I am a sixteen-year old Aspie girl. I find myself drawn to Autism, mental disorders and their popular perception, causes, and characteristics by other factors, (age, sex, etc). I am interested in determining the many manifestations of core symptoms and myths vs reality.
There is a problem, and yet another. One, I am almost certainly biased. Two, of all the scientific careers I could endeavor on, Autism is right underneath my nose, as though I need to be personally involved in something to be intellectually interested in it.
Blech.
