RE: Aspergers, Logic and Metaphysics
Were you diagnosed with Asperger and if so by whom? I'm just interested in knowing more about this, I have heard people with this are liable to really excel in one specific area not necessarily mathematics . Would you say this is true?
Yes, diagnosed by a psychologist. And you're right, not necessarily maths. Aspies seem to have the capability to process huge amounts of info, systems and abstract ideas - although some become totally overwhelmed and just can't function. They see it differently, kinda like a 3D landscape. Couple this with an obsessive ability to focus, deeply focus and some can really excel in their field.
