Hi, Barbara. Thanks for an amazing post. My case is not as severe and yet I can relate to a lot of what you wrote. Scripts, jail cell, acting, faking--the inevitable moment when you have to improvise. The sentiment of wishing your wheel chair was visible. The notion that yes, everyone experiences these things but for us it is worse (on the inside). The cage, the intellectual ghetto. You have captured very well the way it feels. I hope a lot of people seeking to understand Aspergers better will find your post and get a better sense of it. Steve
