Prepare to enter the wild and wooly world of an adult with Aspergers Syndrome, a form of autism characterized by intellignce, quirks, social difficulties and downright strange and oddish behaviours.

People with Aspergers generally are high functioning in everyday life but have great difficulty connecting with others due to the inability to read faces, body language and subtle verbal clues. They also tend to take words literally and have a hard time multi-tasking.

Oversensitivity to touch (clothing has to be soft and often the tags removed), light (do not leave home without the sunglasses), sound (loud noises and noisey places are avoided), taste (many Aspies have quite a limited diet and are frequently very picky eaters) and smells makes the everyday existence more of a challenge.

Fasten your seatbelts and come on in...

More Anne Frank Quotes from The Diary of a Young Girl, part 2

"When I looked outside right into the depth of Nature and God, then I was happy, really happy."


* I only wanted to sleep to stop myself thinking.
 
- Oh, it is so difficult, always battling with one's heart and reason; in its own time, each will speak, but do I know for certain that I have chosen the right time?

"We shan't get anywhere by following an ostrich policy."

* Let the end come, even if it is hard, then at least we shall know whether we are finally going to win through or go under.

- We all live, but we don't know the why or the whereford.

"We all live with the object of being happy; our lives are all different and yet the same."

* People who have a religion should be glad, for not everyone has the gift of believing in heavenly things.
