Could Most of us Be on the Autistic Spectrum?

[Winston]

This thing about Wanderer Souls fits me very well too. So why can't I just be a Wanderer Soul rather than an aspie, PAG? Are they the same thing? Why or why not? See below. This definitely fits me to a T too. Or is this just New Age claptrap designed to sugarcoat the aspie condition? lol

[Winston]

Could it be that aspies are just living souls in a matrix populated by mostly organic portals and NPC's (non player characters) who have a hive mind and AI consciousness from the secondary oversoul, like Devin Madgy explains below?

I don't mind being separated from the masses. By now I have no choice in the matter. The deeper I go into the rabbit whole, the harder it is for me to function in society. In a way I feel as if I was never a part of a group. Since the time I was a young girl I saw how children looked at me when I spoke out in crowd. No, it wasn't their facial expression, it was in the depths of their eyes. I saw that look. That look allowed me to understand that I was not one of them. It has always been like this all my life. The only difference now is that I'm not actually trying to blend in with the crowds I run from them. Something has changed in me, drastically. Few years back I was in a very bad place in my life I almost allowed for the darkness to swallow me whole. Then the great change came. It seems as if something cleared the path for me and guided me. I've developed a very intense feeling a craving for the truth. And I have been on this spiritual journey every since. It has led me here."

My new zealander school teacher friend doesn't think i have autism.

[11/16, 5:12 PM] El_Caudillo: I dont think you have autism. I have some autistic students.

[11/16, 5:15 PM] El_Caudillo: Id say you have some traumas which make you defensive and lash out at times and some obsessive compulsive systems when under stress.

[11/16, 5:15 PM] El_Caudillo: Well everyone has problems... But your not autistic

[11/23, 11:10 AM] El_Caudillo: You are not autistic. Autistic people arent expressive. They are quite oblivious to the world around them unless its annoying them. They can learn facts but not process information.

[11/23, 3:10 PM] Winston Wu: Isnt that extreme autism? The autistic people on YouTube talking about it sound very articulate and well spoken. Why?

Arent autistic students supposed to be in special school if theyre extreme? Why in your class?

[11/23, 4:17 PM] El_Caudillo: They can prob be normal talking to a camera but harder in classroom with all the other animals lol

Try the AQ10 test. It's used by UK doctors to refer people to specialists. I score 10/10 lol. I'm looking for a clinical psychologist for an initial consultation.

Autistic people can be very articulate. I occasionally wow in job interviews. However I don't generally like talking unless it's something I'm interested in.

Having now worked with people who have been diagnosed, I don't think I have what some people call Aspergers. I think I have the whole blown thing.

[Winston]

Wow this hot blonde girl in the UK has Asperger's too. Xiongmao maybe u can meet her? Lol. She looks hot with luscious lips and tattoos on her arms.

Introvert or Autistic Quiz! 7 Extreme Differences Between Autistics and Introverts

Introvert or Autistic Quiz! 7 Extreme Differences Between Autistics and Introverts. This is a quiz that you can take for yourself or compare the differences if you are trying to sort out if anyone in your life may be autistic or if they are just very introverted.

These aspie traits are true of me. When I make a plan or decide what to do next, I also cannot change it and am inflexible. Otherwise it throws me off. It's like an obsession with inner order. I have a hard time changing plans too. And I am ultra sensitive to noise too and cannot filter them out.

[Winston]

Mitchell, my friend with mild Aspergers, recommended this book for aspies to understand normal people aka "neurotypicals".

http://www.afieldguidetoearthlings.com/

Book Title
A Field Guide to Earthlings: An autistic/Asperger view of neurotypical behavior

Publisher's Description
Autistic people often live in a state of anxiety and confusion about the social world, running into misunderstandings and other barriers. This book unlocks the inner workings of neurotypical behavior, which can be mysterious to autistics. Topics include the nuances of friendship, dating, small talk, interpersonal conflicts, image, learning styles, social communication, common sense, and white lies.

Proceeding from root concepts of language and culture through 62 behavior patterns used by neurotypical people, the book reveals how they structure a mental map of the world in symbolic webs of beliefs, how those symbols are used to filter perception, how they build and display their identity, how they compete for power, and how they socialize and develop relationships.

