Aspergers is a fake disease.

And many of us have ADHD.. A semi "made up" disorder, which is so farrr from Aspergers my mind is blown that somehow people confuse the two?

Soccer moms are to blame!

Its a disorder not a disease you dumb fuck

there must be varying degrees to this 'disorder' .. I don't consider myself as having it, I'm perfectly capable of being sociable with people at work, for example, I just don't want too. I admit to not being socially well adjusted but it's more of a skill not learned to me, and at this point in my life, I don't want to learn it, I don't want to sit around a bullshit, it's pointless. People tell the same jokes and obsess over the same things day after day. It's boring. I don't think I'm better than anyone, I just don't want to be like them. To each their own. I don't need to text constantly and interact constantly to be happy, I prefer peace and quiet. It's one of the reasons I'm here on GLP only in spurts. I think it's called being an introvert, but I'm among the most introverted person I know. Most introverts are still very people focused and admit as such. I am not. I'm focused on the whole forest, not the trees.

And I see the hypocrisy in people, how cruel they can be to those that are different, and that doesn't make me want to 'be like them' more. Of course that's all perception and playing the victim in life won't get a person anywhere, they need to get past the victim role. I openly acknowledge my behavior creates people's perception of me, and I could change, and may change somewhat, but will never be a chronic sit around and bullshit type.

It's not a disease, it's a spectrum disorder.

This.

Parents that don't punish their brat kids and let them run around like crazy monkeys and kissing their ass and giving in all the time is what created this fad. Then they wonder why the kids like routine and sticking to certain interests, they are looking for some fucking ground rules in life they aren't getting from their pansyass parents.

Look up the treatment for ADD from the South Park cartoon

This post has some truth to it, but none that applies to Aspergers.

Technically it is a syndrome, not a disease.

Thats not the point. Whatever it's defined as the point he's making is that he dosen't beleive it exists

Which is absurd. And he confuses it with ADHD, which is even more absurd.

Of course it's made up bullshit it's just categorising abnormal behaviours into a convenient disorder

Its just how the brain is wired

While other men are chugging beer over football and watching porn and wanking their meat.

An aspergers is most likely poring over textbooks and working overtime in a lab.

They have concentration abilities to unveil the meaning of life beyond shitting eating and fucking.

Have you ever worked with someone with Aspergers? And you are right to an extent. Any disorder is just abnormal behavior, or physical ailment. Whether due to genetics, chemical imbalances in the mind or whatever.

And also that dosen't prove anything for someone to say I know somebody that behaves abnormally that doesn't prove that it's because he has aspergers disorder or that aspergers even exists.

Well I wasn't the most well behaved kid (I'm twenty now) And so my mum got me diagnosed with this nonsense and she still beleives in it

ADD is bs. Everyone has it to an extent. Aspergers is not, however.

I was reffering to aspergers not add

Normaly I dismiss anything writen on ED as satire. But there are some articles I've read that I think really hit the nail on the head, and the article on Aspergers is the best example.

Regardless, browse ED long enough and you're bound to find something that offends you. Which is why I have not gone looking for their article on Speach Impediments or Pansexuality.

As someone who has aspergers, I can't say things coherently most of the time, but I am high functioning. I just can't process things at a very fast speed - but if we had hiring going on like we did in the early 2000's I would love to work a full-time job if my employer was willing to work with me, and I might even be inclined to go to school and take out a student loan, but now I know that there probably won't be any jobs. So a lot of people with Aspergers are unemployed right now.

Even people with engineering degrees. People who don't have AS. The last numbers of unemployed Aspies in America was 80% or so I believe. Blue Chips like Walmart are hiring but they're filtering out people with "behavioral disorders" like bi polar, tourettes, aspergers, etc.

I don't believe AS is a disorder - but it really should be treated as one because until we reach a Utopian existence where everyone can critically think, autism will never be treated equally in society. You can see it in teenager's jokes. And in the movies. Whenever someone makes fun of someone they say "What are you, autistic?"

I'm thankful I receive disability because if I didn't, I would be screwed because not even McDonald's will call me back.

For me to poop on .....MInd your own!

I suspect chronic allergy. Do not underestimate allergies power to mess you up. Not talking sneezing here.

POTATOES

We're all missing the point here; Asperger syndrome is not real as a disorder, though it is not the pharmaceutical companies who are responsible for this deviation.
Now, I don't mean to be presumptios; however, I do have an idea of who is behind the epidemic of Aspergers.
It is the king of a fierce countenance.
When a human being displays love of wealth, such as coin collecting (Psalm 10:3), Stubournness and an unrepentant heart (Romans 2:5-8), and deviant eating habits- this could include eating one's excrement- (1 Corinthians 6:19-20), it is a possible sign that Satan has possessed them.
Obviously, on it's own, this is not enough to convince us that possession is the answer, and exorcism the cure.
However, we must remember that we are approaching the end times. The Antichrist and the false Preacher will soon begin recruiting minions to build the army of Satan, and this epidemic could be their work. Remember, guys, that aspergers are usually atheists; and atheism is a harsh attack on god (I think the false preacher may be a certain atheist demagogue who's written a few books and is very popular with aspergers people).
This is, obviously, not conclusive proof of demonic possession, though I think it's worth some consideration.


I'm sure there are exorcists more qualified in this field that we could invite to discuss this matter further on here.



God bless us all in these turbulent times.

Oh, and I am awfully sorry if my above post offends anybody; that is not the intention.
However, the Lord's truth has to be spoken (Acts 10:42) (1 Corinthians 15:1) (Mark 16:15).

Um, I have aspergers. Had it all my life but they didn't have a name for it when I was a child. Some of my mental processes are slow and others extremely fast. I have a lot of empathy for others, especially children, and would love to be social but for some reason, even though I'm nice, easy going and loyal, I can't seem to make close friends. I'm in my 30's now and have all but given up on trying. It's not my fault everyone thinks they're too good for me or something. I'm quiet and withdrawn now half the time because I'm despondent after being "rejected" most of my life. I have a spouse and family. I guess that's good enough. By the way, all aspies are not "fugly." I've always been told I'm very attractive. Though I never really believed it until I've gotten older and watch old home videos and pics. I beleive if I didn't have aspergers I would have been very popular. As it was, I was one of the least popular in school and a couple of boys even snickered at me all the time. Just for walking up to the teacher's desk, etc. so yes I guess I was awkward without even understanding/knowing it. Just feeling inferior all my life but not sure why. It is a relief to get a "diagnosis." It's helpful to understand one's self, no matter what you say.

idiot!

Ooops! Accidentally posted it more than once! Sorry!

It's not your fault at all; you are possessed with a demonic entity- archons, as the ancient Gnostics called them; small, pestlike, creatures which inhabited earth and caused mischief and destruction, like the Djinn of Islamic lore, and you need help.
And I hope you have the best of luck finding a good priest.

That is absolutely spot on. Someone once explained it to me as there being people that they respect, and people that they like... Don't worry about the lack of friendships - I know we're taught that it's bad to be unsociable, but don't believe it. We have different priorities in life, and there is nothing wrong with that - just cherish your family and your hobbies - they're both critical to having a fulfilled life, for us.

And the idiot suggesting that we're possessed by little demons: stop and think for a moment, and you'll realise that what you are saying is pure evil.
