the questions they ask is what ive been experiencing all my life. growing up, i knew something was wrong with my learning ability. i had teachers who wanted to put me in a special class without even testing for at least ADD/ADHD or dyslexia. of course, nobody ever heard of asperger in the 90s. my own parents felt those learning disability test were a way of "keeping the black ppl down and the school used it for their own purpose." just stupid **** that came out of their mouths mostly my mothers'.
i had teachers who were very impatient with me always left it into arguments between them of me being punished or them calling my mom to explain. i told my mom how i was being treated by the teacher all she told the teacher on the phone (never went up to the school) how if she talked to me slowly and let me learn, then i can do it.
i told one teacher i believe i have a learning disability issue and this teacher disregarded it and she said something i said how do u know? u dont know what i go through when studying/reading any material(s) and how frustrating i am at it. the teacher got mad when i said that i said its the true ur brain isnt mine!
it got worse in college my grades were average not albert einstein. im 26 and still have a problem with doing anything. the quiz i took was really interesting i have been rereading the results and would like to take it a "shrink." the problem is i have no job still looking for a job. state insurance is so ****ed up and confusing they cut out everything almost everything since obama got in office. god who knows what the state insurance will pay and won't pay!
when i was in college, they didn't have a psychological testing center to test any learning disablities u had to do that out of ur own pocket outside of school. i've been out of college for 2 yrs now and it is driving me crazy...

to be quite honest, this sound more like ADHD or ADD, in my opinion. I have apergers and im rather high on the scale. :/
People here can now really dx you. As i have been told for other vaiose things. If you contact you gp im sure they can help you get dx if that is what you want.
maybe you ould tell up more about yourself which may help us gather weather you may or may not have it? But we can not give you a dx ourselves. dissapointing i know. we are not actuall y here for aspergers but if you feel the need to ask questions or what ever people like to do : P feel free to drop us a pm/comment
take care - atrus
