To Begin With
So I have dreams that I start out clothed in day to day activities and only through others telling me I realize I have become naked. I am never ashamed of the nudity per say... just that it makes others uncomfortable and for that I go back and try to find my clothes and get dressed only to find out later I am naked again and I have to go find my clothes and get dressed again. I think I figured it out... I have Aspergers. My world is very black and white, it is run by rules and laws and it makes sense. Last spring I was put on probation for following rules too closely at work and was put on suspension. I went to a counselor and found out I have Aspergers. I am black and white. In the past year I have come to grips with this, and it has opened a whole new world for me. My counselor I only have mild Aspergers but my sense of black and white is extreme. She said that Aspergers is a sense of autism, makes a lot of sense when it comes to how I struggled in school and in social areas of my life. I love people but the whole social part is off for me. I love purely and completely. I see the world differently, I realize things differently. My hope is that in this blog to share my thoughts with you and for you who have Aspergers realize that you aren't alone. For you who love those who love those with Aspergers this might help. I am not THE only perspective and my view is far from perfect but if I can help others along the way, then I have succeeded. From a friend, or family, or a complete stranger you are loved for being you.
