Comments: I am a recently diagnosed aspie who had a very traumatic childhood and adult life. My therapist said my autism has probably helped me to get through it due to my ability to retreat within myself. My aspie gifts are singing, being able to memorize any song and every beat and instrument part, and a natural ability to draw anything. I am very much a little kid and yes, I love to flap. My brother has Noonan's syndrome which may or may not be linked to my family genes and autism. One of my daughters is aspie too.
