Elana ,
I don't have Autism or Aspergers but I'm part of a carers group with a lady whose adult son has Autism and I know of a few parents of Austic children.
Congratulations on your site - it is fantastic. You've done a really good job of explaining yourself. People who have no idea of the condition or how it effects people can learn a lot from it.
I understand your feelings of people not understanding - most people don't take time to try to understand or appreciate what others go through on a daily basis with whatever problems life throws at them - they're too busy thinking about themselves - although I think in these recession times people are perhaps more aware of life in general.
Keep your spirits up no matter what .......be whatever you want to be..... Your Mom is your Angel looking after you all and coping with the worry of all her kids and how life is going to treat them. Keep up your music...it's a very important aspect of life and you are very lucky if it is part of you.
God Bless and every nest wish for you and your Mom and family in 2010.... you are an inspiration to others...........

Elana,
You did a wonderful job with this website, and your explanations of your thoughts and emotions are deeply moving. I do not have autism myself, but the feelings you describe mirror my own in many ways, such as issues with communication, feeling unheard, loneliness, etc. Though my situations are not nearly as dire as yours are, I feel I can identify with you in a number of aspects.
Your traumatic experiences -- I can only imagine what it must be like to live such a rough life, especially at school, going each and every day to a place where you feel so ostracized by those around you. It is very hard to fit in with those around you as it is, let alone with such a handicap. Don't feel like there is a mold you have to fit just because people tell you there is, Elana; nobody's perfect, and everybody has underlying insecurity about SOMETHING.
I have a friend with asperger's syndrome, and he has always been a challenge to understand. Even so, he has been one of my best friends for years, and I hardly notice or care that he has any disorder at all. We recently went to different schools, however, and I do worry about his making new friends. I know he can though, because I believe everybody has the power to make friends; some just have to dig a little deeper to find it.
I wish you the best of luck with your life's pursuit's, and do realize that even though there are lots of people who will turn a deaf ear to you because of your handicap, there are SO many others who will listen to you, regardless of whatever obstacles you may face or what kind of family you come from. Those are the people worth your time. And always remember: great minds are found even in the most unlikely of places.
Sincerely,
Caroline
