The ways I have tried include putting out major ...…

Hi... In this 12th episode of the Aspiecast podcast, I mention some of the details surrounding me being sexually assaulted some years back, in my late 40s.

In this episode I mention how I'm rather down on being an Aspie because of the overall results that have accumulated over life.

A major wa ...…

1:07:08

THis episode may be one more that goes all over the map... In general however, I made it with a focus in mind on the "feedback" that I've gotten over 30 years of my adult lifetime via my interactions with others, both socially and at work. I think I got carried away a bit with differing topics here, one of which is due to the fact that I'm stil ...…

Perseveration is perhaps one of the biggest downsides to Aspergers.
