I'm sketchy on saying it's anything like paranoid personality disorder but I do have some kind of paranoia issue.

As long as it doesn't interfere with your normal living, it's not really a disorder.Toy Chica said:

So, yeah, it's probably not a disorder. It's not like you're losing sleep or your social health is really bad, right?Toy Chica said:
Well it's interesting with me since I was checked by a couple of people, and one said that I was "normal" while the other said I had "high functioning form of aspergers", which is already a high-functioning for of autism in itself, so it makes me feel like it was a misdiagnosis due to the fact that I was really awkward in high school as well as just being an introvert that didn't really socialize until later High School/college. I mean, I know I'm different from others, but not in the way that a lot of people with aspergers/autism deal with (and yes, I know that like with other "quirks" it varies from person to person). The biggest thing I deal with nowadays is my strong fear of confrontation, which can be annoying when you're in a major where you have to work and communicate with people a lot and perform and be critiqued basically every day of your life.

It could be diagnosing criteria that is more visibly apparent in boys than girls. This was the case when it came to ADHD. Furthermore, what complicated the situation was that I was considered intelligent (I haven't taken IQ tests, but I've been told by numerous teachers and students that), so I was probably able to compensate for the problems I had. At worst, my grades were underwhelming. Which is why I wasn't diagnosed until middle school.The Ultimate Pwwnd123 said:
That being said, I don't think I have Asperger's syndrome. I feel empathy a lot of times, although I consciously avoid displaying it. And I have a fair few interests: birds, drawing, Mario, video games, the weather, general science, astronomy, wiki editing, critical thinking, etc. and I don't monologue about my interests to people clearly not interested in it.
There's always a chance, though, and I'm open to the possibility of being diagnosed to Aspergers, but I doubt it.
This sounds like something a lot of people go through, not only people with aspergers or so. I'm shy and extremely awkward in high school, having VERY little friends, but I think it's from my own strong introversion and specialized interests (I don't get to see people actually interested in birdwatching or Mario games, or maybe they're really shy too).Lapis Lazuli said:
I wouldn't have guessed if you had Aspergers since you seem pretty "normal" to me.

No
I have a very weak form of this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Athetoid_cerebral_palsy
Basically what people with that usually have is some kind of lingual error and/or partly non-functional legs/other body parts (for example Walter Jr. in Breaking Bad is what people with cerebral palsies usually look like).
I got none of that stuff, though I am appearently physically incapable of playing any type of sport involving fast moving objects (e.g.: balls) particularly well, and I'm also incapable of drawing better than a 5-year old (though both of those have gotten better in recent years).
Also people used to think I have some kind of ADCP-induced dystonia, but appearently not since even that got better over time (and i can literally control when those happen, simply that i choose not to when I'm in private).
Also I clicked none in the poll when really the last option is probably what fits my case the most.
