Anyone may share my letter to people they think it will help as long as they keep my name in the top.
Hellion - I can't do eye contact either. But despite this and my poor social skills, I have passed off as normal to those who don't have a clue what Asperger's is. But everyone is different with Aspergers. Effects people differently. |
People probably don't always know I have aspergers, but it seems many of them pick up on my being 'weird' or think there is something off about me. I didn't even know when I was growing up didn't find out it was a possibility till I was 21 and only recently got diagnosed.
There are however people who don't care about it and thus don't judge about it. But I was tormented throughout school for it...even if I did try to act normal or at least socialize it didn't work and I still got rejected. It probably didn't help that I sucked and P.E class so they could also make fun of me for that...and of course I can come of as slow despite my intelligence, that certainly didn't help.
