I thought we talked about your psychological name calling already. I thought we agreed you would at least be creative enough to rotate through the mental illnesses in order to bring awareness to more of them. At least be creative, will you? Why’s it always Asperger’s? Are you well acquainted with it?
>>>>>For your information:
I mention Asperger’s occasionally on these threads for several reasons, the primary reason being some people, including your humble scribe, sometimes exhibit Asperger’s-like symptoms. Do they apply to you? You decide. Perhaps there is some connection between audio nervosa and Asperger’s. But I’m not a psychiatrist. Perhaps you know better than I. Below find major symptoms. I skipped a few symptoms that didn’t seem appropriate here.
As for *wire directionality* I doubt you would be able to prove the negative.
Asperger’s Symptom #1: Underdeveloped Social Skills
Individuals with Asperger’s syndrome often have difficulty in social interaction.
Asperger’s Symptom #3: Inability to Empathize
Individuals with Asperger’s can often seem as if they are insensitive or uncaring towards others as they have issues providing socially acceptable responses when they interact with others.
Asperger’s Symptom #4: Difficulty with Eye Contact
Asperger’s Symptom #5: Restricted Interests
Individuals with Asperger’s can have narrowed or restricted interests that are focused. It can be interests such as model building, drawing, video games, or more. The interests that they are so focused on provide a sense of security and comfort for them.
Asperger’s Symptom #7: Literary Language
Individuals with Asperger’s may have weaknesses in areas that uses nonliteral language such as humor, teasing, irony, and sarcasm. They have difficulty interpreting what others are saying and often take what the other person says as truth.
Asperger’s Symptom #10: Unusual Communication and Speech
While individuals with Asperger’s do not have any delay in acquiring language and speech, there can be abnormalities in their style of communication and speech. For example, there can be abrupt transitions, miscomprehension, literal interpretations, oddities in pitch, volume, intonation, and rhythm of their speech. There can also be echolalia which means that there is repetition of vocalizations. Their speech can be flat, unusually fast, jerky, or loud.
