Well there are other symptoms than just social difficulty, some are even physical (extreme auditory perception in my case). There are many 'tests' (in '' as they are unofficial and carry no true legal or medical standing) that can help you gauge if you may have an autistic spectrum disorder.
Here's a link to one such online AQ test: http://www.aspergerstestsite.com/75/.../#.T-FHYfVVhmM
I must say, if you feel you need to, don't hesitate to talk to a doctor (even though I loathe doing so).
Luckily, I have no psychological or genetic disorders that I know of. Alcoholism does run rampant on both sides of my family, though; I too succumbed to this for a few years, but I was able to overcome that addiction.
Mostly now I suffer from purely physical ailments, the most irritating of which being my knee. It began hurting one day and never stopped.

This setup no longer hits 80+ FPS in raids on Ultra. Stay sad.
I'm quite apt in social situations, I understand signals and so on. But they exhaust me quickly and I get get REALLY pissy if I don't get to be alone when I've had enough. But I can get extremely upset about missunderstandings or very easily overwhelmed by new situations or people.
Aspergers for me is more of a horrible emotional rollercoaster.

I mean this with no disrespect. I looked for the answer on wiki but i couldnt find it. To the OP, is your penis of normal size? You dont have to answer i just couldnt find any info on that area.
edit: and i want to reiterate im not trying to be condescending, i really feel for the OP, i have a pretty small penis i am always curious about disorders
I just don't like people. Any of them.
I have terrible eyesight thanks to my fathers genes. Um brain tumors seem to run in my family too, my sister and uncle have both gotten them.
Can't doctors put ya on hormones to boost your development since your body isn't doing it for ya? Just a thought, idk, I'm def no doctor! But who cares dude, you'll be fine, hearing news like that is shitty at first, then you get over it, move on with your life, and live every day the best you can. You'll be fine!
I have vitiligo covering my hands, feet, chin, elbows, knees, back of my thighs, area around my eyes, and other parts. My regular skin tone is lighter brown (I am Egyptian and Albanian 50/50)
When I was a lot younger, it earned me the nickname "Betsy", because apparently Betsy is a "cow name". If you know what vitiligo is, you'll realize how vile and offensive that could be to a young, growing kid. Thus, junior high I was often driven to the point of wanting to kill myself. I am also diagnosed with an anxiety disorder and take a medication for depression - just as my sister.
I have Brugada Syndrome. I spontaneously go into cardiac arrest, usually when I am asleep. It's genetically inherited too, so I don't get to have kids, as Brugada is suspected to be one of the contributors to SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome, basically when a baby dies for no apparent reason). The only real symptom is cardiac arrest, I was lucky enough that I shared a room with my brother and that my dogs slept on my bed when my first cardiac arrest happened; my dogs started barking, woke my brother up who called 9-1-1. Fortunately now that I have my ICD (Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator) it's only a real problem when it happens like 9 times in 5 days, and makes me terrified to go to sleep.
Psoriasis / psoriatic arthritis.
Battling it with proper diet and regular exercise. Going good so far.
Yeah they can but that has its effects you see, like high blood pressure and less testosterone production from the testes. But if I don't take em it has its effects aswell.
That's why I'm debating if I should take it or not.
Also thanks for the kind words! I woke up in the middle of the night today because I felt so depressed, and the first thing I did was this thread actually... and I must say I feel a lot better now.
Yeah it can, but when it comes to my private parts etc it won't be affected for some reason. Also were you diagnosed early childhood or adulthood?
Edit: my private parts might be affected, just not positivily

So many aspies posting here, hehe. Asperger's, OCD tendancies, severe anxiety, bad eyesight, connective tissue disorder(nearly fit the diagnosis of marfan's), and some PTSD to go along with it all. Finally found something related to the sensory overload I experience that can trigger my anxiety http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Highly_sensitive_person this article actually makes a lot of sense for the problems I run into( e.g. certain scents induce large amounts of anxiety in me).
Probably although never diagnosed with anything.
avoidant personality disorder and bipolar
yay
