Wrong Planet is a blog/forum for people on the Autism spectrum. They also have an IRC channel on freenode. I don’t go on their forum but some days I go to their IRC channel every once in a while.
And yeah. I was kinda ashamed of having it and I try to hide it as much as possible because I was mistreated by my family and school because of it.
I wasn’t really bullied in high school, but I had a para who would follow me around and it would embarrass and annoy the hell out of me, because I wasn’t allowed to be like the other kids in the school. They can hang out and be with their friends and take breaks from class, but this lady always had to sit next to me, make me do my homework and always yell at me for the slightest shit. That’s why I tried to avoid even girls that I liked because I didn’t want to know that I was the kid with the para. And all the teachers would tell her before me. I never was alone and allow to do things and speak for myself.
And also my dad and my grandmother would talk down to me about it every time I made them angry and said that I was a mistake because of it.
