whoswho you are so right. Aspurgers does not make you a social outcast. I get along quite well w/ aspurgers and other folks w/ similar issues. That is what makes friendship so special. The uniqueness of everyone and the gifts you are given. My son cried when we told him he had aspurgers and there was medications to help w/ anxiety and other things. He asked me what I thought? I told him it is a gift, great art abilities, music abilities, math abilities, sport abilities. Look where this disorder has gotten you. If you medicate some of those things away you would not be you. You'd be board and hate life. God gave you the gift of aspurgers, take the ball and run. My son is obsessed w/ sports. He carries a ball everywhere he goes. We have him worked down to a bouncy ball size ball w/ sand in it. So it provides a textile relief he often seeks. He keeps it in his pocket and misses w/ it when he is board, stressed or when ever. But he loves his football made w/ tire tread.

My son would not give up his love for anything and it makes him who he is. He's a blast to be around, he has many friends, and is very outgoing. His aspurgers gets him in trouble sometimes, saying inappropriate things to people, but the world is so full of inappropriate people most folks don't know he has aspurgers.
