Im Starting to Understand.... but still need some help.

Alright sooo, Hi, this is me, you can call me Joe. So listen, I'm usually never on a kind of site like this, im either playing some video games or just on facebook or something at this hour. A while back, I was told something from my father. Now with the taking into the account in 25 years old. He thought that I might seriously have asbergers.

Now I have NEVER had the impression i had anything like this... I was diagnosed with ADHD that was never fully cured. I mean the physical traits faded out, but the social ackward elements remain.

Like I CANNOT maintain a conversation to save my life, I've tried and felt ackward coming out of it every single time. Like certain people understand me, and I love that one person, but every else who dosent I just dont really like the quality of people who have too much pride in their own appearance, abilities, achievements, etc. : the quality of being vaincare for. I mean i care, but eh, friends are overated and complicated.

Every aspect of my communicating skills from the time I was 5 has been kinda diminished. I verbally stutter, I physically can't do cursive writing, and i have slight dyslexia when I try ti type out on the keyboard. <----- see what I mean? I just left that in there!

And relationships, boy let me tell on one hand (not including the thumb) just how many I had. Well i'll let you guess, but maintaining a relationship and knowing a sense about coupth, morales, and even general demeanor you have when your out with someone, is very very hard to me.

Like, all my life I felt... different, and for god knows I never wondered why that was. I felt like I didn't fit in with absolutley anyone and I was always so frustrated when i didn't even KNOW what asbergers was. So I just thought it was me, I mean, i'm not writing it off as a way to right off excuses or anything. But It just feels good to know that, I wasn't just a messed up kid, I had a reason for it.

  • Why hello there! very pleased to meet you to, in a sense. Well, my father said directly that I might have aspergers. Because I am a certified nurses assistant and I worked at a long term care facility for 3 months before eventually getting fired. The main complaint from my employers being that I just couldn't keep up with with the many many tasks that were expected of me on a day to day basis.

    When I am given to many tasks to do at once I move very hesitantly because I dont know which task i should put first. I have only really felt comfortable sticking to one particular thing and finishing it to completion and then moving on to the next thing rather then do many small things at once and complete them all at the same time.

    Truthfully i dont even know where to start with a doctor or really what I have to do or who to see to get a proffesinal medical opinion. Do i go to a doctor, do i go to a behavioral therapist?
