Jorg's Journey with Asperger Syndrome

Jorg says he spent a long time smuggling himself through life. He rubbed people up the wrong way and offended those around him - including his own wife. It was only late in life that he was diagnosed with Asperger syndrome. But what many see as an illness, Jorg sees primarily as a gift. The diagnosis is a relief not only for him, but also for his wife, and the first step toward a more understanding relationship.

In his guidebook, Jorg describes his own unique journey as someone with Asperger's, what is typical for people with this autism spectrum disorder, and where difficulties in everyday life can arise. But he also describes the amazing abilities these people have and how they can find help and support.
