Understanding Asperger's
First, some excerpts from the internet about Asperger's.
21 masters in the field of literature, history and philosophy, including the English writer Orwell, the musical genius Mozart, and the Western philosophy master Kant, all suffered from Asperger's syndrome before his death, and even Einstein was considered to have this disease.

Generally speaking, children with Asperger's syndrome generally perform better in visual and recitation, and many scientists and mathematicians are patients with Asperger's syndrome. Generally speaking, IQs are mostly in the normal range, not particularly gifted. You will not be placed in a gifted class unless you have an IQ of over 120 on a test.

At least for Sarah. She felt that Keith was different from all the men she had ever met. ' At the end of the first date, he kissed me on the cheek and shook my hand. ' she recalled. 'It's completely different from other men, who are always drinking you glass by glass. Keith doesn't seem to be trendy or trendy at all -- I thought he was a Buddhist.
But in Aston's experience, that good impression doesn't last long. When women fall in love, they want to take care of this unsophisticated man who looks like he needs protection, and wants to help him grow up. It was only after the relationship was established that the women discovered that their own emotional needs were not being met.
Asperger's patients want to get things done. 'Aston said. 'He wants to make his girlfriend happy, but he doesn't know anything about reading words. At the beginning of their relationship, his girlfriend became the object of his crush, and his girlfriend was flattered by it. After five years, when his attention shifted to other things, he stopped saying hello to her after work and went to the garage to tinker with the car. Back then, things were completely different. Ladies often say to me, 'He either has Asperger's or the most selfish man in the world. ''

My opinion: (How to define disease and selfishness? Or is selfishness itself a disease, or is disease not a protective cap for selfishness?? Is he selfish because of Asperger's disease, or is he identified as Asperger because of selfishness What about Berger's disease? Selfishness and disease are put on by others, that is to say, it is a problem that only arises when interacting with people. Then, if a person does what he is interested in and obsessed with research, he does not care about disease and selfishness Maybe that's the way of thinking that makes things easier. There's a class of people who have a certain pattern, and people find their pattern, so they take a name and divide them into a class. As you can see, this This kind of division is completely artificial. Whether it is the size of the division or the fine range, it all depends on the ability of the divider. So if it can be accurate to the extreme, then each person is actually a separate category. Compared with others, it is only Trivial reference, the greatest achievement you can make in your life depends on your own determination. Maybe Asperger's is more intelligent, but more obviously, their paranoia. How I long to be an Asperger's too Sperger's, especially when I'm surrounded by pointless complaints, negative swearing, fake dialogue. I'm a psychologically sensitive person, and I read meaning from the atmosphere around me too easily. It's too easy to open your mouth in line with the surrounding atmosphere. One result of this is discomfort and hypocrisy. I'm like a cold-blooded animal, and my body temperature will rise and fall with the surrounding temperature.)
Asperger's disease was first proposed in 1944 by Viennese physician Asperger. Due to physical and mental disorders, patients have deficits in social and communication skills, and have excessively addicted interests, but they do not affect learning or intelligence. Individual patients even have special talents or skills.
While it's impossible to definitively diagnose the condition in a deceased person, Barron-Cohen of Cambridge University and James of Oxford University are still studying the personalities of Einstein and Newton to see if they had Asperger's disease symptoms.
"Newton appears to be a classic case," New Scientist magazine reported Wednesday. "He was reticent, so engaged in his work, he often forgot to eat, and was either ignoring or rude to his few friends."
Barron-Cohn also pointed out that Einstein was also a lonely man. He was too accustomed to repeating sentences as a child. Although he has friends and speaks out on political issues, Barron-Cohn suspects that he, too, has Asperger's symptoms.

And such babies may not have difficulty in "speaking", but they are typical obstacles including language comprehension and interpersonal interaction! "Tell him, 'Okay, you can do it; do it and you'll know!' This actually means 'you better not do it'; but he may actually go 'do it and see it' , because you tell him 'do, do and see'! So the difficulty is to understand the meaning of the 'second level' of language, not the 'first level'; it will cause problems in communication!"

