My problume.

Ok, After 22 years of age thinking back over my life Ive always felt rathar off compaired to the norm of everyday people and there networking. People my whole life always told me Im strange and I dont communicate right or well and cant focus on things. I talked to my brother recently about this and he told me Ive always had an issue with how I view and rationalize things. I decided to start looking online at a lot of stuff and basicly to make this short I think I have Asperger Syndrome. Of course I will go get checked out and diaignoced. Anyways people that have know me for a long time would probuly agree If they looked into it but anyways...So I have a few issuse to work out, well medication probuly would get me on track but I have a really addictive personality as people would confirm and I dont wanna do the pill routine. I was think herb for sure sence I couldnt OD atleast. I know Id have to get the right kind,regular street weed dosnt do it for me, The kind that would make things more smoother for my everyday living. I live in wisconsin so I cant get medical herb I dont think. Just thinkin about how to get some or what seeds I should get to grow my own(this is possible). Any helps appreciated.

Eventually enough disorders will be invented/discovered, no matter how insignificant or severe, to categorize every single person on earth. I'm sure that even now if everyone were to be psychoanalyzed enough that we'd all find some disorder or disease to latch onto for us to blame our problems on. Yep, I'm saying we're all fucked up to some degree, anyone who makes claims of normality are suffering from some kind of denial disorder or ego crap...

Cannabinoid supplements are missing from our diets. I'm sure it can help us all, even the stubborn non-believers that think they get by just fine without it... just gotta find the right strain to address the predicament you're facing.

Actully people who are doctors go to school for many years and study behavioral patterns through medical research rathar then "throwing it to the wind", I think Id rathar go to a professional.
I respect your right to reply but please with hold your Opinion, I made this thread for Help, I already did metion in my post above that I need to aquire a certain strain.

You sorta misunderstood me. I was saying that everyone has problems, and the root of those problems can possibly be categorized as a disease or disorder... which does take lots of studying, not blind guess work. Hence, if they study everyone for long enough they're likely to give a label for every little quirk or abnormality they discover.

Don't worry yourself too much from trying to self-diagnose it. I have a friend with Asperger's but I never would have known he had anything until he told me, because he's much more intelligent and functional than average people.... though he's a bit odd. I'm an oddball and found I had several signs of it as well, but not quite enough to label me with it.... I might have something even less than that, but I'm not trying to look for more problems than I already have.

All we can do is tell you which strains to try but it's totally up to how your body handles each strain; you won't know until you try the right ones. It's trial and error just like with other prescribed treatments. Good luck with weeding out all the ones that don't work, I have no idea which kinds would help with Asperger's but I'd guess it'd be something more on the Sativa side.

I agree with GreenDestiny.

I also think that the "science" of psychology is complete bullshit, behavioral patterns aren't who we are! I firmly believe that "professional" opinion on this matter is generally misguided, they seem to be more interested in prescribing drugs than in helping people with what's bothering them (because they can't do just that any other way). The human mind is an enigma, and no amount of scientific research is going to unveil it's workings.

I used to go to school with this guy with Asperger's Syndrome. We debated on the same squad and he was a FUCKING GENIUS, but completely socially stunted: rude and mean to other people, very introverted, and just a little "strange." He was super opposed to drug use, so I don't know how he would have fared on the magical herb, but it seems like it would do wonders to lift certain social reservations and make you feel more comfortable in public.

Drugs and Other Treatments as they Relate to The Spectrum



The examples fall into the "politically sensitive" area. This is because of the nature of autism and Asperger's syndrome as personality types. Therefore drug therapies are likely to focus on temporarily altering the patient's perceptive state (rather than "curative" or attempting to reduce disease symptoms). Drugs in this category are hallucinogens.
Since hallucinogenics are used recreationally, their use for psychological treatment becomes a political issue. The recreational interest in these drugs does not negate their ability to provide perception in a therapeutic environment.
The history of some of these treatments focused on attempts to "cure" autism. These attempts at "cure" had a negative impact on subsequent investigations of treatments using hallucinogenic drugs. In fairness, this was from a time when autism was not well-understood.
Note: I am not encouraging the use of either of these drugs. I don't have any legal problem advocating this; it's just that I don't feel like being their proponent. I don't have either the knowledge or data to conclude that either drug would be beneficial. Marijuana is fairly well-known as to its effects, but LSD-25 involves issue which suggest professional supervision.
I do strongly advocate clinical trials being performed.
Medical Marijuana (MMJ)

Medical marijuana (MMJ) is not an option in many jurisdictions. While MMJ is being advanced in connection with autism, most of the experience in MMJ for personality conditions relates to ADHD. Significantly, more "controlled study" psychological research is desperately needed. It is highly unlikely that MMJ will change the autism itself; however MMJ has the potential for therapy regarding social awareness issues.


From Autism Collaboration - www.autism.org Autism and Medical Marijuana In general these are personalities or personality disorders (depending on one's political viewpoint). A significant percentage of autistics -- probably the majority -- would object to a "cure". As noted above, it's unlikely that drugs therapy would "cure" a personality condition. MMJ treatment is focused on socialization training; not an attempt at a "cure". Such training or therapy related to "perception" would be easily evaluated, and will provide novel results for anyone researching this.
As to the issue of legal access, there are medical conditions for which the need for MMJ is more obvious than therapy for autism.

Medical marijuana is proposed to address issues of:

1. as a training aid to assist the subject in perception of social interactions
2. sensory overload (e.g., "meltdowns")
3. anxiety
