    hey all,

    i am also autistic. i have a high functioning autism leaning towards the aspergers side i believe. i have not been formally diagnosed (other than by my wife) but i always knew something was a little off. how nobody noticed i am autistic is a mystery. or maybe they did know. definitely i am not "normal". i am now 30 years old but shockingly i only found out last year that i am autistic. it totally blew my mind. much like this website does. all i can really think is wtf! how is this all even possible? is this even real? how can this be? all this time i don't know why everything seemed so normal and then all the sudden things are no longer normal in life. huh, who knew?

    cameronjcw, i know exactly how you feel because i have struggled in similar ways. i really, really, really hate doing the dishes, which reminds me... i am supposed to be doing them right now. i also absolutely hate if i step on dirt on the floor for some reason. but i have learned to adapt quite well through life. luckily i found a beautiful woman a few years ago on icq, back when it was popular i literally searched for her and found her and kept her, and then we got married last july. she is a child and youth counsellor and she teaches me things all the time about myself and how to deal with all the challenges i face. but now that i have read many of the things on this website she probably thinks i am nuts. and as she might say, who cares what other people think, it simply doesn't matter what they think, it is their own problem, not yours. go sing and dance and be happy and it doesn't matter if you are a "walking disaster". you in fact are not. you are a beautiful creation, a work of art, even if you think you're broken. do not put thoughts like that in your head. what you tell others about yourself actually can affect yourself. there is a name for it but i can't think of it right now. it was first described to me in the book the power of intention by wayne dyer which i would highly recommend you check out. i don't even know you but i know myself and i know some things are not easy but you can only do what you can do. sometimes it may not seem like it but i know for a fact we can do things, and think things other "normal" people cannot. i think we are all normal, and we are all here, right now. what is not normal about that? surround yourself with cheerful things and smile. it doesn't matter if anyone sees you or hears you. if anything they would be jealous that they aren't able to allow themselves to be so happy. or maybe you will put a smile on their face and make them happy too.

    to megalithicme, if you haven't tried this, and everyone who is autistic or thinks they might be, and for all i know anyone else might benefit from this in some way, go try the gfcf diet. i must warn that it's hard and can cost extra money, but it totally works. it is probably the closest thing to a cure for autism. i have been on that diet ever since i found out and people say i have become more social and happy, i can think better, things are clearer. in other cases it has an even more dramatic effect on people. it is a gluten-free, dairy-free diet. specifically all gluten protein and casein protein must be cut. also, i don't eat any red meats if i can help it. no processed sugars, no preservatives, no carmel colour, and even cutting out apples and corn can be tested as some people say that helps. there are probably other suggestions out there as well. there are plenty of websites which explain this type of diet in detail. i recommend reading many, not just one. the diet takes some getting used to but it is definitely worth it.

    now if i accidentally eat something with gluten or casein protein in them my face kind of feels like it goes a little numbish, and then i may get a little wild. then later i think i may get some sort of withdrawal symptoms and get a bit angry or something. it seems to take a couple days until i start to feel right again.

    to be continued...

    the problem with these proteins is that they don't get digested properly because the body does not produce the proper enzymes to break them down. so they end up leaking into the body as peptides which go to the brain and over time can cause more damage. it is literally like being on a morphine drip. even a trace of these proteins can set the diet back a couple weeks so it is very important to be very cautious about what all the ingredients are in the foods. it is not easy but once you have learned, after a couple months it isn't so bad. it just can be a little pricey if you don't make your own foods.

    it also can be useful to leave vegetables uncooked or at least not cooked much. supposedly it's good to have things as close to the way nature intended them. i don't know if cooked things are a problem really. i feel they are just more fresh and healthy for me not cooked.

    i also don't go out much anymore. but, i don't really mind it when i do. in fact i love it once i get out. it just can be really hard to step out the door and face anyone, or risk facing anyone. and if i don't have a destination i may end up walking for hours only to have to come back eventually. sometimes it might be good to just decide to go somewhere first. for example, if it's a sunny day i could go sit on a bench in the park for a bit and maybe bring a book to read and then come back.

    i think interacting with people is good though, eventhough i sometimes really see no point to it or am just too shy to. it must be good for me and i should probably make more of an attempt to go out and interact, though sometimes i have no problem being social whatsoever and maybe i become a little too wild and it is hard to find a balance because apparently i just don't pick up on social cues as easily or something. but i was very lucky to grow up with a great family and a brother who was a couple years younger than me, and eventually a little sister. i think that all probably helped me out a lot, especially having a brother close to my age who i could grow with and learn from. i became fairly social in high school and had many friends who i hung out with. i also wrote lots of letters and talked on the phone to friends, especially girls for some reason. i am not an attractive guy but the attractive women sure seem to enjoy my company. it is a mystery. but perhaps one of the benefits from not holding back. i did not know i was autistic at that time, we all just thought i was a little crazy or something.