Asperger's syndrome ( Asperger's syndrome , Asperger's , AS for short ) is a kind of neurodevelopmental disorder , which can be classified as one of the categories of autism (Autistic Spectrum Disorder) [1] . It is generally regarded as " autism without intellectual disability " in the outside world . In the American Psychological Association 's diagnostic criteria ( DSM-IV-TR ) commonly used in psychiatry , it is called Asperger's disorder .
Barriers to interpersonal relationships, the ability to speculate about the emotions of others, is characteristic of Theory of Mind ( en:Theory of mind ) disorders. There will be special persistence in specific categories, and there will be slight disturbances in motor function. However , there are relatively few people with language barriers and intellectual disabilities like autism . Visual and recitation performance is generally good, and many scientists and mathematicians also suffer from Asperger's syndrome.
The cause is not yet clear, but studies have shown that genetics, biochemistry, viral filters, and problems during pregnancy and childbirth may all be the cause of Asperger's syndrome. The chance of developing Asperger's syndrome is 0.7%, which means 0.7 babies per 100 babies are affected.
Asperger's syndrome is named after Hans Asperger , a psychiatrist in Vienna , Austria . He first documented the condition in 1944 ; at the same time, Leo Kanner independently discovered it. Before the 1980s , society generally seldom classified autistic patients, so many family members of patients did not know that their relatives had Asperger's syndrome.
summary
Regarding the definition of Asperger's syndrome, there are various opinions about whether Asperger's syndrome is the same as high-functioning autism. Some people regard Asperger's syndrome as the same as high-functioning autism (no intellectual disability, or almost no autism) (some people think that Asperger's syndrome is regardless of intellectual disability or not, It refers specifically to autism without language barriers), but there are also opinions that disagree. Generally speaking, patients with Asperger's syndrome have normal intelligence, and even some gifted students have less language development delay [1] . In addition, there are cases where attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (AD/HD) and learning disability (LD) are concurrent. The number of physicians who attribute it to " Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD)" and developmental disorders is also increasing for reasons such as combined disorders, Asperger's Syndrome, and autism due to prejudice against words such as . Furthermore, according to the autism spectrum , it is between the able-bodied and low-functioning autism.
feature
Children diagnosed with Asperger's syndrome must have the following three symptoms [1] :
- Social deficit,
- communication deficit, and
- rigidity or restricted interest
The first two can be combined into the following phenomena:
- Incomprehensible or rigid rules about routines.
- Feeling uneasy about sudden changes, or even emotionally unstable.
- The emotional maturity of the patient is only about 2/3 of age.
- Clinging to one or more specific, non-functional behaviors.
- Difficulty distinguishing between real and virtual worlds.
In terms of interest, patients generally have one or more unusually strong patterns of interest.
In addition, like other states of the autism spectrum classification, Asperger's syndrome is also linked to gender, with about 75% of men overall. However, it cannot be ignored that when the symptoms do not appear latent (non-curative), there are some doubts about this value.
main characteristics of communication
Non-autistic people (NT: neurotypical, people with general mental state) will collect a lot of information from other people's behavior and atmosphere, and understand each other's emotional and cognitive state. People with autism, however, lack this ability and have difficulty reading mental states ( theory of mind ). In this way, people who are unable to comprehend behaviors, situations, atmospheres and emotions, even if they can see the smiles of others, they cannot understand the meaning they are trying to express. At worst, facial expressions and body language, etc., are incomprehensible based on all the other subtle differences in communication between people. Many times, they are not good at or impossible to read the meaning behind it. That is, if the words uttered from the mouth are not explained, it is impossible to understand what they are trying to express. However, this is a streak (continuum) of obstacles. There are also Aspergers who understand expressions and the intentions of others without feeling unfree. They often have difficulty making eye contact with people. He hardly makes eye contact with people, and he often feels that it is an action that makes people nervous. On the other hand, there are also types that stare into the eyes of that person without moving, as if it would make others feel unpleasant. The message from the other party (eye contact, etc.) is what they want to express. Although they try their best to understand, it is difficult to interpret the other party's psychology because of this obstacle, and most of them will appear frustrated. For example, when you greet someone you meet for the first time, you don't introduce yourself in a socially acceptable way, but there are times when you go on and on about a field you care about.
main problem
People with Asperger's syndrome, like many able- bodied people , may respond more strongly to feelings , and often respond differently to what. What they lack is a place where they "understand the emotions of others", a place where they "understand the emotions of others", a place where they can communicate their emotional state to others through subtle differences in body language and facial expressions. Most Aspergers respond by feeling unpredictably alienated from the world around them .
For example, if a teacher asks a child with Asperger's Syndrome (inquiring about things forgotten about homework), "Did the dog eat your homework?", if the child does not understand this behavior and keeps silent, the teacher will Whether it is necessary to explain that I do not own a dog, and that dogs generally do not eat paper, needs to be reconsidered. In other words, it was impossible to understand what the teacher implied from the expression and the tone of the voice. The teacher may think that the child is full of arrogance and malice, resist, and may walk away feeling frustrated . And the child, feeling strange and frustrated on the spot, stood there without saying a word.

My point of view:
About 160 people, there is one AS. And the ratio of boys and girls AS is 4~10:1. What does this information reveal? I think, probably, the exploration of the universe by human beings still requires men to work hard.
In my opinion, AS are being honest because they don't understand the literal meaning. This is the beauty part of being human, and even if I'm not an AS, I should be honest. The definition of AS in the medical profession is strict, and there are several clear symptoms. But I thought, what about people who fit only one of those points? Are they AS? Is it just mixed between normal people and AS? Why bother to think about classification, they are just people with such characteristics, I think so. So, for those who are suspected of AS, eg: Einstein, Newton, Mozart, Gates. Or look at the key to their success alone, paranoid. Indifferent and paranoid, it doesn't matter even if it is called bizarre, it doesn't matter if you are poor, they are just stubbornly thinking about the universe. Sometimes, think about it, the only friend of mankind is the universe, why not learn more about him?
Otaku can also focus on ACG for dozens of hours, and some people in Internet cafes can surf the Internet for 7 days and 7 nights in a row. Why can't they count as AS, and they are often self-deprecating and have no creation. I think it should be like this. AS's fascinated research on a certain thing is a process of thinking from disorder to order, which is a creative process, as the second law of thermodynamics says. The obsession of otaku is like a complete surrender to desire, a process of thinking from order to disorder, a process of collapse. The only thing in common is spending a lot of time on the same things.
I was suddenly interested in AS because of the movie "Adam" I watched last night, and the actor Adam was an Asperger's patient. But I think he's cute, I don't think he's weird. I saw a shadow of myself in him. But the difference is that he suffers because he can't pretend, and I suffer because I'm too good at pretending. His interest in the universe excites me. What I want to explore, I'm not running away, I just want to try my best, I just want to explore in this life.
