend, whom I suspect is also an aspie.
Tell me aspie anons, are people with asperger's attracted to other people with asperger's?
>mind control
If only drug addicts are free from mind control, why are sober people not all controlled?
If only weed blocks it, why am I not affected?
Stop making excuses for your degeneracy. You should not need a drug to make you feel okay, and if you feel that you do there are other options.
Just don't accept medical help from a kike.
Also, do people with asperger's take all the shitposting on Jow Forums literally?
>failure to understand jokes
>self-centered
>weird laughing
Pretty sure she's a woman.
Yes. Girlfriend shows many symptoms herself. Rather rare in women, seems their genetics somehow dampen the symptoms in most cases. Says she can 'read' facial expressions which I am incapable of ... though I suspect she may have simply have very good observational skills and does so cognitively instead of instinctively.
Only when they are not forced to be together.
>more leeway
In what context? Elaborate please I'm asking for a friend

Autists are coddled and made to feel intellectually superior in order to help them cope with the fact that they barely function in society.

I have it and overcame it, I blend in with society fairly well, aside from the fact that I come across as an asshole (because I give no fucks about others feelings). Most people I meet and converse with have no idea that I have aspergers.
I always loved annoying guys like you. Sorry, must be some kind of diabolical streak mixed with outright hatred for all the normies and their stupid decisions messing up this world...
Same here. Personal question if you don't mind ... do you have a rather massive jaw and/or pronounced brow ridges?
s-sorry
Nope.
This is exactly what I meant, thanks for proving my point. You’re not some special intelligent guy who sees past all the bullshit of normies. We all do, you just act like a dick about it because nobody likes you.
I for one am tolerated more than others to a certain degree because I'm not as capable of judging moods of conversations, I can't read facial expressions properly, I often use so-called "offensive" words because I don't care all that much for peoples' interpretations of words and I also stammer because of nervousness
As long as people are aware that I'm retarded they give me some slack because they know I can't help it
My sister works in a school for retarded kids, in the secondary years. There's a boy who, when he gets angry, charges at any female he can see, and has to be held down by multiple security guards. Tard strength is a real thing
It’s okay leafbro, if it makes you feel any better nigs are way worse than autists. At least autistic people care about something beyond apehoop and hip hop music.
I have actual autism (was nonverbal until 7) and I have neanderthalic physiology. My facial structure is comical due to the features you mentioned
It sucks growing up. I couldn't understand other people so I shut everyone out. Had zero real friends. Until late highschool where getting a job forced me into social interaction. The strange upside is because I had to teach myself how to read social cues, Vocal tones and body language. Now its like I'm hyper aware of it all. I guess because I have to consciously process what other people do unconsciously I'm able to see things they miss. Now it makes me very good at reading people even if I don't like interacting with them.

