Question Posted Thursday November 2 2006, 12:22 pm

Iam 17 years old and iam not autistic but there's this boy at school who has the milder form of autisim i don't know what it is called i just know it's a milder form of it.my friends and I get so aggervated with him becouse he constantly repeats things over and over even though i know he can't help it i get so annoyed i start screaming at the poor boy.I even get mad at him if he stares at me for know reason even though i know it's probally becouse of his autisim and he can't help it.I don't talk to him about it I just start screaming at him like iam crazy or something and i know iam being a bitch to him right now and i feel terrible and I cry myself to sleep at night thinking about just all the terrible things i say by screaming at him i just feel so horrible and feel like such a bitch right now I just want to try to change and be nicer to him or at least stop screaming at him sometimes i even think about slapping him,but i just say to myself remember Rachel he can't help it he's autistic and that keeps me from slapping him if i feel this bad i can just imagine how he feels at night.I feel so bad about the way I treat chad that yesterday i really thought about committing suicide so I couldn't treat chad that way anymore so he wouldn't have to have a horrible day at school every single day please help me change.......

I know this might sound crazy but I have an idea for you. I think that you should talk to Chad about it. Tell him that you don't mean the things you say and that you really want to change. Basically, say most of the things you said here. Ask him to forgive you. Talking to him about it should help you feel a lot better. It'll also probably make him feel better too. He'll know that you don't hate him and that you are sorry. I'm sure he's a strong person and he understands what is happening more than you think. Maybe he doesn't take what you say badly at all. You can never know unless you talk to him.

As great as it would be you can't just snap your fingers and change. You know you want to change and you know what you want to change, so that's a great start. It will take some time, but I think that it will be much easier if you and Chad can come to an understanding. I think it would be even easier if you got to know him a little better. Try to be a friend to him. I know that might not be possible because of social pressure, but at least try to find some of the good things there are about him.

If you are dedicated enough to stop what you're doing, you can. Don't let your image or your reputation get in the way of what you know is right. What you think of yourself is much more important what other people think. Good luck!

Hey!

Well I worked in a special education class room at my school and sometimes I did get aggrivated and wanted to scream but I just tried talking to them even though they may not fully comprehend it they are great listeners! Just try to ask him why do you like looking at me or another way maybe is to find out what he likes like some kids like coloring or some like toy cars and if you find out that he likes coloring just go to like the dollar store and buy him a coloring book and when he starts staring at you hand him the book and most likely if he is interested in it he will focus on the book instead of you.

Hope it all works out!

What you have to understand is that you have to change yourself.. It's sounds really dumb of you for you to cry about something that you yourself are inflicting upon someone else. How do you think he feels? He is the one that gets screamed at but all you can do is think about yourself. The one thing that you can do to help is get over your selfishness and learn compassion for others. Only then can you even begin to understand what another person is feeling. You are not the only one with problems and the only one that has bad times..Try to put yourself in another person's shoes once in a while, and as for your suicidal thoughts..you can completely change yourself..the power is in yourself..stop causing pain for others ,and slowly yours will go away and your life will be happier. Instead of being ashamed, think of how good it would feel to be proud of the way you treated someone with a disability like that.
