um..not being rude, but its Aspergers syndrome...and its not really rare.
but yes, i know of this. my mental mother had me diagnosed with it among with ADD, ADHD, Tourettes and a few other lovely things. she loved jamming me with pills, i was 3 when she started THAT madness.
but yes, school in the "sped" classes is a pain...it acedemicaly crippled me and caused me to be far to behind for college level work..i failed everything except art class, and my GPA is now a lovely 1.7
the socializing level of the other sped students make it hard for you to learn how to properly socialize making it also difficult to make friends.
i wasnt adopted, but my mother stole me away from my real father because she was a cheating...blankety blank blank..and didnt want him to get the satisfaction of having me and my sister. (she is a control freak)
though i too share the same history as you with the sexual abuse..its hard and its even worse if your mother was like mine and blamed you for it, and punished you..saying "its yoru fault, it takes TWO"
take it from me...im now almost 22...i have an apartment with a loving mate..yes i still have my troubles, and yes somedays its hard to think of a reason to not shut off my alarm and sleep another 4-6 hours..
but remember...its the hardest when your young. but when you get a little older and a little wiser, doors open to you...make as many friends as you can, because in the end...even if all your cards suck and your ready to tap out of the ring..there the ones that will keep you standing and help bail you out when all reasonable hope is gone.
*clasps yoru paw tightly in mine*...you can do it....it gets better.
not saying it wont ever suck again, cause boy ill tell you when you get older you get a whole nother set of troubles...but it DOES get better.
and if you need someone to talk to about it..PM me, as i have alot of life experience to lend..and a ear that can listen

i just went and looked at your age...sorry if i was talkin like you were younger, i just assumed. but my offer for advice still stands
