My many blessings

These past couple of weeks I have been learning to count my blessings. I have learned that I am blessed with many friends who have helped me through the most challenging times in my life. I am also very blessed to have such a wonderful family who will stand by me no matter what. Thank you all for your love and support. I love you tons.

Some of my troubles

One of the things I have the hardest time with still is how to act when around those of the other gender. I have found that no matter how hard I try I still cannot act the right way. I become to over whelming when I come to have feelings for someone. I try my hardest to act normally but I have learned that it is very hard to do that when I have strong feelings for a guy. I would highly recommend that people who have AS and are single to ask for advice from someone they trust before they do something that has to do with a person they are romantically interested in. I am trying to learn to do this. It is very hard to do since I am very stubborn. If you have any other ideas please comment.

My life so far

A lot has happened to me since I was diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome. I have learned a lot. I don't see my disabilities as disabilities, I see them as abilities. If I didn't have what I have then I wouldn't be the person I am now. My mom asked me once if in my dreams if I don't have Asperger's. My answer was that I didn't know because I don't know what it is like to not have Asperger's. I don't like it when people act differently around me when they find out about me. I see my Asperger's as characteristics of me.