    i eventually stumbled across hypnosis when i was 15 or so and started hypnotizing people and myself and meditating and whatnot and i feel this also really helped. this is when i truly discovered something was up with the subconscious that nobody really seemed to understand or talk about. i had many unusual experiences while experimenting with subconscious minds. i was a little nutty the entire time through school but i made it. unfortunately not without a post traumatic stress disorder due to car accidents and now i really hate cars and i sometimes seem to have panic attacks thinking about going somewhere in one. i am working on that by using emotional freedom technique (eft) but i think i would rather walk or fly or teleport if i could. definitely check out eft.

    so there is many things you can do to help yourself. the fact is, it can be a challenge. but everyone faces challenges in life. this is ours.

    another thing i find that helps me feel better is to do at least 50 sit-ups and 10 push-ups a day.

    now that i know about this positive/negative stuff in the universe i am also attempting to let love flow from me as much as i can. sometimes i feel it so much that i just feel completely overwhelmed with emotion and joy. simply thinking that thought causes that to happen for some reason and tears will swell up. i just want to envision love flowing into everything and everyone around me and out into the world to everyone and around the world and even throughout the entire universe. i have come so close to dying so many times i am not afraid of anything. i am starting to think we don't ever die in our own life so what is there to be afraid of? the only thing is this ego thing which i tell to go f off and smile and be happy. you can find beauty in anything. the simple fact we are here right now is just amazing. so if all that beauty were to all go away in the next second, that is perfectly fine, i don't have to be afraid of that. i at least appreciate the fact that i am here right now and able to feel these feelings of love and happiness and share them with you and everyone else. the energy will flow as it flows. and right now its all good.

    hi again,

    i just wanted to say that i had a dream last night and i think i was with my brother and what seems to be a guide of some sort. i don't really remember what the guide was saying to me or if it was even saying anything at all but it feels like it was telling me i wasn't doing something properly or didn't say something properly. i almost forgot the dream when i woke up but something i thought reminded me of it. in the dream i was trying to skip rocks in some muddy water but it wasn't working properly for some reason, no matter what sort of stones i gathered or how i tried to toss them.

    i feel like it means that i either do not offer love properly or that it is misunderstood that i only wish to offer love out to everything and that it is the choice of anything which can make choices to receive it or not. it is not my intention to destroy or hurt anything or anyone which does not want love or can't accept it for whatever reason. i don't know if that really fits with the dream or not but i just had to come here and make that clear for anyone who happens to read my posts and is inspired to try radiating love out. i don't really even know why i am posting this but i guess it must be important somehow. hopefully i didn't remember or interpret the dream wrong somehow.

    the icing on the cake is that asperger's syndrome is commonly referred to as "wrong planet syndrome" because the person feels so out of place here.

    i find it really fascinating, well beyond coincidence, that i happened to begin looking into as and the concepts of wanderers / starseeds at roughly the same time. i noticed so many similarities as i looked into both that it was staggering. i was recently diagnosed with as, but i had suspected i was for quite a few years. i had a friend who worked with people that had autism, one of which was her roommate. as she described the symptoms, and i observed him, i couldn't help but think how much it sounded like me. *chuckles* now that i've been diagnosed, it makes me smile to think "ahh, that's just what earth people call wanderers! hehe..." ra says in the law of one that a very small percentage of wanderers will ever realize what they are, or remember their past, while most will just feel that there is something not right. the intense feeling of loneliness and detachment that wanderers tend to experience resonates in me, and directly correlates with the social symptoms and difficulties described by as.

    i've also been involved with metaphysical forums and groups, to discuss things like energy work, higher selves, and past lives. so naturally i was floored when i started reading the law of one. there is a large growing community of people who feel that they are different from most people, in a very base and fundamental way. as if their spirit is something other than human, or they are from another place. for obvious reasons, they are rarely open about this to others, the exception being communities of like minded people, so it's my firm opinion that there are a *lot* more wanderers out there than you would think. quite a number of them also describe growing psychic phenomena in their lives. some who have been diagnosed share the view presented in that article, that it could be a form of evolution and an advantage rather than a disability.

    by the way... thanks, hogey11, for pointing that section out. my reclusive nature and focus on self worried me, to be honest. although i do really wish the best for people in general, i found my introversion and my difficulties in social interaction to be worrisome the more i read into the law of one... although my heart is in the right place i thought my actions were more service to self, despite my caring and supportive nature.

