Xx ALICE xX rules | Help me PLEASE. ARE these SOME SIGNS OF AUTISM? |
ok, so , i think i may have a little bit of autism there...
when i was a baby i used to rock a lot, like on a chair, and i still do. ONLY AT NIGHT. and it's like i always have to be listening to moving when i'm moving. and i have like a phobia of vomit too :S and i get anxious about a lot of things. i am not the smartes in my classes, i remember in grade 3, i always had to do grade 2 work. and i never undertstand things as much as others. but, not sounding mean or anything, i am NOT the dumbest. i am not listed as someone that needs intensive help. and im actually above average at spelling, and comprehension, etc etc. but my mum drank alcohol when she was pregnant , so this probably has done it. I WISH SHE DIDNT DRINK ALCOHOL! i wish i could be smart. my parents would be so proud :( they alway ssay GET BETTER GRADES. and i try! :( |

That's not autism. It doesn't sound like you have any disorder at all, though I suppose it's possible you have some mild cognitive impairments from your mother's alcohol use. If you're concerned, talk to your doctor. |

Rocking can be a sign of autism but it is also a way that we back track to our days in our mothers womb, hence why babies are rocked in rocking chairs. When mom is pregnant the baby is constantly rocking as mom walks and moves, so when the child is born we use these methods of rocking, curling up on our sde, etc. to comfort ourselves to those safe, simple times in the womb. We do it subconsciously but it is a way that we comfort ourselves. With autism you do it non stop because you always feel the need to be comforted. I think that you doing it at night is a habit you have formed that makes you feel calm, and safe, and probably sleepy.
As for the phobia of vomiting, that has nothing to do with autism, it is simply a personal phobia. Just like some people have phobias of heights, spiders, certain textures, etc.
As for being anxious, this could be the root to all your problems. It is probably not autism but may be a case of panic attacks, anxiety attacks, stress, or obsessive compulsive disorder. You can go to your doctor and they can prescribe you pills or therapy to combat anxiety and make you feel better.
As for you thinking that you are not smart, that may be caused by your mother's drinking while pregnant but I think that you can overcome that. If you are really struggling with grades, ask your doctor if they can test to see if your mother's drinking affected you.
Just study up and be proud of yourself. You will become something great, you just might not be great with school work but you may be great with actual work. |

Usually, to tell if you have Autism, you'd have to be older and act like a 2 year old. And you are also EDUCATED, and can comprehend with things in the world.
No, you do not have Autism. If you really want to understand what autism is, go watch a video of it, or ask a doctor. |
