You dont overcome aspergers. Its who you are and how your brain functions for the rest of your life. There is no known cure for it and no amount of counselling will alter it. You can hide it but never overcome it. I know because i've got it.

Edited by z3phyr IV: 8/10/2015 1:43:17 AMWho are you to tell him he hasn't overcame his AS? It's quite disgusting of you to judge his progress, nor is it your place.

You're one of the people who call cops racist for shooting back at armed thugs
-
You must be 16 cause that was so ridiculously irrelevant, not to mention untrue. If you didn't notice all I've been doing is defending respectful guardians trying to boost a guys confidence.

What..

Edited by Loyalpayer: 8/10/2015 5:31:13 AMIts impossible to overcome read up on it. You can learn to live with it but theres no cure.

Find a single comment where I said it was curable... at most I said one can overcome some of it with mental training. But I still invite you to find that, I've only defending the people giving props to people.

Edited by VisageOfAnAngel: 8/10/2015 6:01:16 AMMental training? Bloody hysterical. Let me explain it to you in a very dumbed down fashion. People with Aspergers are socially and culturally retarded. We speak "off the cuff" from mostly scientific observances because we're not that good with emotional/empathetic stuff. You can explain a thousand times to someone with Aspergers that a situation or a comment is socially unacceptable and, yeah, eventually the person will pick up on it most of the time but only in that specific situation. If the situation changes (amount of people (we're not good with people), environment, socio-political climate, gender or age majority, etc.) then we will not pick up on why it's fine in one and not in another. We will then get frustrated and (usually) the younger ones will lash out. There is no "getting over it" or "growing out of it" or "mental training" because our brains do not function the way a "normal" brain does. Personally, I prefer the way my brain functions because I see it for what it really is instead of having to hide behind some ridiculous politically-correct non-sense--i.e., what you're trying to do right now--and can see things based solely on facts.
-
I'm sorry to have offended you but I won't apologize for defending people only trying to show respect.
-
Lying, or perpetuating a myth such as "overcoming" a genetic disorder, is hardly "trying to show respect." The OP is doing the exact opposite of "trying to show respect" by lying about having a debilitating disorder just to get attention.
-
Im telling you its impossible to overcome or cure you're defending him on that point. Its not disgusting pointing that out its a fact.
-
you can overcome. just get help VERY, VERY early, msybe in the teen years. you can train to actually LEARN how to be social. you may still be a bit retarded at some points but for the most part you CAN overcome it. i have, my friend wasnt so lucky
-
"..but may have extremely poor social and communication skills." So what your telling me somebody with Autism can never overcome these symptoms to have regular social interactions? Give your head a shake.
-
A.) Aspergers isn't part of the autism spectrum anymore. B.) If they are a low-functioning autistic the answer is no. If you're non-vocal you're not going to speak. If you cannot make eye contact (common with Aspergers) you will not make eye contact and when you do it comes off as incredibly forced and creepy so you stop doing it because you're afraid you look like you're staring and don't want people to think you're strange.

Edited by Loyalpayer: 8/10/2015 6:01:44 AMI said it cant be cured or overcome but that you can learn to live with it. So stop talking nonsense and making yourself look silly.
-
I will forever look silly defending respectful people if I have to.
-
Edited by Loyalpayer: 8/10/2015 6:28:27 AMThats your choice. While your at it put a clown costume on and pomp a horn.
-
... because it's a genetic disorder. The only way to "overcome" Aspergers is if somehow you could rewrite chromosomes. This is something that we cannot do yet. Quit playing the white knight about something you do not understand.
-
Maybe if you weren't being so out rightly arrogant about people trying be respectful then people won't try and be a "white knight" (is that the same as having compassion and empathy? I'm not quite sure)
-
Not arrogant; blunt. It's part of the disorder actually and if you knew anything about it you would not be wildly insulting people who are calling out this child pretending to suffer from it.
-
I am not insulting you... or anybody... as far as I'm concerned being rude to other people warrants somebody telling you you're in the wrong, at the very least. If you are at the place with your AS that you seem to be, power to you, but belittling other people's lives is no way to empower yours.
-
Kids today like to pretend they have something wrong with them... attention and all.

well i know to not take that seriously 'IAmNotATroll'
