Search Results: good manners

If someone has Asperger’s it’s usually high end autism meaning he/she has very mild autism. I was diagnosed with Asperger’s at 8 and I still couldn’t understand people with adhd and Down syndrome were going through. I can relate more to ordinary people. It’s quite complicated to explain my condition, I’m 98% normal and 2% autistic. When I have nothing to do my mind tends to daydream, and I had a very bad habit of placing my phone perfectly, no matter how hard I tried to get rid of that habit it just doesn’t work. I realised I could get rid of almost all of my bad habits except for my phone. I didn’t have any meltdowns, but I do have a bit of inner frustration when my phone wasn’t place in a perfect position. In high school I was given extra time to finish exam papers which of course came as a shock to everyone in class. I did get some questions which were no doubt a bit offensive. Here’s the few questions they asked me:

-You act and look like a normal person how could you be autistic?

-Aren’t all autistic people act in very strange manners every time?

-no wonder you can get good grades easily I wish I was like you!

After they asked what’s my condition like I told them it’s very hard to explain but I did keep it very short by telling them I’m 98% normal and 2% autistic.
