People with Asperger's, how impaired were you as a child and are you better now?
When I was a child I had no friends. I think my first friendship was at 12 years old. I spent recess reading or thinking to myself. I used to scream when people touched me and freak out at loud noises, strange smells and scratchy fabrics. I took most things literally and I was often made fun of without even knowing it. I only talked about whatever my current obsession and if someone tried to talk about something else I would attempt to change the subject to my obsession. At one point when I was about 10 I got obsessed with human decomposition and creeped out a lot people by only talking about rotting bodies for about three months. I had no idea that I was frightening people. I currently am not that badly impaired. I still can get very confused in social situations and am somewhat scared at large social events but I do have friends. I can even go to metal concerts and participate in the mosh pit and everything but I don’t think of it as a social event. I still freak out at certain smells though. I can talk about subjects outside my current obsession though I do sometimes have a hard time not talking about it. I still sometimes frighten people with my vast knowledge of serial killers though.
I just asked my brother and he said, "I had no friends. People called me weird. I have friends now because I’m more mature but without my sister I would’ve never survived and commit social suicide."
I would ask my cousin but he’s in Ohio.

when i was little i had a few friends but never a lot and never true friends a lot of times they were eaither using me or "mothering" me. i learned to hide my obsessions at a young age because they werent deepem "appropriate" by my peers for example i was obsessed with barney the dinosaur till i was about 7 or 8. i was also bullied a lot through out the years.
for sensory issues i couldnt stand most clothing i had tho wear biker shorts and leggings because most pants felt stracty to me
at bar and bat mitzvahs i would always have sometype of meltdown and burst into tears halfway through it becaue of the loud music.
now my social skills are better but i am still seen as awkward
my sensory issues are somewhat worse though now i am very sensitive to high pitch noises i have less of a tolerence now to sensory stimuli than i used too

I was a black and white thinker, didn’t know where the lines were drawn, couldn’t see the gray areas, I didn’t respect peoples opinions and mom had to keep telling me everyone was entitled to it and it was an opinion. I also hugged and kissed anyone I liked and I couldn’t understand why they didn’t like it. I also had no sense of personal space and had no TOM. I didn’t realize people had feelings until I was six but I couldn’t understand them and understood why they get so upset with me. I had friends but I had difficulty fitting in and had difficulty relating to them outside my home. Everything had to be my way or the highway because I was so inflexible. I wouldn’t accept my friends way of playing and what they wanted to do. I only talked about what I wanted to talk about and I talked about the same things over and over. I was very clumsy and I had more sensory issues. I didn’t like jeans and I didn’t like anything tight. I couldn’t throw very well and my balance was poor then. I also said things that were rude like "you’re fat" when they wouldn’t even ask for my opinion. I did not read people or understand them. I have always had friends growing up and then starting 4th grade, that was when I started to lose my friends so I went for the younger age group. I only had friends because we had things in common and they came over and used me for my stuff. At school they did things I liked. Then it became chit chat when I was ten and I found it hard and difficult. They talked about boring stuff I wasn’t into. I also took things literal and still do.
But I am a lot better now. I was already getting better when I was diagnosed. I have outgrown some of my traits. I am flexible now and I do better with change. My balance is very good now and I wear jeans and I like tight clothing. I don’t talk about my obsessions much and I keep them to myself. I have TOM now and I am not black and white. I do better seeing the gray and I respect peoples opinions and beliefs and point of views. I know to draw the line now. I can look at people now off and on. I’ve learned to fake empathy and show it. I mostly learned on my own just by observing people as a child and watching movies and how things are done and copying people. I learned to cope with groups just by doing what they do and have them tell me what to do. I still have difficulty so I prefer to be told what to do.
