I have Asperger Syndrome, which makes me lack social skills, become particularly clumsy, tend to act before I think, and have difficulty balancing. Because of this, I still am unable to ride a bike.
I also have Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, known to most as ADHD, so I find it difficult to focus on much of anything and am hyperactive frequently. This also adds to my disability to think before acting.
In addition, I have Muscular Dystrophy, which makes me physically weaker than the majority of people. It takes me extra effort to lift something or even stiffen my arms than it does for most.
As many of you know, I have Insomnia. Insomnia is a disorder in which it becomes very difficult to get to sleep at night. Most people have experienced this once or twice. I'm different, however, because I experience this every night of my life. It is quite common for me to go to bed at 10:00 P.M. and not get to sleep until after 3:00 A.M. As a side effect, though, I can operate easily with very few hours of sleep, which is probably a plus.
The list goes on. I have a Superiority Complex, though not very strong. I tend to think myself above others, and am much more likely to think that I am right and they are wrong. I do not mean for this, but it is still there.
I'm not sure what this is officially called, or if it counts as a disability, but I can create new personalities at will. Some of you may remember FOOD invading the chat and trolling it. FOOD later turned out to be me. It may interest you to know that, before that, I had never trolled anybody in my life. To create FOOD, I made a brand-new "trolling-ish" personality that is still in my mind today. I can switch to it whenever I please.
I have a mild form of Intermittent Explosive Anger Disorder, which means that, when I get really angry, I cannot control myself and go into a fit of rage. I will do things that I will regret later. Coupled with the next disorder, this could be dangerous. Thankfully, it rarely happens, but when it does, only the bare basics of common sense hold me back from hurting others or smashing my belongings. I say that it's mild, because, unlike many, I DO hold back. I have never caused any serious damage yet. In addition, as I mentioned, it is very difficult for me to get angry.
I am not necessarily either narcissistic or have psychopathy, but I do lack empathy. I don't care if a child just died in a gun raid, or if somebody drove into a river and drowned, assuming it was a state away or further. I try to care, to imagine myself in their steps, but I simply don't care.
Until recently, I suffered from Achluophobia, Arachnephobia, Athazagoraphobia, Atychiphobia and Altophobia, but I suffer little from any of them now. I do, however, have Aeroacrophobia, which is a fear of high, open places - so much so that the majority of my nightmares involve me falling form the top of a skyscraper with no railings, and Apiphobia (strange how I only have phobias that start with "A" isn't it?), which is fear of bees, though this is largely due to the fact that I am allergic to Bee Stings.
As you can clearly see, I'm messed up.
To Shorty, who was immortalized in an adventure.
To Marinus, who was my community older brother.
To Janet, who I will remember every time I wear a toque.
May these lost Wonderlanders find true adventure beyond us.
