For all my life I was told/diagnosed by doctors that I had borderline Autism and come to find out it was depression. I don't plan on making threads like that, but once in a blue moon. However, I took months back and got the same results. For depression it was moderate to severe. We all have issues and mental health should be touched on more. Funny thing is that this disorder was named after a doctor.


Anyway, here are my results.

The question should be, do you know anyone with autism? How was the encounter that you had with that person?

Autistic people can't look you in the eye and look off when they talk to you. When I talk/speak to you I look you in the eye and carry convos.

Here's the link.

You took an online test to determine if you have a developmental disorder :dahell:?
This thread was made before years back by someone else. I know my name is tainted, but let's keep it serious.

Admitting things like this on here will be used as ammunition for future arguments
True. However, this one can't be used because I don't have autism. Also, depression is prevalent in the African-American community.

I've never been a fan of somebody just taking an online test to determine their mental health and/or disorder.

I feel like you're gunna see a bunch of stuff that may not even be true but you're going to agree with just so you can say you have something.

I remember watching this video of a girl who said she was fighting with her doctor to diagnose her with Aspergers.

I may sound ignorant as fukk but if you got to prove to your doctor you have a developmental disorder that he doesn't see you probably don't have one.

This is not the proper way to be diagnosed.
Can you provide literature on borderline aspergers?

Sure I can tell you. Borderline aspies while smart are highly functioning and act out once in a blue moon and have awkward moments. While full blown aspies need care and are often misunderstood.

I'm just going to be honest, no I'm not like DrX, but I have issues I have to sort out. It's not even about work because I get a long with people there and do what I'm told.

This will be kinda long. I suffer from depression alright. That's why I post on here as an outlet. Am I suicidal? The thoughts are just that thoughts, but not frequent. I am different from others I'll admit that, but I have a good heart and will give people my last. This isn't a pandering thread and other threads I made on Black issues are genuinely how I feel. Some may use this against me, but I don't care because you all have problems too. I worry that when my parents pass that I'll be up schitts creek. Even though they tell me I'm responsible as an adult. When I was a child I was diagnosed with depression like symptoms and borderline autism (even though I don't think I have autism because I can carry a convo with you and take joke). When I was young I had friends and etc. Same when I was a teen, but I chose to focus on studies (even invited to kickbacks with the basketball team). A lot of sh-t I brought on myself. I want no pity, but I'm not even self banning myself. I'm just not gonna post (maybe lurk articles once in a while), but I have to better myself. To be honest, I'm living in a spiritual hell right now. You don't know sometimes I think I'm a burden. I always have bad luck. Maybe, it's the young 20's idk.

To my coli brehs who accepted me for me thanks. Last time I left for 6 and something months. This time will be longer or I just might not post anymore. Just going to focus on reading, surrounding myself with positive energy, and finding my spiritual path.

Good luck brehs :salute:

I will read few of posts this morning and just bounce.
