| (Yes, I know I made a post about this in another thread; this is simply a thread for those of you who haven't read it and have any thoughts and feelings towards such infractions) And now here sparks the question... does anyone else here have it besides me? Or know someone who has it? Or even took the time to try to help them out? If so, this is the place to tell about it. Autistic people are the forever sad faces of this world we live in today. People who qualify as such look at the world as their own playground to shed tears and let out their emotions and hatred, and are looked at by other people in a whole different way. I mean, let's face the facts: autistic people do not want to be autistic, they did not choose to be autistic (rather, they were born autistic), and they just can't change themselves for the better of their surroundings. Whenever something only somewhat bad happens to them, they may get angry, make excuses, point fingers and blame other people for what happened, and that's only one of their sad characteristics. But when something REALLY bad happens to them, something that they feel that they can never get over, like someone they loved laying them off for someone else in the midst of a developing relationship (which they most likely needed help with since they normally do not have very consistent social skills), ie me, they act like it's the worst thing that's ever happened to them even knowing that there were plenty of other really bad instances that occured to them earlier on in their lives, and they shy away from any involvement with the process for a really long time, afraid of being emotionally hurt again when the tides of life close in on them once more (ie: in this case, talking to other girls and trying to start a different relationship). Austic people often behave rather abnormally at these kinds of things, and will send the most emotionally-distraught complaint to whoever it may concern (or may not remotely concern, rather) the first chance they get. They abuse their right to express free will, knowing that it will make them look bad and immature to people paying close attention to their pleas, yet they don't seem to care and can't fight the agony that forces them to express themselves in this way. They like to think to themselves that they are lousy, pathetic no lives and make no effort to make their life better and more enjoyable for themselves, thinking that they can't because they themselves don't think that they are very well accepted into this world one way or another (that's the way I felt when it came to girls acceptance when my last love-interest blew me off and decided that she wanted to be with someone else, and right at the last minute, too), and because of this, they have to strout around, hoping that people will look after and respect them for who they are, thinking that they're "cool" or "hip" or whatnot. They may not know that people who act in similar ways are autistic, but with enough instances like this, it's very pleaseable to form a conclusion that they are and, while they may seem and act like nice people on the outside, there's just no stopping the emotional demons that haunt them day and night from inside of them, the ones that force them to make haunting decisions (like flipping someone off and/or cursing and yelling at them when angry) whenever things are so unfavorable of them, that they just don't care what consequences will soon follow. They see the world in a different way, they see it as their own playground, they remain sad and depressed for the rest of their lives, and feel like throwing it all away, just hoping that they will soon drown within their tears that they shed so that they don't ever have to feel sad, depressed, or often times angry, ever again. When putting all of these things together, it's rather sad to think of autistic people. Someone who knows an autistic person might try to help them, yet knowing that their advice will not make their lives any better, as if anything ever would. Autistic people are nearly-impossible to cheer up whenever they are feeling down, and they just feel the need to whine and complain about it even if it forces other people to have second thoughts, and with that said, I'm sorry if my posts on this board are sometimes whinny and immature when I'm feeling sad, or mouthy and bitchy (as in badmouthing other board members or even real life people) when angry, but also take the time to consider this: like every other autistic person known to man, I do not want to be autistic, I did not choose to be autistic, and I'm afraid there's nothing I can do to change that aspect of myself. And Mods and Admins, I say this to you: if for whatever reason I EVER feel the need to post things like that (which, judging by the description of what an "autistic" person is, seems inevitable), planned or unplanned, and you feel like a temporary ban might be sufficient, then by God do it. I'm not actually BEGGING to be banned or anything, I'm just saying that it just might all be a matter of me needing time to cool my jets is all. There, consider that a confession well spoken of. Now that I got that off my chest, I feel a little bit better now. (edited by Seph2k4 on 08-17-05 12:12 AM) (edited by Seph2k4 on 08-17-05 12:12 AM) |

