OK, guys, I've decided that enough is enough and it's time for me to reveal something about myself that I have only told a few others on this site:
I am Autistic.
Back in 2003 I was diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome, a high functioning form of Autism.
If you want to know more about this disorder, you can look it up on Wikipedia or Google it

However, there are a few things you need to know about me related to this disorder:
My "Obsessions" are:
-Commercial aircraft
-Creative writing
-Work
One thing that could be a challenge for other people to handle:
I can sometimes get nervous and call, IM or message people multiple times in one day. I am not TRYING to push people away intentionally. I'm slowly getting better at this.
Also, whenever someone decides to "leave" me (like block me or stops responding to my messages for months on end, it HURTS. It takes a while for me to recover from it, but I do eventually.

ok. I've said my piece, now it's up to you guys. I realize I might lose some buddies and possible matches over this, but at least now my conscious is clear and I've come clean. Although I wish I would've done this a LONG time ago.

I have a good appreciation of certain aspects of your condition. It affects those who suffer from in many different ways. You should not be worried about the reaction of others. For everyone that avoids you for "coming out" you will get a new friend

Same I was diagnosed in 2010 after years of saying that I was not bipolar because I had many more symptoms not associated with bipolar. So I was tested and tada it was autism spectrum thanks for bringing it up and coming out kinda. I hope that you have a good one and if u ever wanna talk, shoot me a message.

Bravo for your courage in talking about this. For most of the wrestlers I know, this would not be an issue. And you know how I feel about your pics and media files... : )

I don't know how anyone could down-vote this... In any case, good on you to share this information and if it makes you feel light for it, so much the better! - In any case you'll always be midwestheel to me ;)

There seems to be someone here who systematically adds a "thumb down" rating even to the most positive, up-beat posts. Why on earth? It's so sad.

My best friend has the same diagnosis. Once when he realized he had done something a little bizarre that would have annoyed me if i didn't care about him, he said "sorry man, sometimes I mess up, it's no fun being referred to as an assburger all the time." People who know and respect you will gladly put up with the occasional problem your condition may produce. Be open about things, anyone worth knowing will be cool with it.
