There’s a medical word for it – comorbidity. I dislike the word, so I’m not going to use it. Instead, I’m simply going to talk in terms of additional diagnosable conditions that run alongside Asperger’s. I’ve digested a lot of information about Asperger’s – from online resources, and from some books too. Something that stands [...]
I used to be terribly disorganised, and failed to get things done that I really had to do. My memory for tasks appears to be very transitory – no matter what I do to try and consciously remember things, the list slips quickly out of my mind, and I have no clue what I was [...]
You might have noticed a pattern to when I post new articles here. Generally they are mid week, and they are also mostly during the day, UK time. As it happens, this is no accident, but before I started writing, I had no idea it would work out this way. I have no shortage of [...]
Ok, so I wrote an article, and in it I said that I think I’ve got a talent. I’ve just spent the last hour or so worrying about that one word. Am I being boastful? Am I talking rubbish? Worry worry worry. I’ve just re-read what I wrote, and I’ve decided to leave it the [...]

It was World Autism Awareness Day last Thursday. I was very busy at work, and unfortunately didn’t find the time to comment on the day itself. I did read this article though, about Yoko Ono auctioning off a work of her art as jigsaw pieces in aid of Autism Speaks – an organisation that I [...]
Whenever I publish an article here, I get an immense feeling of satisfaction. Writing about my Asperger’s really does help me to make sense of just how it affects me. It’s often not until I write an article that the tangled spaghetti of my thoughts starts to become un-jumbled. Somehow the act of writing puts [...]
I’ve taken a look back at what I’ve written here over the last couple of months and I’m a little amazed at myself. There’s a lot of powerful and profoundly personal thoughts expressed, and some pieces of writing that I’m very proud of. My little retrospective through what I’ve written has left me wondering if [...]