Not to troll or anything, but I keep getting lost in that really big paragraph you posted. (I keep losing my position and having to find it again.) Could you edit it and split it into two or three paragraphs? Thanks.  |

| They also take things MUCH more seriously than normal people (most of the time, anyway), as well as much more easily intimidated by things. Whenever things like some girl I like rejecting me and/or going for some other guy when I'm holding talks with her occur, I label myself as an all-around ugly person and feel like I want to kill myself. And when autists get angry, they just wont take shit from other people. They'll just get up in a rage of frenzy and make a quick, brude reaction even if it makes them look bad around other people. Happens to me all the time whenever someone pokes fun at me. I'm not saying there's anything wrong with being autistic, but at times, it isn't exactly the best thing that could happen to a person, either, and because of this, I can't stand being called "stupid" for something I do or did. The word, coupled with my name, or the word "you" in reference to myself literally OFFENDS me. Why? Because I'm autistic and I can't help it if I sometimes talk unclearly, stutter while talking, or act funny or whatever. I'm not saying that ALL autistic people are like this, I'm just saying: don't judge a book by it's cover. That's like hating on someone just because they're black whereas you may be white or Asian, only you can actually tell that they're black just by looking at them. You can't know that someone is autistic on first sight. It doesn't work that way at all.

| On autism: My friend's younger sister is as doctor's say "a low-functioning" autistic child. She is 11, and cannot understand the world around her as she "should". She is a lovely girl with a definite personality, but she cannot communicate and is prone to hurt herself. It is really hard for her family  |

| Truly, I thought there was more to autism than lack of communication skills, one of the things that I've forever suffered from thanks to this special case of autism here that I have. Yes, these are all notable cases of autism (lack of communication, problems with speech, depression, etc) but the biggest ones which come to mindset are anger/depression/emotional problems, mainly anger problems (for me, at least). For instance, there was something that happened today that really pissed me off just thinking about it, and I get the feeling that I'll grow even more angry about it by the time today is out if it turns out as I think it will (or by tomorrow, in other words). I'd go right ahead and tell you what it is, but you'd problably think I'm a whiny little bitch if I did. Let's just say it's simply a matter of a someone, a very special someone, or very special someoneS, not doing their job which may cost me something I've wanted for quite some time. There's also this one OTHER thing that's really bothering me right now, which would more or less be considered "whinny" in the form of a text message or post.

| I think tht you are being a bit stereo typical. I'm autistic (have Asperger sydrome to be precise) and to be perfectly honest I would rather have it tan not. Your logic seems to be way higher and so does IQ. And I am always considered to be a happy person so to be honest I don't agree with you one bit. | |||

| I have very little knowledge regarding autism. The only person I know who has been diagnosed with it is utterly unable to take care of himself. Reading this leads me to think there may be other things wrong with him; he must be attended by another adult (his mother) at all times, including using the restroom and eating a meal properly. Are there vastly different degrees of this condition? This person I speak of -does- seek attention in any way possible, including repeating the same statement until he gets a response and constantly asking for apologies, both before and after he's done something 'wrong.' He's actually fairly competent with a computer...which might be why he's on his so much. |

| I don't know much about autism.. I have a close family friend that works with autistic children for a living, and I admire her for it. There are variations and many levels of seriousness of this condition.. it depends on the person. That's to the best of my knowledge... correct me if I'm mistaken. | |||

| Sorry to hear about that. I have the OCD, so I don't how you feel exactly, but not very far from it. I know how it is to always question yourself about everything, the lack of trust, constant fears... One day at a time. From what I saw, you seem to be a good guy none the less. The sister of one of my friend has autism, it's sad |

| If I may, I'd like to interject an additional area of discussion into this topic. More children are diagnosed as autistic today than ever have been before. Why do you think this is? Is autism increasing in frequency, whether it be due to extrinsic or intrinsic factors? Or do you think it's because we're simply more able to spot mild cases? Perhaps is the definition of what constitutes autism broadening? Or do you have your own theory? Please, share your thoughts (specifically those of you who have autism in some form). |