    so.. theres an insider opinion, somewhat... i know autism is a far more severe condition, as is referred to as having "a dash of autism", and so i empathize with both you and your daughter.

    that's why your post was interesting to me. it seems from what you're describing that the kids are actually resisting being pulled into the "normal" world, physically and otherwise, although that couldn't be on a conscious level. maybe on a soul level they have something more important to do!

    i admire your perseverance in trying to help your daughter. i can't imagine how difficult that would be. i'm sure she will experience the shift as much as anyone else. i think it's about meeting our higher selves, and how many of us are fully conscious of that anyway! i know i'm not (yet)!

    very well put. my cousin's autistic, but the doesn't change the fact he's happy as a clam! in fact, he seems better off because he doesn't play the 'games' that are associated with everyone's ego. when i watch him, i learn, and there's no doubt in my mind he's positively polarized. just give your daughter love, don't force her in to fitting in, instead, try meeting her at her level, watch learn and love, all is well.

    finally found a threat where i can share a story from my aunts point of view.

    my aunt is a well-known european genetic. her focus is on embryonic and early child development as well as adolescence. specifically, she works with abnormalities. she's been a part of an international project for some time now, with headquarters in germany. as far as i understand they are collecting data from children with various mental and physical disorders.

    at first she was in charge of the data for the epileptics and now, for some time, she is working with autistic children. her main concern is that it is very difficult to organize the data for the autistic. they are all so very different. and where, although epileptics are very different from one another as well, from the chemistry view point it is easier to organize and categorize them.
    my aunt is a very powerful medium and if it wasn’t for that insight into things she wouldn’t have guided me to make these interesting connections. and obviously, wouldn’t tell such interesting stories =]
    when she was the head doctor at a clinic in siberia, she had two cases of autistic children displaying telepathic abilities.

    first time happened when one day a lady came in with a 4 month old child. this child did not have any physical symptoms of autism yet, only mental. the woman sat with her child sitting up in her lap facing towards my aunt. (gonna use a 4 aunt) a says that the child’s eyes and hers never met. yet she was in his area of observation at all times. he was starring her into the chest (heart) at times. a explains that the moment they sat down and faced each other, he began exchanging information with her. a could not find the woman’s file, because her file was still under her maiden name. the child telepathically explained that his mom has a new last name and that the file should be under the old. my aunt was overwhelmed and had to get up and turn away. he needed a blood test and a send him off to do so. before leaving the office, the woman declared that her child is controlling her. soon after that, a gets a call from the lab, saying that they could not drain any blood from the child because they could not hit a vain. although it is all together hard to take blood from infants, the lady that was trying to take the blood was the best one in the entire clinic. the nurse was very upset and said that this never happened to her before. later that day, they get a phone call from the mother who says the child would not stop crying the whole day and that even his temperature went up. although the child had extraordinary abilities, it seems that he had an overloud from my aunt’s energy. also, a underlines that these children have a very specific cry, unlike any other.
    the second event occurred with her close friend, who also had an autistic child. the mother of this child claims that he knows exactly when she will go down to the market and sticks clay into the keyhole. my aunt suggested that maybe he is aware of the time she leaves at. to this, the mother said that one time she thought of going to the market in the morning before he wakes up. when she got ready to go, she found once more the clay in the keyhole. she assumes that when she had that thought in the evening while passing by the child’s room, he picked up the information.
    now, here comes the science. although all the data my aunt collected so far greatly varies and is hard to categorize there is one thing that is the same for all the autistic children. the frontal lobe contains a lot of the nuts and bolts that help us analyse and make connections. there are obviously special chemicals and cells responsible for this. i do not quite remember their names, but that is not the point. my aunt says, that if i have 30 cells there and she has 40, then any autistic child will have more than the two combined, or even much more! (hence, the rain man).

    this is how these kids communicate. pretty much it shows that the brain can evolve and that with proper timing and mutation of all parts of the brain simultaneously we will be both physically and mentally able to do what these kids are doing. they are abnormal only because this development occurred only in one part of the processing system. and thus all the other parts have to be drained of energy to keep the frontal lobe over-active.

    love and light,
    ra ma

    what? i don't even have a daughter
    and i wasn't really talking about curing anybody. i was just sharing my aunts research and her personal opinions about these children because she is both a scientist and a medium.

    sorry, if i caused some misunderstanding to occur. or maybe it was someone else's post you are referring to and accidentally used my name?
    anyways,

    much love and light,
