I know this is a bit weird but i just wanted to say this
my name (real one that is) is Christopher
I'm 18 and well i was diagnosed with aspergers syndrome and dyslexia
now you are thinking what the hell is aspergers syndrome
AS or Aspergers Syndrome is a complex disorder that is part of the autistic spectrum
it is sometimes linked to and/or misdiagnosed as high functioning autism
normal people with AS have high IQ s but due to the other disability the piggybacks with it have a larger inability to express there intelligence
by no means is a high IQ mean you are smart it just means you can interpret information faster and more accurately
the main part of AS is that it is a communication difficulty e.g. cant pick up on sarcasm or body language
all that i have stated is from personal experience i may be wrong, but in the same instance i may not be
for more information about aspergers syndrome go to one of these sites
www.aspergersnetwork.org.uk
www.aspergersnetwork.org
the prior being a charity that my guardians run for people in Ireland with AS
the reason behind this thread is that i wanted to explain a couple of things about myself that would explain why i might disappear for small amounts of time
part of AS is the inability to cope with the "Normal" way of life which can lead to depression

I dont mean to pick on you, but it would be safer to remove your full name and only post your First name...

We have a couple members who have mental diseases, so dont feel like your the only one
