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...

I have the strangest therapy sessions

Being a Multiple and in therapy for years, you'd think I'd get used to these unusual sessions. But, I swear, it is so weird. I'll be talking and then all the words just stop, abruptly. I mean, there may be thoughts in my head or feelings and physical sensations that I experience but, it's like a heavy curtain comes raining down and I'm left completely speechless.
My hands move, my eyes are usually teary, and I think parts of me are communicating with therapist, just in a completely non-verbal way.
In a way, I have half sessions. I'm there and aware half the time and the other half, I've got zero control and zero conscious.
Life with Multiple Personality Disorder is a highly odd experience, for sure.
