I'm currently listening to a recording of yesterday's seminar on disclosure in the workplace - It was not as informative as I had hoped as it became more of an "airing of the issues" rather than an actual how-to format. Out of the 12 people in attendance, four people spoke (including the woman giving the presentation and myself). I attempted to bring the others into the conversation but was unsuccessful. It ended up being a benign discussion that included the feeling that everyone was thinking that they had the roughest life situation to deal with...
My second meeting, on the other hand, was a mostly one-on-one discussion over Myers-Briggs, COPS Interest Inventory results - as well as Asperger's Syndrome.
Have you ever been in a discussion where the people are so certain about something that it is the central point of the conversation? Well, that is what yesterday was - and the central point was the fact that I have Asperger's.
I have, since this discussion, been trying to get a better grasp on what AS is and how the way I interact with people makes it so apparent to anyone who has studied this life situation. I am not close to understanding it... and yet, I see a lot of myself in the descriptions I've read...
But I keep coming back to the quote
