14 yr old son asperger's syndrome or depressed?
My 14 yr old son has ADHD, and was diagnosed 3 years ago with Aspergers. He has an appt in a few weeks and I am wanting to talk to the doctor because I am really starting to think that my son does not have asperger's. Alot of the symptoms just dont fit him,mainly being he loves being social, I talked to my son about me talking to the doctor and trying anti depressants. He freaked out and said he knows he doesnt have aspergers and he knows he isnt depressed and that his adhd has gotten better and wants to stop taking his meds. I dont know what to do. He just seems so down lately and his grades are falling again. he isnt very organized and been sensitive. and I was just wondering if anyone had some suggestions. His appt with doctor isnt for another 2 weeks.
Can kids with asperger's syndrome 'like' or 'fall in love' with anyone?
Sooo I'm only 13, but there's this guy I've liken for a long time. He's 14 and he's really nice. He acts like any other normal person, and we laugh at the same stuff and he always tries to get my attention.I recently found out he has asperger's syndrome. It feels kinda weird liking a kid with it, but I like him a lot. likee, butterflies in your stomach when you just think about him 3 I already told him I liked him, or rather someone did it for me. Do you think its possible that he could like me back and we could go out? My friend told me he didn't, and I kinda expected that. But I meann, idk if there's anything special with people with this disorder. Thanksss Yeah, and I reallly wanna talk to him about it but I'm kinda nervous and I'm afraid it'll be too akward...
Is it ok to get medication for asperger's syndrome?
Is it recommended for an asperger's patient to go on psychiatric medication in order to treat other side manifestations like obsessive compulsive disorder, attention deficit and depressive disorder? some professionals psychologists tell me i should not go on medication because that could damage my intelectual performance and that aspies don't really need any kind of medication cause if i do that i will be just like anybody else goodbye to my genius mind , but my doctor psychiatrist says it would be helpful and it will make me feel better to stop the sadness and that my intelect could even improve, since the attention deficit will be under control. Would really appreciate your help.
Can those who know teenagers with asperger's tell me a little bit about them?
I would like to know how other teenagers with asperger's act.My brother has asperger's and he gets away with a whole lot. More than most kids with autism and such.I would especially like to know what teenage girls with asperger's act like.So I was wondering if you could describe anything that they do that is a little different or weird or just not like everyone else.ThanksChloe
I think I may have asperger's syndrome.(undiagnosed)?
I've always been the odd ball out. My parents are always telling me that I'm different from anyone else that they know. I have a hard time making eye contact. When speaking I'll make quick eye contact, glance around, make eye contact again, and repeat. I don't realize I'm doing it until after the fact. I have a hard time talking to people. I'll clam up, and my face will turn bright red. Same with public speaking. Can't do public speaking at all without almost crying. I constantly fidgit and twist my torso when standing in place. I cross my arms because I feel awkward standing any other way. I withdraw from people, and I'm not comfortable with social settings like parties and such. I've been told that I have a large vocabulary and my parents and teachers criticize me of trying to go ABOVE my level, but it just feels natural to me. I never thought about it. I think that it intimidates peers. I've never had many friends, and I get walked on I think. Taken advantage of. I just feel so alone, because I know that I'm different and I have no one else like me to discuss it with. One of the main reasons that I think I have this is, my psychologist mentioned that she thought I could have it after my mother told her that I walk with my head down and don't smile much. I've come out of it a little, but I'm still bad at social things . Also, my cousin has been diagnosed with autism. My mom doesn't think that I could have this, and I can't convince her yet. I feel so out of place amongst my peers, and I shy away from intimate things. I'm just uncomfortable in my own body and mind, and I'm so alone. I will be so relieved to get answers on this. Do you think I could have this?
Do you get fed up of people assuming your weird just because you have asperger's syndrome?
My family dont take me seriously at all they think oh i have autism she is just weird they ask a question i get it right they dont believe me they check with my sister that is horriblepeople just think im stupid and worthless i had to miss out alot of my schooling because of my problems and they think oh i just couldn't be bothered no one understands Whats your view on this?
My boyfriend has Autism, asperger's, and something like PDD?
But I don't know what these mean What should I expect? He acts very odd in public, but he says he was diagnosed with a little of these...What does it mean? How can I help?I also get angry at him for things that he does that are really not normal, so I want to know what I must understand of him
How do I make the official diagnosis for asperger syndrom?
im gonna make an appointment with my regular doctor, does he make the official diagnosis to see if I have it or is it someone else.Another thing if I do have AS which im sure of does it go on my record or something, so when I apply for a job does anyone have to know?
What to do about my asperger syndrom?
know those people who just say they have ADHD, AS etc...... eaven though they don't.I know I have AS im 100 % sure, let me tell you why. My whole life I cant interact with people i cant make them laugh unless I make myself look stupid, I can never make friends. I also have this thing that my teachers tell me how I can come up with big words and I have many in my vocabulary, I still do this. I never had a friend in 4 years, i only do small talk at school like " how are you doing today" . I have never made my class laugh, never. I would like to be outgoing but I don't know what to say. Today I truly wanted to make people see me as funny and outgoing to I tried to say something humerus, it was super lame and awkward. I just don't know how to keep up a conversation between people, and whenever I try I make it really awkward by doing something very very stupid that I end up regretting I ever said. At first I thought that my social gap might have been ADD that's what I told myself for 3 years but it wasn't until recently that I found out it was AS. When I knew I had ADD i said that ill treat it as soon as I turn 18 im 16 . because I don't want anyone who knows me to find out, i just dont. But when I read about AS it says that its better to treat it at a young age. So who do I see to help me with this and how much is it gonna cost me? I make scrap money so I hope that its cheap.Also can I sneak my parents insurence card that they have for me and use it while im 16 , I Then could pay for what insurence doesnt cover.Does insurence cover this kind of stuff? Please Help me
Do I have depression, social anxiety disorder or asperger's syndrome?
I can be awkward in social situations, and meeting new people. I spend a lot of time alone, and I think about my problems a lot and what makes me feel or think this way. I like the company of close friends, although I haven't socialized that much in quite a long time. I worry that my 'lonely' ways isolate me from my friends or meeting other people but it's how I'm comfortable most of the time. I find it difficult to express myself a lot of the time, and I often find myself uncomfortable making eye contact with people because I feel that they can sense that I'm not much good socially. I think I can difficulties adjusting to new, unfamiliar situations, so I always look for comfort. I struggle to concentrate on most things too It's not that I'm stupid but I find work and other things that require concentrate hard . I get alot of headaches and even dizziness from trying to concentrate or from other challenging things. Basically, I don't know how to overcome my social and cognitive difficulties and still have that comfort zone that I often feel when I'm by myself.
