Re: Do you let your disability get in the way of your life? -

Everyone has disabilities of some sort. Mental or physical. Even if it's ordinary depression.
No, I don't let mine get in the way. In fact, I exploit mine and find them useful. They give me a bit of an "edge" over other people. There aren't many people who can tell me that I'm not doing well. I find that it's adversity that drives me. If everything was easy, I wouldn't bother doing anything, and wouldn't achieve anything.
Asperger's, assuming I have it, by whatever means, genetic or nurture.
"I don't care about politics"
Then politics doesn't care about you either. Truth. You've got to make your voice heard, if you want to be listened to. But that's too logical for some people, so let me go a step further. Not making your voice heard, leaves other people free to hijack it by speaking on your behalf, even if they don't actually give a shit about you. That's politics. So, make your voice heard. That's not a quote from anywhere. That's just me.
