I just came across this blog, which describes the experiences of a twenty-six year old woman who probably has Asperger’s Syndrome – as she says in the info, she doesn’t yet have a diagnosis, but her experience fits. There’s only one post up at the moment, but it looks like it will be interesting and informative. It also reminded me of the recent research that suggests Asperger’s is far more prevalent in females than originally thought, but the disorder manifests differently in females, and since the diagnostic criteria were based on male manifestations of the disorder, many females go undiagnosed. See this post for more information.

Fascinating blog. Thanks, Monkey.
I thought the post on “too normal” was really important and informative.