WE WUZ MENTATS!
fuck off
I went to special education with nothing but spergs, ADD/ADHD guys, and I can count the amount of times that re rioted due to mental deficiency on one hand.
The main reason we rioted was banter. Sheer fun and banter. It's not so much seeking the limit of what the teacher will tolerate, because we knew the teachers tolerate way too much.
Only twice did I see a guy go apeshit for not being able to handle the situation, one time because me and another guy were playing a wordpuzzle and didn't wanna let him join in halfway, and another time because the teacher told him to wait with his question.
Then again the way the teachers kept insisting we're special when we knew we were broken did depress at least me, possibly a few others. The older we got, the more evident the bullshit story became.
How is to be a real autist? Can you drive a car and be responsible for yourself?
*crickets*
Exactly, getting a job that is heavily involved with socializing really helps one how to socialize. I worked at a movie theater for two years (before quitting to move onto a Call center which payed 3 times as much). It helped me interact substantially. In High School I was a socially awkward loser, after working in a movie theater, and call center I've become quite social, have a group of good friends in which I've red pilled, and have been in several longer term relationships over the years (I consider something long term being 6 months or more, I get sick of most women before then). On top of that I have the advantages of Aspergers which is increased IQ (152 on stanford-binet test), increased focus (on topics that interest me, which pretty much everything does), etc.
Nah, I'm rather smart. I even started out as a very nice child in the beginning, treating everyone friendly ... but soon noticed that if you do not perfectly blend into the crowd they will automatically start to despise you. This is were I started to despise them too ... an important lesson in human nature I'd say.
I still see it as my duty to contribute to the betterment of humanity as a species ... but if someone slights me there is no holding back anymore.
mfw 4 random anons on Jow Forums have called me autistic without even talking about autism in the thread.
autistic shit below
when i was a child i didnt react to my name being called. it happend to the point i had to go to a doctor and check my hearing. no problems with my hearing.
in 9 grade i was talking with a theacer and 5 other people. i said the same sentance 7 times. it was "im just gonna sit and relax" the theacher pointed that out. i still had a urge to say the same sentance. i just walked away with. it was socially painfull.
i am not diagnosed, but i was diagnosed with ADHD when i was 3 and when i was 13 they said it was a misdiagnose.
Maybe when you put them all together in one place they tolerate things better. The main problem in public school was the autists inability to deal with anything out of the ordinary, they also held everyone else to a super high standard but could barely function themselves. Like they would refuse to complete assignments but would freak out if daquan also refused to do it. Also the autists felt like they were the arbiter of righteousness and justice for some reason and everyone should be beholden to their whims. Idk man I don’t have anything against autists personally, they just suffer in a group setting with normies.
Driving is difficult but I can do it if I have to. It is really exhausting. I don't own a car and my license has been expired for like a year I think
I live alone and financially independent but I struggle to hold jobs. I live very cheaply and have to survive on rice and beans if I'm going to afford rent
Brain damage
Autists are the philosopher kings of the world. Born and destined to rule.
Interesting. Some genes which are linked to Asperger's seem to be adaptions to a hunter-gatherer lifestyle ... but these genes interact in rather complicated ways with other human gene variants. Maybe the varying degree of disability stems from this, you either have a 'functional' set of Aspie genes or have a mix with some incompatibilities.
You have a point there. Other “normal” children are very cruel to autistic people on average.
i have never had brain damage
Used to, cured it tho :p
>thread about autism
>half of the posters are german
I began despising normies when I moved to St. Louis and was forced to interact with niggers who were bussed in from the inner city, and the fact that everyone treated them as equals when they were clearly intellectually inferior, and violent in nature. I lived in Northern Nevada before that where there were very little niggers (though alot of wetbacks). I went from a city that was largely politically apathetic, and racially conscious, to a progressive hellhole, and I couldn't stand it. Even though I can now blend in well with normies (aside from the fact that my superior intellect shows, and some despise me out of envy), I truly hate them.
You were born with it
Adderall was licensed in Germany? Unless you use illicit means to acquire it?
It was never licensed in England and as such is extremely expensive on prescription.
Yes. I think that is the reason why many turn out as assholes. Mostly this cannot be avoided, not possible to 'wrap those guys up in a protective blanket'. I've tried to overcome this acquired contempt as it mostly only makes you miserable. I do also recognize that some of my symptoms which may seem 'harmless' to me can annoy the crap out of others. Really, best thing for Aspies would be to keep their distance to the rest of society ... it is for the benefit of both groups. Lock them up in a lab or some other place where they can use their talents for something productive.
Hi. Same here. Not being open about this issue in everyday life, but if I mention to someone closer to me that I'm in fact little bit weird like this mostly because of autism , nobody fucking believes me because on average I can interact appropriately. Fucking ey. You can learn how to interact or how to read social cues the min difference is - just like you mentioned, you basically constantly aware of it, it takes way more effort and doesn't feels natural at all.
No.
I'm not angry brother. I know the struggle has been harder for some than others. I wish you the best of luck in life
>The only advantage is that you don't bother with being alone most of the time.
Most aspergers are extremely addicted to social interaction. Even if it isn't direct toway communication, they absolutely crave the social products of other people. They will constantly watch movies, read books, articles, etc.
Put an asperger into the wild and he will go fucking crazy. Probably start picking up sticks and pretend they are his friends, making little stage plays with them.
Aspergers do not function being truly alone.
fuck off
when i was born i was born blue because of low oxygen. but my parents, psychologist and doctor have never mentioned that i have had brain damage because of it or anything else really.
You can get a prescription for similar dextroamphetamines even in Finland. Mostly they will just give you methylphenidates, which I think is pretty useless.
no, that is autism, if you have high IQ you have a sense of humor and know that humans are of the great ape family and thus behaves accordingly. spergs are just people with high IQ there is no mystery, autistic neckbeards on the other hand...
I always wondered if the emotional peculiarities of Aspies do entail some inherent xenophobia ... awareness of the possible threat from outsiders. Again the hunter-gatherer hypothesis in a way. I've noticed myself that I am somehow instinctively repulsed by 'foreigners' ... I do not even think it is the skin pigmentation, there are a few black people where don't get that feeling. It must be something else that triggers me ... maybe some type of body language I am more aware of as my brain does not waste capacities on facial recognition that much.
Do autistic people use facial cues themselves?
>I behave normally irl and can read social cues I totally meet the clinical criteria of autism
God I hate discussing this topic so much
The curse is to be a normal.
But wimps will tell you otherwise and cry foul play, which easy for me to say when I'm the bully type.
As long as I can keep my bubble, I'm happy.
>isolation-induced objectophilia
Well, I tend to mentally create dialogue partners when alone
This, both a gift and a curse, that thing
Yes but I think they are not good at it ... I do not notice it myself but many people have told me that my facial expressions sometimes look 'weird' or contradictory ...
Fucking nazi
Same. I got diagnosed at the age of 7 because I wasn’t doing my math schoolwork and just wandered the halls because fuck addition and subtraction. They made me socially retarded by isolating me from general population and made me feral by feeding me amphetamines and other poison like tic tacs. And when I say feral I mean torturing bugs and killing small animals. I wasn’t alone though. They did this to a lot of people primarily from poorer social statuses. Why would people purposefully perpetuate children’s ailments? Because they get extra federal funds for special education programs like IEPs(usually eight times the income of normies) and EBD. Administrators love pay raises so it’s an issue I don’t see ending soon especially when there’s a web of corruption through all parts of the system like in my town.
As an actual aspie, no. Because any of these enhanced aspects that benefit us pale in comparison to the losses due to lack of ability to socialise.
Pretty much any walk of life to become successful relies on the ability to be likeable, to socialise with others, work as a team, or empathise/lead others which is something actual aspies (not ooh I don't have friends im autistic) have issues with
