Err, I don't know HOW I felt this was a good idea, but I guess I should explain. I feel that a good amount of posters on LBPC might fall on this spectrum, and I'm curious exactly how MANY. I'm a High-functioning aspie myself... but what about others that fall on the spectrum? Honestly, I feel that posting on LBPC has gradually helped me overcome the disorder a bit... I'm sure a few older posters may remember how I used to act ._. Anyways, shall we?

Sure, why not. I'm an Aspie, I guess high functioning. Assuming that's the end that functions more like a normal human being. I know of a few others. But I won't say. Unless they do. Actually I know of only one. Not sure hes till comes. Meh. Anyway. Yep.

Some of the kids that were at my middle school joked around calling the Disorder A** Burgers Creativity-deprived much? >_>

Yessee, you have another one right here. Not fun in high school, but it's got better as I got older.

I was actually diagnosed with it a few years ago, since then I've found out that it was bullsh*t and I'm not, I've read books on the subject and it's not like me at all. I'm surprised that you all are though, you seem 100% normal.

Reading the symptoms or whatever... It does kind of sound like me a teeny bit. *goes to sulk in a corner*

Simple Aspergers test. Are you on the internet? Have you messed up and done something that has annoyed or upset a reasonable number of people. If the answer to both of those is yes you have Aspergers.

When I was in kindergarten, my teacher had me removed from class, and put in the special ed or some ****. She told my mom I was "A retard" so I was tested, and then put into gifted classes. I have no disorder that I know of, but I have been an *** hole (since age five, apparently) But one of my best friends through Jr. High was autistic in some way or another... On some medication. He had violent outbursts, and attacked our principal with a chair. The principal threw him in a closet and locked the door. I can still hear him crying in there. It was horrible. The principal expelled him and told his mother, and I quote "There is no such thing as autism, your son is a maniac, and a dangerous person" I still can't get that day out of my head.

It wasn't the best school, but they put up with me despite having every right to kick me out during those first few years. My god, was that me ;-; And the other students weren't too hard on me, really. Most of them kinda just ignored me, sure, but I think that's more because I gave off the air I WANTED to be ignored. That's probably true since college is the same way XD I give off anti social signals, so people naturally steer clear away thinking I want to be alone. :/ Ah well.. Anyway, that school never really gave me a hard time, so I'm really glad I went there instead of places like that ;-;

People like that disgust me, It is fine to have opinions... its fine if you DON'T believe in autism, but give kids the benefit of the doubt! Locking him in the closet was just... Unbelievable. Did your friends mother tell the district? Edit - I'm going to high school next year... that Paragraph is making me a bit nervous.

Over in England it's decent, but I think that's because it's not as competitive as in the US. There's no serious defined cliques and it's a little more survivable when you're not popular. I seem quite antisocial as well until you actually make the effort to talk to me, after that I'm fine. But I'm definitely the quietest person in the entire school - unless I'm with my friends, then I'm one of the loudest.

How can you ask what it is like, then say that it is competitive >_> It all comes down to the environment your school creates for it's students. So experiences vary from school to school, not country to country. Btw, I feel sorry for that principle, I have heard a few stories of kids with autism and other problems attacking teachers and students...usually with chairs XD I have little sympathy for a brat in a closet. Attacking a principle with a chair? That is far worse.

He has a form of autism where he perceives threats in everyday environments. He is constantly jumpy and ****. He has to take medication to keep this at a reasonable level. What you are saying is similar to 'That guy deserved to drown because he can't breathe water" it is unreasonable.

What you are saying is similar to 'That guy deserved to drown because he can't breathe water" it is unreasonable. This, just because YOU can handle it, doesn't mean someone with (I assume low-functioning) Autism can. Is it right that he attacked the principle? No, not a bit. I'm not totally angry about the closet, but more the comment. If he didn't say the comment, I could understand. Its simply the fact he showed complete ignorance of the Disorder that scares me for later on in life... I mean, you guys see how I act on this site, several of you didn't even have a suspicion of me being an aspie. In the real world though... I just can't communicate for s*** I try, and its getting better... but its hard to be under the radar in SoCal. Gossip spreads like wildfire. :/

It's just that... You can't throw a kid who is spazing out in a dark closet. He was like... 13. Have the security dudes hold him down, strap him up. Whatever. But not lock him in a dark closet.

What you are saying is similar to 'That guy deserved to drown because he can't breathe water" it is unreasonable. Not at all, that isn't even relate-able to this situation. This is just a very minor form of something that happens all the time. Someone with a mental problems goes out and makes an attempt on someones life, usually in a high standing position, they are caught and have to face the music just like anyone else. Do you really think having a disorder gives anyone a get out of jail free card? This, just because YOU can handle it, doesn't mean someone with (I assume low-functioning) Autism can. Is it right that he attacked the principle? No, not a bit. I'm not totally angry about the closet, but more the comment. If he didn't say the comment, I could understand.

Gossip spreads like wildfire. :/ I wouldn't sweat it, at least in my high school, no one really cares what you have or don't have. As long as you are nice and are good to have around.

A child throwing a plastic chair is hardly an attempt on a 40 year old man's life...

No. It isn't. Telling someone that their disorder is their fault is like telling a drowning man it's his fault he can't breathe. Learn to read better.

It's a massively common misconception that people with mental disorders/conditions are more susceptible to violent outbursts. The facts show that it's a complete misconception. Name any kind of mental disorder - even one traditionally associated with "violent outbursts" such as schizophrenia.... the incidents of violence within that section of society will be markedly less, than say the section of society that partakes in alcohol over a weekend. Violent outbursts specifically caused by a mental disorder are incredibly rare. And if indeed it was a violent outburst caused by a mental disorder - then they should be removed from society, because it's not safe to have them around. (unless of course, the mental disorder wasn't to blame, and they were just acting violently - which there is no excuse for).

No one said his disorder is his fault, I think you need to read more of what people are typing and less of what you think they are typing. I can see we are stark out of valid points. So this little quarrel is over.

And even amongst the incredibly small proportion of people with mental disorders who have a violent outburst - there are normally other factors involved aside from their condition, such as not taking their medication, having a violent disposition, or being drunk

@Mancme Are you really paranoid? I can never tell if you're joking when you say that. Anyway if you are, is towards objects or people?......or both? And can you just sort of shrug it off? Or is it unignorable? (is that a word?)