Like me, the author of tihs book sees people as a herd of clones too. See excerpt below.

" In the past I have seen NTs negatively as
just a weak-minded herd of clones who waste all
their time pointlessly talking about nothing, but I’ve
begun to see them more positively as a result of
understanding their “wiring.” This book might help
you see what they are doing in a more forgiving and
deeper way, and help you understand why the time
they spend doing those NT things is not actually a
waste. After reading the book, you might be
somewhere (a place you’ve been before) and see
people interacting (like they have before) but you
may see it in a new light. You might recognize a
pattern from the book, and you might stop seeing the
NTs as being so pointless or mystifying."

The Complete guide to Asperger's syndrome Tony Attwood

'An encyclopedia on Asperger's syndrome written in easy-to-read non-technical language. It will be especially useful for helping individuals with Asperger's, parents and professionals understand the social difficulties. There is a good mix of research information, first person reports and clinical information. The section on sensory over-sensitivity is excellent. Sensory issues prevent many people on the autism/Asperger's spectrum from participating in many social activities because stimuli that do not bother most people are intolerable.'
- Temple Grandin, author of Thinking in Pictures and Animals in Translation

'Ten years ago, I picked up a copy of Tony Attwood's Asperger's Syndrome: A Guide for Parents and Professionals. Little did I know it would change me, my family and our lives together. This straightforward, no nonsense book did for me what nothing and no one else in my entire life had ever been able to do. Simply put, it explained the whys behind who I was, and in so doing, it gave me the building blocks that would enable me to become who I am today - a happy and confident, gainfully employed, married mother of three. Now I realize that might not sound like much of a resume, but for someone like me - someone who was not identified as having Asperger syndrome until they were in their thirties - well, it's stupendous. Until I read Dr. Attwood's book, everything about me was in jeopardy of evaporating into the thin air I had spent my life stumbling through. My marriage, my self-esteem, my identity, my ability to form relationships and keep a job - all those things did I barely have a grasp of, even if all the while others thought I had it made in the shade. Dr. Attwood, or Saint Tony as I call him, gave me the strength to come out to the world and admit I was only pretending to be normal. That strength saved my life, of that I am certain. And now Saint Tony has penned a new book and it is extraordinary. The Complete Guide to Asperger's Syndrome is a comprehensive manual filled with useful information, updated research and most importantly, helpful advice and encouragement for those of us who have AS and those who strive to support us.'
- Liane Holliday Willey, EdD
author of Pretending to be Normal: Living With Asperger's Syndrome

'Tony Attwood explores in depth the complexity of the mysterious group of clinical pictures known collectively as Asperger's syndrome, part of the wider autistic spectrum. He describes all the puzzling and fascinating aspects of these conditions and brings them vividly to life with illustrations from personal histories. He emphasises the fact that the individuals concerned have special skills as well as disabilities. Most important of all, he makes imaginative but always practical suggestions for helping people with the syndrome, their families and others who are involved. The author has achieved real empathic understanding of children and adults whose basic problem is a biologically based lack of empathy with others. The book is to be highly recommended for those with Asperger's syndrome as well as for families, other carers and professionals in the field.'
- Lorna Wing

'Tony Attwood's Complete Guide to Asperger's Syndrome is a boon for all those who are confronted by this intriguing condition in their daily lives. It is full of good sense and the wisdom that comes from years of clinical experience, and full of compassionate advice for a host of problems, vividly illustrated by case material. This is a comprehensively researched and beautifully written state of the art review of what is currently known about Asperger's syndrome. I would recommend this volume as essential reading not only to those who want to learn about Asperger's syndrome, or expand their knowledge, but also to professionals who would like to gain a fuller, wiser and richer picture than can currently be gained from any other source.'
- Uta Frith

'I usually say to the child, "Congratulations, you have Asperger's syndrome", and explain that this means he or she is not mad, bad or defective, but has a different way of thinking.'
-from The Complete Guide to Asperger's Syndrome

The Complete Guide to Asperger's Syndrome is the definitive handbook for anyone affected by Asperger's syndrome (AS). It brings together a wealth of information on all aspects of the syndrome for children through to adults.

