I'm diagnosed with Asperger's and I can't come to terms with it. I hate the idea of being abnormal, I despise fellow aspies I've met, and I still doubt the diagnosis was accurate in the first place. I've feared for years I'm schizoid instead, and the fear hasn't left.

I feel you on this. I've come to terms, but I don't feel close at all to other aspies and want no assiociation. I know a diagnosis is suppose to be a way to help symptoms, but I feel more like it's an excuse and I don't want to use it as one for my failures.

(Recently read that higher functioning ASD people are still not very likely to be self-sufficient or full time employed. Fuuuuuck.)

Wow, I sympathize. I've gotten used to it, because it gives me a kind of explanation for some things, but it's not really what I am, you know? ASD is a loose category, but it's not like how some people want it to be.

I feel you on this so hard, anon. :( On the one hand, I feel so much relief in understanding where all my frustrations come from, because it gives me more power to handle it and not beat up on myself. But I don't like being 'special' and sometimes resent it a whole lot, too. I don't get the ones who are proud of being unique, even though I'd never tell someone there was something wrong with them if they had it. It's just so frustrating to have to compensate both emotionally and mentally and I definitely get irrationally angry as if it was my birth-mother's fault or something. (She drank while pregnant, but for all I know it was hereditary.)
