Well i always get called different, Odd, Emotionless and, To be honest, I feel the same, All my life i have and i have had to deal with this but no one has tried to help me, But then Janet came along, She was frustrated and upset no one helped with my bullying and helped me with everything, She became a mum to me, Then she wanted to get me Diagnosed with Asperger's, Reading up on it i thought i had it too (Guessed for a few months though), Now my family does and i just am sad about it.
I will be happy if i get diagnosed with it, But, I am scared people will bully me more or i will not get certain jobs ect. Like everything for Asperger's, I fit into it, It will be a miracle if i do not have it, I want it, But then again, The thoguht of having it makes me want to cry.
I would cry but i already cried today as Janet (Miss.Slade) Has been helping me for roughly a year now but i never took it in, Then lately she has been full on with this helping, And i think it kind of all hit me at once, She convinced my mum i may have Aspergers which i was trying to do but she did not believe me, She helpes me with the bullying, She helps me with all school life, She helped me find Colleges and, She just means a lot to me and realizing what she has done just made me cry, I owe a lot to her.

If you are diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome, then not only will you receive beneficial financial advantages, you'll also be able to get help from your schools SENCO, meaning that if you find something hard, or need a break, and you're diagnosed, then the school will let you as they know you may find things difficult compared to someone who is not diagnosed. The people at school don't have to know you're diagnosed. Not if you don't tell them. If you tell them "Oh hey guys I just got diagnosed with AS" then you're setting yourself up for more bullying, which shouldn't even be happening, those people are fucked up and need to take their head out of their arse. Anyways, go for a diagnosis I'd say. It's harder to get one when you're older, and you may regret not having one when you're older.

Thanks for what you have said, It has made me feel better, I would only tell one person i have got it, But the things with school at later life sound pretty cool, I hope that is the same for tests as i struggle to sit there doing nothing ha ha, But the people who would bully me used to be friends, And now i am hoping my English teacher stops picking on me too once he notices i have it.

One of my best friends has aspbergers too. It's good that you know what the trouble is and that you can get help for it.

I don't really know anything about asbergers, but it's good that you've got someone to help you through it :)

You should know you're not different in any way, shape, or form. You're still a person. You're still beautiful. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. :)

If you get diagnosed, you will be given support from your family and from your school :)

My Aspergers diagnosis just let me understand myself a bit better, after I used to get frustrated at myself for being so insular. I went to my GP's myself and didnt tell my parents until I got the diagnosis through. How would anyone bully you if they didnt know? I only told my closest friends which was good as it helped them understand why in groups I retreat a bit and struggle to get out with them outside of school. As for thd jobs side, sure certain employers may not employ you (cant think of any off the top of my head) but Autism opens up so many other doors, I took a couple of tests designed to identify people good at recognising patterns, it turns out that i'm quite good. I asked the GP why this was and he said those with Autism/Aspergers etc have brains that sork in a different way and can identify certain patterns better / notice finer detail. So in some ways its a blessing and in some areas its a curse.
Hopefully there's something in here you can use

Why does anyone need to know? This is your own private personal life, which you should not be ashamed of (it doesn't seem you are). My sister has aspergers, and I wouldn't consider her "disabled" in any way. On the contrary. It doesn't own her life, and it doesn't have to own yours. If you want to tell certain people than go ahead, but you never have to tell anyone if you don't feel they would understand.
