they started calling it that because they don't really know enough about it... there used to be different diagnosis for different "flavors" of ASD, such as aspergers which was specifically defined by high intelligence and poor social skills... but they just decided to roll it all into one to make it easier(read cheaper)...

Aspergers was another word they used for my diagnosis

do you also get annoyed when someone asks a question and either reply means the same thing to them?

like on pawn stars when the dude comes in to check out their stuff and is like "mind if I take a look?"... and no matter if they say "no" or "ya" both answers seem to mean "go ahead"?

people things >.>

Considering Hans Asperger was a n@zi eugenicist, I don't mind the "ASD" rebranding.

Disgusting that some try to compare him to Schindler.

Well like 5 years ago I could get like 100% scores on exams and such so the decline in just 5 years have been bad.

Then it means something about your lifestyle is severely impacting your health. Could be stress maybe? Lack of physical exercise? Poor diet?

I can’t sleep well because I’ve stuff to think about even if that don’t help in any way which like I guess around 80% of the stuff I do think about.

do an evening run then. The easiest way to a good night's sleep is always physical exercise. Your brain uses more energy than any other organ in your body. Just make sure it doesn't have enough energy by the end of the day to keep you up.

Don’t think so, but I don’t talk much with people in first place beyond like What help doing my job.

Sounds like burnout to me.

Well seeing What happened to people like Bobby Fischer, I assume something similar will happen to me over time.

More specifically Asperger's is effectively autism without the associated learning disabilities. Your natural interests and abilities start you off weaker in social skills but oddly higher in language skills than a normal person but if you choose to you can learn social skills just as effectively.

you can... but it's highly stressful.

doing that is just easier...

and it's not like "taking an easy way out", more not climbing the mountain... it's an extra thing to do that.

I'm not familiar with his story, but I assume he started acting erratic under pressure and then withdrew.

If so, Yes, probably several times during your lifetime tbh. But it is not permanent. You can recover. Our understanding of what is going on has increased in recent decades.

It's a constant fight to be yourself enough to be happy and to not be your self enough so the more judgmental or intolerant people around you will not target you for harassment.

I don't know if Bobby Fischer was a case of "burnout."

The government really did him dirty with the Yugoslavia business.

[kingjames488]

idk who that is either... but this whole "burnout" thing seems to be something that's only been substantialized officially within the last few years... and ofc none of the so-called "professionals" are even aware of it and just tried to tell me I was depressed and do literally the worst things possible...

you can recover from it though, it's just a hard long process... and some of the harm done might be more permanent.

Autism isn't bad, depending on the level of the spectrum you are on, you can actually make it work for you extremely well.

Certain people will be able to obsessed upon a topic of interest and excel at it.

In fact any child prodigy will have Autism running in the family line to be able to do that. It's like an evolution step. They will focus and excel. It's just a matter of setting the mind to what you enjoy dwelling upon into a more positive learning pattern.

Autism don’t mean you are obsessed about stuff however, atleast from my understanding.

no, but it's often associated with OCD and ADHD...
