Tarnicus: Yeah I don't give the DSM and the psychs who put it together much credence though. It is too heavily influenced by pharmaceutical companies. My girlfriend is an Aspie, and as challenging as it can be at times (I cant talk, I have bipolar/ADHD diagnoses and can be very difficult to be with!) we have taken the time to get to know each other. Most times things are great. The biggest issues can be overcome with communication, and it is when she is having a melt-down and I am having an angry mood-swing that we have our challenges. Taking the time to learn who each other is has been a rewarding experience, and I have researched a lot on Autism/Aspbergers as as a result. It presents quite differently between males and females. From what I can tell, we are each on these sliding scales to some extent. I don't think a "normal" human being exists :)
I have played Savant's game, and even though I suck at it, I enjoyed it and it isn't my type of game :)
"Normality" is just a good adventure game, i guess. :D
I actually suffer from GAD with psychosomatic manifestations such as IBS and GERD. Recently i even had episodes of atrial fibrillation due to anxiety.
I also suffer from social anxiety. It's not like i have problems with normal social interations, actually i'm rather outgoing usually, but i basically lose control of my emotions whenever i'm faced by someone who is rude, authoritarian or even just too forward.
I guess everybody, more or less, has their fair share of issues.
It should be expected, tho, that anybody partecipating in this madness which is the Insomnia sale can't be entirely sane. I know if i were, i would be sleeping now. XD
