My brother has stiffness of limbs, speech problems (getting caught in sentences, stuttering, saying the same thing over, and over, and over). He also talks kinda funny, he has a normal voice, I heaer it sometimes, but alot of times he talks loud and kinda high pitched and screechy. I think it is more than puberty, he has always talked like that. He pronounces words kind of strangely, too. Like he accents and pronounces my name SHEER-ee, when everyone else around him has always said it sher-EE. I always used to yell at him, if only I knew he couldn't help it!
he fidgets CONSTANTLY and dazes out. Is very intelligent but cannot communicate his thoughts properly, through talking and even writing, and his handwriting is atrocious. I have heard that Aspergers get frustrated because they have all of these brilliant thoughts and ideas but cannot get them down on paper, or out of there mouth.
He also makes odd noises out of nowhere, but that is getting better as he gets older. The stuttering has improved too. It used to be exhausting listening to him tell you one story. He also has social problems, his best bud calls him like five times a day, but my brother has never called him once.
he always has to have his way, and can excel at any video game, but not even toss a ball.
how much of this has to do with being a product of his TV watching, video game playing, ritalin prescribed era and being the 'baby' to my mom, I have no idea.
Hope I kinda helped?
