I have Asperger's myself, and I don't consider it a disability. I'm socially awkward, but that isn't a huge issue most of the time. It might be for some people though. [/quote] I think it is a disability if a person can't go out and get a job and interact with people IRL. [/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!
