A-S warrior Report post Posted January 3, 2013 My mum printed off marc segar's book, called The survival guide for an aspergers sufferer (or something like that) He diddn't put it into production, he just had it online instead. sadly he died back in 97, he was only in his 20's. But i got a lot from it, at my young age. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
robert7111a Report post Posted January 3, 2013 (edited) I have Marc Segar's book too. I also have a fantastic book written by somebody on this forum. A few of the stories etc really hit a raw nerve and brought a tear to my eye. You know who you are :smile: x Edited January 3, 2013 by robert7111a Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lyndalou Report post Posted January 3, 2013 'The Complete Guide to Asperger's Syndrome' Tony Attwood 'Aspergirls' Rudy Simone '22 Things a Woman with Asperger's wants her Partner to Know' Rudy Simone and a few more but these are the main ones. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Echo Report post Posted March 24, 2013 Received these through the post yesterday; 'Aspergirls' and '22 Things a Woman with Asperger's wants her Partner to Know' Rudy Simone. It took roughly 2 hrs to read 22 things...and it was brilliant. Like a how to manual on me (although I thought that about 10-15% of it described other people - just goes to prove that we aren't all the same). Now I'm about half way through 'Aspergirls' - I almost cried. So many, if not all the stories/descriptions ring true. I just thought that I was a little different and that other people's opinions of me didn't count as I did not follow their social code/mindset nor did they know or try to understand me (of course, I couldn't explain to them either - now I think I can - "Here you go...read this book"). I thought that what all that I did/said (do/say) etc... was/is wrong - but I couldn't change that (a failed individual). Now I know that these are all traits that I share with a very exclusive group of people who are extraordinary in their own ways. Next step is utilizing the tips and information that I have in a constructive way - helping me to help myself, helping my family to understand what's going on etc... Awesome.
