[quote:Anonymous Coward 27270668:MV8yMjcwMDc2XzM4NzMxNTU0X0Y3M0VGMTU0] And i find it funny how people in this thread got all insulted because people are supposed to get insulted if they hear that term? Get over yourselves. I as not using the term in any derogatory way, using it to describe that the term is NOT used any more. It just so happens that yes, autism is one of the diagnoses that has replaced "MR". [/quote]

Guys, listen. I have autism. I think critically. I have a photographic memory, and over a short period of time I can absorb something logical fluently.
Somehow I am disabled! I see people as truly equal, yet every Joe that doesn't like the way I am talking to them hates me. I accept people the way they are, but I am not accepted as I am. I am completely happy with myself, I understand why I am the way I am, and I know who I am.
Seemingly somehow this is a disability. My brain is not neuro-typical. Yet I don't see anything wrong with myself!
Everything is right, and I don't regret anything in life. I would not regret one thing because I might not otherwise exist in the world.
Got a picture for you all so you can see how happy I am!
