My blog: http://growingupaspie.blogspot.com/
I've just begun it, there's lots more to follow. I start with one of my first vivid memories - going to Church to meet God. (When Mom said Church was "God's house", I took it absolutely literally.) I'm going to write about growing up Aspie, and there were a lot of complicating factors. Firstly, Dr. Asperger's work had not been re-discovered while I was in school so no diagnosis could be made. Second, I suffered quite brutal maternal child abuse, both physical and emotional. That will be detailed on the blog. Third, I suffered severe bullying and ostracism by my "peers". It could be a painful read for many, with or without Asperger's. The few entries I have in now are about when I was almost four, went to Church to meet God, was bemused/confused by what I found which conflicted with my mother's statements, and trying to get to sleep that night beset by trying to make sense of what I had learned earlier and being terrified by visual hallucinations in the dark brought on by night terrors.
I'm really glad I found this place. I actually thought I was on the wrong planet and some mistake had been made while I was growing up. I actually would stomp "UFO's LAND HERE" in the snow around my house with arrows pointing to where they should land, exactly. I wanted to hitch a ride home. (Decades later, the Calvin & Hobbes comic would show something similar and I would collapse laughing.)
I would appreciate any feedback or input to my blog.
I'm amazed when I read things like "I cannot stand other people chewing." I thought it was just me!
