If an ASD cure was made would you use it?

Berlusconi

As the title says.

Yes I would!!! I just want to be normal and accepted in the world. Being ASD is tiring and not a lot of fun half the time. My time at school was awful from the start to end because I was singled out for being different, no one wanted to know me because of that difference and it's kind of like it in adulthood as well. I would give anything to change the way I am.

  • No.

    I have no real concept of what it's like to be NT; it's difficult to understand and in fact quite alien to me. 

    If I was to be 'cured' I wouldn't be myself any more, I'd be somebody else that I wouldn't know or recognise.

    The empathy that I have with ND children would vanish, and I couldn't do my job. I wouldn't feel at one with animals and nature. 

    No, absolutely not.
