Wow- the people here are very 'disordered'... to say the least.
I've been diagnosed with Semantic Pragmatic Disorder [sort of like Asperger's], Attention Deficit Disorder, General Anxiety Disorder, Mild Social Phobia, and well, I've had sleep disorders ever since I left my mother's womb.
I'm disordered too... yay?
=P

Wow, ok, thank you childofdarkness....some strange niggling mum sense just made me look up SPD....and now at last I have a name for what makes my son the odd one out in school.

I cannot believe even though he's been in a special language unit they've not mentioned this at all....oh they've muttered and skirted 'round Asbergers and Autism...'no, no, we don't think.......um....maybe...mutter mutter' etc etc but not a mention of this. Yet on every site I've searched the symptoms fit.

I am oddly relieved. And a little emotional.

Off to have a comforting cup of tea.

I have untreated clinical depression and mild bipolar disorder. It means that I get quickly changing moods and can go from hyper to suicidal within minutes. My issues are no where near as serious as some described here, but it's making it hard to be 'normal' and keep on top of school. I also have severe insomnia, which stems from mental factors. Which is part of the reason I'm up this early. I get really bad headaches that they say are related to my insomnia and depression. I'm in a bit of denial that I understand what I have to deal with, but I refuse to get medicated. Strange thing is that when I'm on the depression end of things, my insomnia disappears and all I want to do is sleep. I have a difficult time interacting with people for long periods of time because the mood swings kick in pretty often. I don't get manic much as hyper, active, and strangely gleeful; all of which are quickly followed by periods of quiet, grumpy-ness (my sister's word), and depressed behavior. The only reason I can describe it this well is that my mom sends me to a shrink so that I don't try to kill myself again. Oh, almost forgot to mention the SI, self-injury/ cutting. I am most definately not the most stable person around.

Ah well welcome a fellow Aspergerian (it's a name I prefer over aspieand person with aspergers because if you act like it is not a part of you people treat you like you have a disease).

Just about any neuroleptic will cause weight gain with the exception of perhaps Geodon. I've been on most anti psychotics known to man and well...I'm pharmaceutically fat now. I was diagnosed years ago w/ Bipolar 1 w/psychotic features, PTSD, and Dissociative identity disorder...but who cares about that kind of crap anyway.

I have severe ADD/ADHD issues, according to my fired shrink. I take no meds, nor do I care to. They make me very sleepy.

As for how it interferes with my everyday life, it doesn't, for the most part, anymore. There are of course bad days, in which I cannot, for the life of me, hold still, nor can I stay on a subject for more than five minutes. I have a tendency of being very silly and happy when I'm having a "bad day".

Most of the time though, its confined to me shaking my leg or constantly looking around, or not being able to concentrate on a conversation. Its not too bad, to be honest.

I'm still taking it although it has been making me very strange. Like I've been doing things like mumbling to myself outloud when I never do that. I've also been kind of getting moods like terrible. Although I have been able to focus better I've been feeling kind of wiped out.

I'm not sure but I think i'm bi-polar. I get the feeling sometimes, because sometimes I have real weird mood swings for no reason. Although that could just be puberty. Another one is that i'm very paranoid.

Sometimes I get the feeling people talk about me behind my back and say bad things about me.

That's not so bad. There are worse things you could be paranoid of. I'm sort of having the same problem but it's because I'm extremely shy.

Hail All!
Just a quick one this as I need to get to bed shortly, but thought that I'd make a contribution after quickly skimming this thread. :-)

I'm another Aspie - I was diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome (Often shortened to AS) about three years ago. I was initially prescribed a low (500ug) daily dosage of Haloperidol, but gave that up shortly afterwards as I was getting Cannabis-esque side effects. :-O

Since then, I've been forging my own way through life and seem to be doing okay-ish...Although the rigours of normal day-to-day life pose no problem for me at all, it's the things that matter most to me (Keeping a job, making friends, finding love etc.) that I'm forever messing up on! :'-(

Strangely enough (For someone with Aspergers anyway) I find that I am able to go for nights out on my own or with friends, and never seem to have any of the anxiety problems that most Aspies are said to have...So after what ChildOfDarkness mentioned about him/herself, I may take a peek at what Wikipedia says for Semantic Pragmatic Disorder to check for the (Very remote) possibility that my diagnosis is incorrect, as I have sometimes wondered if it's actually Aspergers that I have... :-O

On more minor issues: I'm also prone to OCD-like behavior, have something of a paranoia with certain social situations (Possibly due to the AS), and tend to use obscene language a lot. (Although I don't honestly think I have Tourette's Syndrome.)

Farewell...

Same here, I'm very shy, it's because there isn't much I can say to start a conversation too.

Don't try try to diagnose yourself, because while many things may have the same symptoms the symptoms themselves may be different in many way. The doctors know the fine line between similar issues, I for example could say off of my own internet informed diagnosis I have a borderline personality disorder. But my county appointed therapist knows what somone with the actual disorder acts like. Its kind of like the difference between goth metal industrial and emo, they may all have similarities but there are several major differences that an inexperienced person could not differentiate between.

Oh my lady and lord I sound like a walking stereotype for Goth *lol*

So anyway what's your diagnosis? and how do you deal with it? Perhaps we could make this a sort of support/vent/rant kind of thread
Wow, we must come from a similar family tree, because I have: bi-polar, schizotypical disorder, anxiety disorder, and panic, as well as severe anger problems, ADHD, tourettes, and a hypersexuality problems.

Hurrah for mental retardation!

Well I don't know if mine are severe enough but I'll list them anyway. I have aspburgers syndrome (a very strange form of autism,look it up), PTSD, and I've been hospitalized for depression. I say however I'm not depressed. You'd be miserable too if your entire family died off when you were thirteen and from then on you supported youself. Not that I'm complaining.

I've struggled with anorexia (binge/purge type) for...shit, like five years now, with OCD, clinical depression, and a little self-harm sprinkled into the mix! I attempted suicide almost two years ago, and I hope that I'm never in that Geodon-induced hopelessness again.

Geodon fucks you up, man. Or, at least it did me.

Please learn to spell aspergers correctly, you're not the only one here with it and frankly the asburgers spelling of it is considered very offensive.

I had suicidal depression. I still deal with it. Have panic attacks once in awhile, not a big deal.

A big part of why it's under control now, is I went to see a medical doctor, got diagnosed and given a cure. Beyond that I've started studying Traditional Asian Medicine and found a good all around blend I take daily.

For panic attacks, I workout regularly. If a panic attack comes on, I focus on what is really around me to come out it. It is weird though. I usually just feel like I'm in a dream suddenly and nothing is real. It really isn't that bad. Got coping skills.

I believe I may be developing anxiety. I keep worrying about things I shouldn't. But something tells me my worried may be true, so there's slight possibility of sanity.
