Asperger's for the Neurotypical.
Thorsteinn:
Please share the below.
OK. I have been told by an unimpeachable source (A female quadruple Peer who is like family to me), that there are diagnosed "Sir Aspie's" out there. However I would like to say that I have been contacted first hand by Laurel's, Pelican's, and Royal's about their A.S. diagnosis, but not a single Knight has come forward. This is very suggestive to me that they feel a shame or stigma to being open about their disorder.
So for all the Sir Aspie's out there siting in the shadows, this is for you.
I support whatever choice you make, but know there is one here whom will stand by your side.
Sir Edward:
There's a strong stigma out there in general when it comes to various mental conditions. What's interesting is that a lot of it is self-imposed.
I think you know what I mean, but it can be liberating to acknowledge your condition and work with it.
Sir William:
For some, but not all. Not everyone is able to face their issues like that head-on...for some, that's even more traumatic.
I think that the ones who do not respond to you, Ivan, deserve their privacy without reprisal. Whether they feel shame, or fear the stigma, it is still their own private business.
Thorsteinn:
Week 7, Part 1 is up.
Thorsteinn:
Fan mail & questions would be easier to handle if I didn't care, but if I didn't care I wouldn't be doing the series. Work Work Work.
