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've seriously turned invisible

If there's one thing the holidays do, it is to remind me that I'm invisible and no one is missing me. That feeling has been reinforced twice now.
First, my chiropractor couldn't hear me, then his assistant couldn't see me and today, my therapist forgot me. So, three strikes and I'm out.
I can't blame others as the invisibility syndrome has happened more than thrice. Yeah, I get it. I don't matter cause I'm not really here and I have zero impact.
I'm nobody, nothing, just completely alone for zero reason.
I get it, ok.
I can't go back to those places because I'm invisible.
There's such a thing as being alone and then being completely inconsequential. I get it. Message received. Can't go back. Just alone. I get it.
It's like I write people and don't hear from them for days and that's it, ya know. I'm not waiting to hear from them anymore and I'm not looking for their replies after x number of days have gone by.
Forget I'm done. Stick a fork in it.
Don't know why I'm here but it's not to be trampled on.
Just ignore me. Move on. I'm invisible. Message received
