Autism is real.
http://www.webmd.com/mental-health/news/20020214/autistic-brain-structure-is-different
--The brain is mildly defective in a way, and the amount of effected tissue determines the autism.

Asperger's Syndrome is real. I have it, and it was NOT diagnosed by a single idiot with his head shoved so far up his ass that he could see through his mouth. It was diagnosed by the entire psychiatric ward at Vanderbilt Psychiatric Hospital in the Nashville area over a period of three days. It is a redistribution of brain cell allocation, as illustrated by THIS CHART. There are many portions of the brain which are smaller than in the average person, but there are also a few particularly important areas which have been enlarged.

Clinical depression is real -- A Serotonin imbalance causes a lack of clear thinking, causing all things to seem worse than they truly are.

Attention Deficit Disorder is real as well, but many dumbass psychologists seem to be mistaking that for boredom.

I'm not a stubborn person and if given logical fact and reasoning i'm known to change my mind. but if your claiming that you believe in autism I would like some proof or support of its existence. more then "if you knew someone with it you would know its real".

i've actually met people diagonsed with autism and aspergeres.
my highschool has a program servicing all the learning disabled kids in the area so I know alot of these kids first hand.
In my experience those diagnosed with aspergeres usually just have a hobby or two that they really enjoy and dont really care about anything else in life.
I personally know a person that easily faked a.d.d. to get ritalin.


Do you have any idea how hard it would be for someone to fake autism or aspergus?
Yes it is falsly diagnosed sometimes, but that doesn't mean it isn't real.
"You push it, stretch it, it'll never be enough. You kick at it, beat it, it'll never cover any of us. From the moment we enter crying to the moment we leave dying, it will just cover your face as you wail and cry and scream."



I'd rather take Ethan EXAKUTION than Ethan Hawke to my formal.
