Hi

My name is Brogan, and I was diagnosed with Asperger's syndrome at a very young age. Talking/Communication is one of my areas that I struggle in. In specific social situations it is frustrating at times. Have been through and tried many different methods and tequniques to help this. Nothing has worked so far. Hoping to find the answer soon.

Hello there Bthorsteinson! I am new here too but I noticed no one had said hello yet. I am just learning about this all but I hope you and I both will be able to find some methods or techniques to help us communicate with others!

Welcome to Wrongplanet! :D

Communication is one of the core deficits of having autism. I know I struggle with socializing and communicating!

Hi BThor,

I used to like listening to the words "Red Deer" whenever the weather forecast for Calgary was given.

There's a certain harmony to the sound of the Alberta cities. Especially Medicine Hat. I've always found Medicine Hat soothing.

Edmonton is a bit jolting, though LOL

How do you feel about Fort McMurray?
