Classic autism doesn't necessarily mean that. The diagnostic conditions are just that there is a language delay, which doesn't occur in people with AS. Although most people with classic autism are as you describe, usually because they also have a co-morbid intellectual disability as well.
Myself? Somewhere in the middle.....well, I was put into the Level 2 support group, when everyone with AS is put into Level 3 by default. And considering the UK government is incredibly stingy in terms of providing support to the disabled....I can only assume I must look like I can't cope by myself more so than the Aspie's can. Probably gonna get put into supported housing once my parents get fed up with me or drop dead.
But yeah, I'd like a cure. Better than being in absolute agony every time I hear a loud noise or loving the smell of shit.....least I don't smear it on my face and pretend I'm Arnold Schwarzenegger in Predator anymore.

Well, actually, yes it does. That milder versions are now included is only a very recent addition, within the last 20 years or so. In order to be diagnosed with autism even in the 80's and most (if not all) of the 90's you had to literally be a non-verbal, pants shitting retard. Not everyone under the old diagnosis criteria learned how to eventually speak, which is why Chris is considered high functioning. Many of the people who are diagnosed now would've been just considered eccentric/weird if they were born 35+ years ago, and maybe would've been diagnosed in high school if they were born 30 years ago.

I hate when autism becomes sugarcoated and gets described as if it's the best thing that has happened to them. It's called a disability for a reason.

That's actual autism, not self-diagnosed """autism""" (or rubber-stamp diagnosis from a doctor who uses it for every kid who acts a bit weird sometimes). The self-diagnosed kind only has upsides- asspats, special consideration, "the rules don't really apply to me " etc.

When I was a child, up until I was about 11, I used to love the smell, sight and texture of poop. And I saw Predator when I was maybe 8 or 9 accidentally (dad left the VHS in the player), and vividly remembered that Schwarzenegger disguised his body temperature by coating his body in mud. I thought it was poo, so I made every effort to copy him, at home, school, wherever, because I was adamant that I was being stalked by a Predator who would skin me alive. I'd start going absolutely mental if anyone tried to prevent me from doing it. Prior to that, I just used to play with it like play-dough. Fortunately, I eventually managed to develop enough mentally to understand that playing with poop is a massive no no.

Depends, I didn't develop any speech at all until I was about 4 and a half, and couldn't speak proper sentences properly for another 2 years, I underwent intensive speech therapy for about 4 years of my life. Didn't take my first steps until I was about 2-2.5, and struggled severely with potty training, only stopped soiling myself at school at about 11, and at home at about 13. I used to urinate in objects in my bedroom e.g. an Action Man truck, or objects similar to that. I'm definitely more severely affected than an Aspie (whether diagnosed or self-diagnosed) is, and was diagnosed at the age of 4 with autism (which was in the 90s). But there are also plenty out there who are worse than me, I eventually learned to use speech, but I don't know how to use it effectively. Most of my answers are usually very vague, such as "yes", "no", "going out" etc, and I can get very frustrated very easily if answers are required to be more complex, or if I don't understand a question (a fairly common occurrence). It's easier for me to communicate via written word (handwriting is appalling, however, so it's a good thing computers and smartphones exist!)

Back to the actual topic that started this thread, I have been on Wrong Planet, but the amount of people on there who are either self-diagnosed, feigning the condition or feigning the seriousness of their condition really pissed me off. They're just socially awkward people with weird interests. That's essentially it. I know a fair few Aspie's personally, and they all seem relatively fine besides for their awkwardness, most have jobs and everything, and getting a job is still something I'm trying to accomplish after 7 years of trying. I'm not complaining though, hopefully I can improve more in certain areas and it will make me easier to integrate in a workplace (was bullied by the owner's wife at my last place of work, one really nasty example is that they did a fire drill every Wednesday at 1pm, I knew this procedure and so I would excuse myself to the bathroom and put noise cancelling headphones on. She had the drill happen 30 minutes earlier and I had a meltdown........but nothing was done about it, she claimed she "forgot" that it was something that I seriously couldn't stand).

You should hang yourself. I'm not trying to be edgy and this isn't banter. You should literally take a rope and you should loop it over a rafter or sturdy branch or whatever you can find and then you should tie it around your neck and then you should hang yourself with it until you die. You probably don't even need to leave a note, I have a sneaking suspicion that everyone that knows you will understand completely without anything further needing said.

I've kind of gotten past the point of caring really.

Kiwi Farms is not the right place to be talking about your poop fascination unless you know what you're getting yourself into.

I'm sure I'll be fine. Not really fussed about people laughing at me, you become used to it over the years.

To be honest, I've just learned to accept that I am the way I am, and that people will find it weird/annoying/funny regardless as to whether I isolate myself or not. I just embrace it now, yes, I am fucking weird and mentally fucked up, but there's no point in being depressed about it. That will just make matters worse.

They probably would understand. But I currently have a dog to look after, and it would be unfair on her and selfish to kill myself.
