This woman is telling the story of my life!
Hi Roseanne, I am a 42 year old woman with recent Aspergers diagnosis. I really enjoyed this video. I hope you find a job soon that lets you play to your strengths.
This is a wonderful testimonial. I have been recently diagnosed as well and I would like to say that there are excellent employment opportunities, such as printed translation, instant translation during events (pays wonderfully in Mexico), writing material for teaching purposes... even research. Big hugs.
this is me, i feel like everything i love or am good at requires social skills in order to fully prosper or find employment in and i dont have that
this is what happened to me...I suspected, then GP said it and I'm 60. My parents just thought and said I was a problem...and kicked me out at 15. Then It really got bad.
How about translating written material? Say, technical translations. Manuals, for example.
Thank you Roseanne, you have helped me more than I can tell you. I hope you have the job you deserve. I can't help thinking you should start your own business, you would be so successful; you have a special skills set. I wish you could find a way for you to benefit from them. Your levels or competancy and technical abilities are vast. Wishing you the very best. 🤗
Thanks for this video, indeed, "quirky" was the term I used before my son was diagnosed...
This is a great resource. Thank you for uploading.
very interesting interview
