Hi Ellandra,
My son is almost at the age where he can start to understand that his brain works differently and adjust his lifestyle accordingly. He already recognizes that he’s different but like I said, he isn’t at the stage in which he can work with his situation to obtain the same outcome at a different angle than a ‘normal’ person.
Have you read ‘Look Me in the Eye’? Its an autobiography of of a guy that had (undiagnosed) Aspergers. Amazing the similarities between him and my son.

Haven’t heard of that book before, I’ll add it to my reading list.
There’s one by Temple Grandin that was highly recommended, called “Unwritten Rules of Social Relationships”. I wish I could tell you firsthand how good it was, but dad borrowed my copy before I got the chance to read it, and I never saw it again. Hopefully that means he found it useful?
