autism and aspergers are different. Many people will aspergers may not even realize they have it too much later on. I see no reason to not believe that Abz has Aspergers

I have mild aspergers syndrome, I've been programming (coding) computers since the age of 12 as a hobby whilst having just completed my masters in Architecture. I've never had a group of friends or really a best friend, as I think social groups are just benign. Although I do care about people and im not arragont or stuck up.
ABZ DOES NOT HAVE ASPERGERS. Someone who was in a boy band could never have aspergers, and the only social problems he may have in the house may stem from depression, probably to do with his career and lifestyle binge. Another clue in this lie, is that he says hes doing yoga and lives a detoxifying life. In a way where people will think hes excessively individualist enough to pass off as Aspergers. Although I sympathize with his depression, I think he's being a bit fraudulent and adding to the already bloated BANDWAGON that is Aspergers. EVERYONE IS CLAIMING ********* ASPERGERS... NO! |

[QUOTE=08marsh;6338906]Opinion is fine. Judgement about someone's medical diagnosis with no possible way of knowing the facts is not.
Which is why I'm reserving judgement at the moment, as previously stated, if you'd care to read my posts with any diligence. However, getting back to the point, my opinion is that Abz needn't have broadcast his alleged Asperger's on national tv - I'm not sure that was necessary, other than to possibly create a wave of sympathy. And my original point was that I felt it was unusual for a person with Asperger's to want to be so acutely in the public eye. Not impossible - just unusual. Neither you, I nor anyone else frequenting this forum knows anything solid about Abz's 'medical diagnosis', and so it is supposition and speculation on all of our parts. |

It's hard enough to diagnose people who really have aspergers, without people leeching off the syndrome to get sympathy..
those with it get bullied, isolated, under-rated etc.. with it now being trendy and emo, those actually with it get mistaken, bullied, etc... it makes people think Aspergers is just about being 'shy, reserved' etc..... |

I just dont believe he could have led that lifestyle in the 1990s and now after the split, untreated post-depression turns into 'aspergers' .. it confuses the actual syndrome.

it would not be the normal situation for someone with Aspergers but I don't really know his mindset or actions at the time so I'm not doing to dismiss his claim just for that

[QUOTE=Roy Mars III;6339697]Okay. That could be a possibility. Or, could it be that the drugs he's taken in excess in the past have had an adverse affect on him? There are a number of reasons why he could be the way he is. Having worked with drug abusers in the past, I've seen this type of behaviour in abundance.

well if he did lie after he lightens up a bit that'll pi$$ me off. even though as I said hes history doesnt really prove it. I bet he was 'self-diagnosed' one drunken night on a website quiz and it has changed his mental state conciously believing he is, which has molded him into some hermit. (non-aspergic hermit)

It is strange how someone having AS can suddenly recognise whether another person has it or not, I have a masters degree in AS and have met countless people upon the autism spectrum, some are easily distinguishable but others only display minor traits, often you need to get to know them much better to recognise how AS impacts upon them.
It is disrespectful to assume someone is or is not on the autism spectrum just because they do not show obvious stereotypical traits. I am not saying he is or is not but in my experience, one of the last people to recognise whether someone has AS is another person with AS. |

abz is a washed up boy band member that blew his money on drink and drugs, he gets no sympathy from me!, regardless of him having as or not.
the way he talks is a complete joke, needs to p*ss off and get a job. |

I also cant believe some of the comments Ive read on here that its for sympathy, or that it's cool? As a parent, let me tell you, its neither, and society is neither understanding nor forgiving enough for it to become a reason to gain votes in a reality show. Most people are unaware of what aspergers really is, why the hell would they vote for it?

No one can make a diagnosis of someone from reading about them in the press and watching them on TV. Not the best doctor, not the best specialist... no one.

I have aspergers myself, diagnosed by a professional earlier this year - and I am insulted by this post. The fact of the matter is, NOT ALL PEOPLE WITH ASPERGERS ARE THE SAME. FreddyTheFrog's post nailed it tbh, I agree with him. |

[QUOTE=qwerty8883;6339874]infact being on the spectrum myself i would presume that you (being an aspe) would understand the fact that people on the specturm create false personalities to deal with social situations and to manage anxiety problems
To be fair, I think a lot of non-Asperger's people are probably guilty of doing this too. For example, if going for a job interview, how many people might make themselves out to be someone/something they are not, in order to impress the interviewer? Many people suffer anxiety and stress in social situations, and I think there's a very fine line between everyday stress management with most folk, and how people with Asperger's cope with their anxiety - which is exacerbated tenfold, largely because those with Asperger's are unable to channel their emotions and anxieties in the same way. |
