I think I'm Aspergers, and my son has Autism. I spent a lot of my childhood wondering why so many people could communicate so easily. It was always a difficult task for me, and communication was mostly focused on me, my life, and what I was doing. I couldn't ever get how people could talk about abstract stuff, like Politics or the environment. But through my life, I'm 36 now, I've learned to cope, and study human psychology - I've watched a lot of people lol! - It didn't come easy to me, years of studying, pleasing people. Perhaps that could me my next post. :)

I'm pretty big in the Autistic circles - I've had a few viral posts on the Huff with writing about that.

I asked the doctor last year if I could get tested for it - but they said, "what good would a diagnosis do this late on in my life anyway" - sadly, I think it was a money issue rather than wanting to help me get some clarification.
