again.....it's a bit more complex.You can't cure Autism or Asperger's, but you can mask it fairly well. I was told I had Asperger's (though I took the evaluation on 3 hours of sleep and no Caffeine, but that's beside the point). Learning social cues and basic human interaction were difficult and got me into some trouble at times, especially eye contact. After a few years of practicing and with the help of an unmentionable substance, you would never know that I have it.
It's possible to mask what you have, but it takes time and practice.
the thing is, let me try to explain the little problem with living with it in the first place: you pretty much have to learn it.
It's like, even if they consider 2 people having the same disorder, the chances that they act the same is so low that I wonder why they even try to put names....it's weird.
So, if someone was trying to know how I think....good luck. It's hard when you don't think the same way. it's like you try to figure out what you would expect from an orange while it's in reality an apple, but again, nothing can tell you that it's truly an apple so you still expect the orange and go with it....trust me, it's going to be fairly inaccurate and I even got the prrof.
I passed in elementary school, an IQ test. They knew I had adhd since a long time so, they just wanted to check my behaviour to receive services (which actually helped A WHOLE LOT, but not much have this chances).
I only knew the result at the end of my high school so years after. it's completely messed up, but only partially representative.
According to it, I'm just SLITGHLY above average, but that score is extremely weird because if you check the category, I then figured out what was going on. I had a WAY above average in logic and memories ESPECIALLY audio memories (only 3% of people who passed the test did better than me....now you know why I'm picky on audio quality). Visual I think was only 10-15% of people that did better.
And as for social, way under average.
Result, the score is slightly above average JUST because of the social part.
But if I think about it, it's completely normal. I just enjoy to work with myself so I guess if you expect me to be social....you are going to be disaapointed even though, I'm fine talking like now, it's only because I have interest to.
So, it's just not written on the forehead, but when you say mask....it's more like hiding, because it's impossible to remove it even though I never wish it would be removed from me.
I do did had concentration problem so they got me a medication which did helped, but in the very end, I still feel its effects and I still worked accordingly since I learned about them. The only difference is it's less obvious, but still, it wasn't much in the first place...
And actually, the medication, even then you have to be carefull. I lived a personal experience, it can harm you on long term and it is hard to notice, but just be carefull with it.
So, now you know why I hate 196kbps