Drawing on case studies and personal accounts from Attwood's extensive clinical experience, and from his correspondence with individuals with AS, this book is both authoritative and axtremely accessible. Chapters examine:

* causes and indications of the syndrome
* the diagnosis and its effect on the individual
* theory of mind
* the perception of emotions in self and others
* social interaction, including friendships
* long-term relationships
* teasing, bullying and mental health issues
* the effect of AS on language and cognitive abilities, sensory sensitivity, movement and co-ordination skills
* career development.

Zutten jujuttelse, Bippick navven, zeff fjejs, Pedozze.

There is also an invaluable frequently asked questions chapter and a section listing useful resources for anyone wishing to find further information on a particular aspect of AS, as well as literature and educational tools.

Essential reading for families and individuals affected by AS as well as teachers, professionals and employers coming in contact with people with AS, this book should be on the bookshelf of anyone who needs

Apparently, cats have Aspergers too. lol. That makes sense and explains why I vibe with cats and have similar characteristics to them. lol

All Cats Have Asperger Syndrome by Kathy Hoopmann

All Cats Have Asperger Syndrome takes a playful look at Asperger Syndrome (AS), drawing inspiration from the feline world in a way that will strike a chord with all those who are familiar with AS.

Delightful color photographs of cats bring to life familiar characteristics such as sensitive hearing, scampering at the first sign of being stroked and particular eating habits.

Touching, humorous and insightful, this book evokes the difficulties and joys of raising a child who is different and leaves the reader with a sense of the dignity, individuality and potential of people with AS.

This engaging book is an ideal, gentle introduction to the world of AS.

My friend Mitchell told me last night on the phone that if u remember the classic horror movie "Carrie" from the 1970s, starring Sissy Spacek, the protagonist girl with psychokinetic powers had Asperger's too. She looked normal and cute and sweet, but was picked on and ostracized by other girls at school because she was on her own wavelength and didnt vibe with the crowd, which they could pick up on. Shes a classic example of Asperger's.

[Winston]

Apparently, Aspergers has been reclassified in psychology as a mild form of autism and is no longer in a category of its own. Not everyone agrees with that decision though. Here are links about the differences between the two.

Benefits of neurodiversity

Individuals on the spectrum have many abilities. Every individual has their own unique strengths and characteristics that can be acknowledged and celebrated. For example, neurodiversity from conditions such as Asperger’s and autism often have positive characteristics such as:

being able to approach situations differently and think “outside of the box”
strong abilities with systems, such as computer programming and mathematics
creativity
no pressure to conform to social “norms” that may not go alongside their own personal idea of happiness
musical abilities
above-average attention to detail
strong visual-spatial skills
skills in art and design

https://otsimo.com/en/understanding-dif ... er-autism/

Having a developmental disorder can have a great toll on the individual’s life. Since people with Asperger’s have a tendency to be alone due to social difficulties, individuals can feel lonely and isolated.

People diagnosed with Asperger’s stated that they felt like they did not “fit in” when they were in elementary school.

The pressure from typically developed peers also did not help. Some state that they were made fun of due to their differences.

Having unusual interests may distance the individual with Asperger’s from their peers. While everyone is interested in sports or music, the individual may have limited interest in certain topics, such as reading books on certain topics.

The inability to make friends due to these may make the individual feel sad and depressed.

As a result, people with Asperger’s may induce a kind-of self-isolation because they “don’t fit in”; similarly, peers may find them awkward or even rude. Those who experience this type of social isolation are especially vulnerable to anxiety and depression. They may be confused or frustrated, which leads to anger and volatility.
People with Asperger’s diagnosis stated that they were left behind in school as others did not understand or pay attention to their needs.

@hypermak

Alex told me that in Italy, he never heard of the term Aspergers before. Does that mean it doesn't exist in Italy? If so, why? Is it because aspies have no trouble fitting into Italian social culture because it's more open, inclusive, authentic and doesn't persecute intellectuals for being deep or different or logical? Hence aspies have no trouble making friends or fitting in or connecting with others? If so, someone needs to tell the American mental health profession about this, because they never touch the subject of differences abroad or the therapy of going abroad. No one dares to bring it up to them.
