Guest guest Posted December 23, 2004 Report Share Posted December 23, 2004 I don't think I injured myself more than other kids, but I did have a remarkable tendency to damage or break things (or mess things up), often belonging to other people. When I seemed to have overcome that general trait in my 20s (with some conscious effort), I thought of it as an important accomplishment.

Guest guest Posted December 25, 2004 Report Share Posted December 25, 2004 I've gotten a lot better about breaking things in my thrities but most of my teen years were spent with crutches. My mother was so concerned she sent me to modeling school to " learn how to walk and how to sit " . After months of being yelled at for being inept, I was finally kicked out of modeling school. The odd thing is, even in my thirties I am extremely concious of how I walk and sit, and very uncomfortable in my own skin. The good thing about this is it has drawn me to seek the positives of having AS - so give me time, I may never make it through a room without accidentilly kicking something but at least I'll be able to walk through the room with a smile! e > > I don't think I injured myself more than other kids, but I did have a > remarkable tendency to damage or break things (or mess things up), > often belonging to other people. > > When I seemed to have overcome that general trait in my 20s (with some > conscious effort), I thought of it as an important accomplishment.
