Did Jonathan Edwards Have Asperger’s?
In 2012, aged 43, I discovered I have Asperger’s Syndrome. It explained why I have always felt different from other people, could be counted on to say something inappropriate, lived in a constant state of anxiety/hypervigilance beneath a veneer of impenetrable calm, would obsess about a subject until I knew absolutely everything there was to know about it, struggled to concentrate on subjects which did not interest me, was too uncoordinated and overwhelmed for any sport except running or swimming, and eventually dropped out of high school. It brings with it many difficulties but also some excellent gifts. There is now a link in the top menu to articles and videos related to Asperger’s Syndrome, focussing mostly on adults, which I have found helpful or interesting.
