How would you know if you were an Aspie or not?

I'm guessing 1 in 10 NZers are somewhere quite near.
Koreans may be 1 in 5
Yanks 1 in 7
Samoans 1 in 30 [half castes 1 in 3]
Maori [because of interbreeding with retards from england] 1 in 5
Honkies who breed outside their culture are most likely, apart from low functioning types who may not breed at all

I'm English and married a Scot so that may explain a few things. My mum was over at new year and she was concerned that my middle kid is mildly autistic. I've had similar thoughts myself, but then again she's only 7.
As for me. I could give a fuck. I am what I am, a diagnosis isn't going to mean a thing.
Cheers for the info.

Early detection is key to wellbeing......... just keep her away from the system is all.
Lots of greens and socialists are near, as well as scientists and engineers and MOTORCYCLISTS
Youtube aspergers girl and watch some of the vids of teenage girls [some are nice looking!!] you will pickup on the vibe and see correlation or not
many art school girls around here in grey lynn and k road are near the spectrum
aspies migrate to this suburb to be around their own
I came here subconsciously 20yrs ago....

I've got an eye open... but I've seen a lot of shitty kids over the years, I were one, and understand that even the "normal" kids can be exceptionally cunty... and to be honest, like most of them, they manipulate situations to their own ends so it'll likely be hard to tell. The big ? was that she really didn't handle change well for the first 18 months of school. But that's sorted.
Friends of friends have a diagnose 19yr old Aspie and to be honest I get on with him fine and don't really get the vibe that he's socially awkward.
Will have a google later though.
Time to go home![]()

Fuck ... hard core Aspies tend to drive me fucking insane ... especially the hyper ones ... I'd move if I was you ...
Quite some time ago (talking years here ..) I decided it just wasn't worth the hassle of letting all my shit happen ... like my inbuilt OCD drive for neatness ... I could either go insane trying to keep everythig in its place ... or say WTF .. just cruise ... and that's the option I took. My work desk used to be covered in so much stuff and I only ever cleared it off when it fell on the keyboard and I couldn't type any more .. people used to ask "why don't you keep your desk clearer?" But for me the options were either a total mess or a rigidly controlled desk where I would make sure, with a ruler, that everything was exactly right ...
I refused to let the OCD loose .. so I had a mess of a desk ..
But what happened was that everything else just seemed to disappear .. I could actually cruise and not get frustrated about stuff .. not try to force everything into what I wanted ... not freak out because the pattern was broken, or the timetable went off ... or the routine was not there .. you know this stuff ... But refusing the let my OCD loose somehow changed things internally ...
I don't know what the hell happened ... but it worked and I'm still sane (well, relatively) and functioning ...

My Son was diagnosed with reasonably mild Asperger's , with a couple of other things to help things along. I was a bit anti the tests but he would have been suspended from school without some reasoning to what he did, he was always fine with me, I could calm him down if he lost control and new most of his triggers.....
But we discovered a few new things and they gave him some "Tools" to help himself... and let him know how to handle the triggers better and now for the most part you wouldn't know
New things can be a struggle but if you can prepare him he handles them fine...
I still think his Mother overuses the term but I can see benefit in the tests they do to pick up what degree they are affected and what the strengths are
He has a great mind especially with maths.... now to get him to use it![]()
I had a little looky at a couple of Autism and ADD/ADHD/AHDH tests and I'm neither supposedly. At school I had issue with 1 subject, English Interpretation. My Teacher clicked it pretty much straight away, but there really was nothing either of us could do about it and it exists to this day. I had numerous possibilities to offer as an answer, but never directly answered the question. We didn't know why and it wasn't really a concern, so I failed English happily. Over the years I've come to realise that I probably needed more info before offering an answer. Dunno what the hell you'd call that, but it comes in handy when thinking things through. I guess I am, at minimum, allistic bordering in neurotypical.
Might I inquire as to why you thought I may be near the spectrum or ADHD?
Reckons tonight's story is going to be an Autism test for ma gal.
I didn't think!!! I experimented!!!
Bwhahaha ... I basically failed English at school ... Sure I could read and write fine .. (in fact I still read like a train ... and have no trouble writing) and at least one school wanted to publish stuff I wrote ..
But anyway .. I failed English ... later on I became a journalist - PAID to write stories for radio, television adn newspapers ... I was a paid writer ... what does that tell you about English in schools?
So ... I have little or no respect for English teachers ... You were lucky you had that one teacher ..
