How to Talk to Your Aspie

By Amanda J. Harrington

The world is filled with myriad aggravating events impacting on the aspie psyche, leaving us reeling as if in pain. On top of this, we are expected to communicate too? I think communicating with other people is like trying to talk in the middle of a thunder storm or while being chased by wild, hungry animals: the other person doesn't see the storm or the pursuit; they see you, staring, face fixed in confused thought. They wonder why you don't speak, they ask if anything is wrong. And then they leave. The storm abates, the animals vanish, the aspie is alone and quiet, annoyed at their inability to communicate but at the same time relieved the danger is over. They relax: maybe next time they will work out this talking business. Although this book is, 'How to Talk to Your Aspie', much of it is written from the aspie viewpoint. Family, friends, best beloveds, have a look at the world from an aspie point of view and see how creative, frightening, annoying and enlightening it can be.
