| EC Addict Full Member ![]() Gender: M for MEEP! Orientation: Mutant and Proud Out Status: Out to everyone Location: Windsor, Ontario Age: 24 Posts: 6,564 Join Date: Jun 2005 | Hello everyone. As you recall I posted yesterday the link to my MTV segment, however the mods had to take it down as it was in conflict with the CoC since I said my own name in it. However, while I'm not allowed to post a direct link here on EC, if any full member wants to watch, send me a PM and I'll send you the link. I have a link for Canadians and a link for anyone else who wants to watch whether you're American, Australian, or Narnian. ![]()

This is something that will definitely help to raise people's awareness. If you haven't messaged him to see it (and are a full member), you definitely should! |

It's refreshing to know that MTV does segments like this.

I've never really thought about Asperger's Syndrome but you should be so freaking amazingly proud about what you're doing, seriously. ^_^

| Bright Spark Full Member ![]() Gender: ?TM transguy Orientation: Panromantic Asexual Out Status: Pending review Location: Somerset, UK Age: 17 Posts: 1,051 Join Date: May 2011 | I think I have it quite mildly. I've never been diagnosed, but once a therapist sugested it a few years ago, I researched it and it seems pretty likely.

| Formerly Concretehands Full Member Gender: Male Orientation: Gay Out Status: two Location: London Town Age: 17 Posts: 1,297 Join Date: Aug 2010 | The psychology teacher (who is also my head of year) at my 6th form wants me to get tested because my teachers have all reported 'correlating behaviour patterns' to her. I'm not sure why, but I don't want to. I would like to watch this, but unfortunately I'm not a full member...

Orientation: Mutant and Proud Out Status: Out to everyone Location: Windsor, Ontario Age: 24 Posts: 6,564 Join Date: Jun 2005 | Hmmm what's the requirements for full membership again? I thought it was 50 posts maybe I'm incorrect though, it's been so long...

But yeah, thanks to everyone who's watched it so far, I'm glad you enjoyed it.

My little cousin has it and my other cousin has a higher form of autism

| Formerly Concretehands Full Member Gender: Male Orientation: Gay Out Status: two Location: London Town Age: 17 Posts: 1,297 Join Date: Aug 2010 | Okay, I've applied for full membership, also considering getting the Asperger's test, though I'm at a loss about what knowing this for sure would accomplish...
