And even if it is present in me so what? That'd make me no different tomorrow than I am today or was yesterday. Huzzah! And I agree with the stance on medicating kids, as I for one was subject to it pretty much in order to shut me up. That was one of many reasons why I was very very happy to go into foster care when I was 15. People there actually gave a damn enough to interact and try to help instead of feel obligated to do so by law; or even worse just ground me to lay in bed for the entire summer ('97) so there's no worry of me causing chaos. It makes me wonder about the serial killers that grew up all normal and tra-la-la compared to rockstars like GG Allin, Marilyn Manson and such who had some extreme shit happen to them which helped result in who/what they became. And I have my gravatar activated for both of my main email accounts, and checked upon it earlier just to be sure. The main one I use for here is a gmail account although you will occasionally (especially earlier) find my aol account. But both are registered and use the same icon. 'Tis funky. Indeed; point taken.

It's more of a quality, like left-handedness. I don't believe in medicating kids- I think it changes the way the brain develops with age and causes probable permanent differences. And are you using the same email address you normally use? Gravatars are determined by email. Asperger’s is a form of autism, and thus isn’t an illness. It’s more of a quality, like left-handedness.

I'm used to how I am and even though I may not like myself sometimes, fuck it. I go back and forth between the medication debate as I'd rather not be a slave to mind altering chemicals outside of recreational ones that are an at will basis rather than strict scheduling to maintain a "Normal" mindset. At the same time though I can't help but think maybe due to having been on a slew of medications throughout my childhood and adolescence, as well as just how distinctively odd people have observed me as that maybe I could make more progress with less episodic periods if I get a decent diagnosis and treatment. IDFK I'm rambling and I need to be in bed if I'm going to do anything progressive later today. And my damn gravatar isn't showing up. No biggie, but it's a nuissance. I've given up trying to properly spell that annoying fucking word.
