Is Aspergs a mild type of autism?
I have Asperger's syndrome, and am 13 years old. I was diagnosed at age three when I started preschool and wasn't interested in the other children. My parents knew that wasn't normal so I was sent to a doctor and that's when I was diagnosed. Asperger's syndrome is a disorder that you are born with, on the autism spectrum. It is also called aspie, or just plain Asperger's. It causes people particularly children, to have trouble making friends, lack eye contact, have one particular interest, have repetitive behaviors, and take expressions literally. As for mild, that means to not show severe symptoms or to not have it very bad. A lot of people with Asperger's syndrome are very smart and became very successful, such as Albert Einstein, Isaac Newton, and Benjamin Franklin all had Asperger's syndrome. As of me, I don't think of it as something wrong with me, nor am I ashamed of it, I think of it as something that makes me unique and special. It's just a part of who I am. It makes me... Me! I wouldn't change that about myself for anything, I have lived my whole life with it. I'm smart and funny and am proud of who I am.
