Anonymous Coward User ID: 18432713 United States 06/21/2013 08:08 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Now, I am just an AC here, but in real life I have a job working with kids, a significant number of which have been diagnosed by "qualified professionals" as having a disorder such as high-functioning autism or Aspergers. Honestly, it's total bullshit. If you are not crapping your pants and eating shoelaces, there's nothing wrong with you that is not fixable with EFFORT. Most of the behavioral issues I see with kids has a lot more to do with PARENTING than it does with a defect in the child. If parents treat their kids like they are unteachable nose-picking mouthbreathers, then they will become that. If they treat a heavily Downs Syndrome kid with REAL disabilities like a normal kid, they will turn out really normal. If you think you are fine, you probably are. |

Quoting: CocoNutFlake Does your disease make you miss 10 or more days of work a month? I can't get a job. At least not one that requires interacting with other people. Which is all a job really is. Talking to your boss, talking to coworkers, talking to whoever, etc. I can't even go to a store and buy something for myself without having a severe anxiety attack. It's not that I'm talking to somebody either. It's the stimulation. All of my senses are magnified. Which is why I have a photographic memory. Lights give me insane migraines. Every sound is louder to me than it would be to someone else. Every taste, every feeling, every emotion is enhanced beyond a point that is bearable. By the time the guy says, "Do you want a bag?" I can't even think of what to say because it's just painful being there. Nostradamus Century 1: Quatrain 50 From the water trinity will be born, One who will make Thursday as his holiday.

If they treat a heavily Downs Syndrome kid with REAL disabilities like a normal kid, they will turn out really normal. If you think you are fine, you probably are. You've almost got that right, but what you don't understand is that there really is something wrong with the brain physically. It has nothing to do with behavioral issues, because I am completely peaceful until I am in PAIN. Like anybody else when my body is enduring something painful it has fight or flight instincts. For someone with a sensory disorder like AS being able to control any part of your body at that point is almost impossible. It's as natural as a reflex. I was always treated as a normal kid up until I really started have trouble being able to handle the world around me as a teenager. When I was young I had all the same issues, and I can remember them. I remember being 2 years old because of the photographic memory. Something most people cannot remember. I remember having a sleeping disorder my entire life. I remember being in crowded places and feeling like I was dying. I STILL feel like that. I can't even go to malls without experiencing that. I honestly wish I could shop in a store without someone asking if I needed help!
