Are you kidding? He's claiming to have two disorders; one of which occurs in 1 in 50 people and the other at a rate of 2-6 people per 1000 in the US population alone. Not only that, several people have lied to me saying they have AS and they have come clean later on. One of the reasons I received was "I thought it made me more of an outcast, like in an Anime". So of course I'm going to be skeptical.

He is able to sympathize with people at times with ease as well as completely ignore them. Anger Level isn't faking. Just because you have horrible friends doesn't mean you can judge Anger. You don't know him, don't judge him. This is the internet, where are boys are boys, girls are boys and children are fbi agents. Talking the way you do will only make you look stupid.

Yeah, it was completely idiotic of me to not observe over a forum AL's behavior through posts. [i]"Anger Level isn't faking"[/i], and other than what he has told you and what you think, what evidence do you have to go on?

[i]"Talking the way you do will only make you look stupid."[/i] Oh contraire, it is you who look stupid by belching out a load of opinions and passing them off as facts. You're telling me that I don't know Anger so I shouldn't judge him? Do you know him any more than I do? You've never met him in person. Even if you do talk to him he could have just of easily been spewing lies right at you.

[/quote] What opinions am I giving? The ability to be very sympathetic and very ignorant as well as repetitive interests are signs of AS. I've certainly been in more topics with him than you have and have read more of his posts. I know quite a few people here by name, even the site owner himself. I am naturally paranoid due to my past and see past lies easily.

Picture of your statement or you don't have either and you're just a grimy attention whore. Black out your name and such on MS Paint if you want to.

I don't particularly care if he's lying or not (what difference does it make?), but asking for medical documents over the internet is kinda creepy.

Besides, even if we assume he [i]is [/i]lying, it at least facilitates the conversation at hand- which is of course, mental disorders.

Onto the actual topic. Schizophrenia runs in my family, though it hasn't materialized in a bad way through the last two generations. My grandmother was hit in a pretty bad way, however, and I'd consider it the second most horrifying mental illness in terms of destroying your brain, right next to Alzheimer's. It's a pretty terrifying state to be in, and I've been paranoid of hallucinations since I learned that was a hallmark of the disorder (since age 14)- which is especially bad, since I tend to have mild auditory hallucinations on a semi-regular basis (usually it's just imagining someone is yelling my name from a distance, but on rare occasions it does become slightly more esoteric). Of course, it's also possible that my fear of hallucinations paradoxically makes me believe I've been hallucinating.

If you can't see the opinions yourself then I weep for general. .-.
Exactly my point, you can't make an observation based off posts. Scientists observed a forum aimed at autistic people and found out the majority of the users on that site were atheist. They then went on to publish an article that said the majority of autistic people are atheist, based on that. It doesn't make it true, the majority of people that use forums tend to be atheists. Do you see where I'm coming from?

I personally don't believe all this stuff about your past either. But tbh, I don't know you. So I'm not observing your posts and jotting down note like the way you openly talk about your past with rape when from a psychologists point of view you probably should be more recoiled about the entire subject. I don't know you personally and haven't seen your body language etc when you talk about this stuff. Nor have you AL.

Don't worry, nobody on this forum has anything wrong with them. We're all 100% healthy teenaged males because that's the most likely demographic that would visit this forum.

So going by that logic, AL 100% has something wrong with him because the majority of people that would visit this forum are people with disorders? Either way you have no proof to say so and nor do I. I was stating an opinion, you were trying to contradict my opinion. An opinion can't really be contradicted now, can it? .-.

It seems Fusion and I are pretty normal, but I have OCD. Kind of expected that...

I do think the test is slightly inaccurate, because I have all the symptoms of schizotypal, but much more minor. The test only looks at if you have a symptom of it or not, while not looking at the severity of the symptom.

Disorder | Rating
Paranoid: Moderate
Schizoid: Low
Schizotypal: High
Antisocial: Low
Borderline: Moderate
Histrionic: Low
Narcissistic: Moderate
Avoidant: High
Dependent: Low
Obsessive-Compulsive: Moderate

Note: I don't know what half these words mean.

I seriously thought I was going to get Very High in Anti-Social. I really did.
Same for Obsessive-Compulsive.
If you beg to differ on the last, you should see how OCD everyone on Minecraft thinks I am...

The only ones I agree with are Schizoid and Histrionic.
(A schizoid personality shouldn't be considered a mental disorder in my opinion, they're just jealous)

I got Schizotypical/Antisocial/Narcissistic because sometimes I don't take rules, social conventions and laws seriously.
Even then, I'm a really empathetic and forgiving person, I just believe that [u]regulations[/u] are for idiots who can't [u]regulate[/u] themselves and that things are not inherently good or bad.

Still, I do what I can and try to be more open with people, and it's kinda fun I guess.
This is a yes/no test, I told you not to expect much.
