    Echolalia/ Palalia

    Just curious, anyone else on these forums have echolalia/ palalia? In a nutshell, they are a speech 'tic' where you repeat your own or another's spoken language. I have it and wondering if others here can relate?

    List all of the symptoms of asperger's please?

    I scored a 45, I reviewed my answers before submitting. I would like psychologist confirmation but probably not worth the money at this point. It would be nice to have official confirmation though.

    Does anyone know of a Christian group home for adults with mild autism??

    Thanks for checking into this for me. However, in keeping with the OPs original message- I would like to find a Christian-based Aspie/ASD group to meet with. There is a GRASP meeting in Denver once a month but that is actually quite a distance from me and is not Christian. It would be nice to...

    Does anyone know of a Christian group home for adults with mild autism??

    I am looking for the same here in Colorado but have had no success. I thought about starting a Meetup group but is expensive considering it may not work out.

    I agree. I reported inappropriate content on WP and it was handled in a matter of minutes and appreciated by the moderator.

    Just Wondering...

    'And do not get drunk with wine, for that is debauchery, but be filled with the Spirit' Ephesians 5:18. I feel as Christians we are to be of sober mind, whether referring to alcohol or drugs. I think there are better coping methods available than marijuana our alcohol.

    Glad to be of help! :D I also hope others sign the petition - this is too important to ignore!

    My peers dismiss Autism as "SIN"

    Our story is similar- our son is 20 with HFA and he loves the Lord. He is passionate about his faith and isn't afraid to tell people about it. To say autism is sin is ignorant-we were all born into a world of sin!

    How it feels to be diagnosed with AS

    Getting an accurate diagnosis would be beneficial, but getting a conflicting diagnosis might just make things more confusing... :confused: Lots of research into a good, reputable ASD clinic/ psychologist is highly recommended. I used a leading university because I thought they would be more...

    Rant!

    In my opinion, being self diagnosed (or not) really doesn't mean much verses obtaining an official dx. I can relate to Brody's autobiography perfectly (mine spans over 10 years of exploring AS) and when I finally went in to get diagnosed, I ended up PDD-NOS (which I really don't agree with)...

    SIGN the petition to stop the new DSM-V changes, from GRASP

    I just signed the petition (from my own mail box- not from this link) and it worked. I also tried your link and it seemed to work fine (of course I couldn't fill it out since I already filled it out).

    Different psychiatrists have different criteria for Asperger's?

    I completely agree with you. Refer to my previous post here 'Asperger's / PDD-NOS Diagnosis' (sorry the forum wont let me link it). Obviously, you must have some indication our you wouldn't have seeked a neuropsychiatrists opinion. It seems a bit unprofessional to dismiss your concerns in 30...

    Auties and Aspies birth month

    Mine is October. But isn't 'cold month' somewhat suggestive? Where I live, there are more cold months than hot ones.

    My peers dismiss Autism as "SIN"

    I would just say they are being judgemental and dismiss them. In the Bible, I don't remember Jesus blaming people for their physical conditions- he just cared for them.

    who all has autism or asberpergers?

    I consider myself Asperger (I fit the criteria) but officially am PDD-NOS.
