Summary

From the early stages of childhood development a child learns from adults about boundaries and self-expression. When a child is bullied in all ways as well as sexually, their view of the world becomes distorted and boundaries become blurred.

As a child with Asperger's syndrome related to autism and only four years old, those boundaries were cast aside, and my mental health suffered and depression set in.

School life became a nightmare as well because being on the spectrum, I had to contend with the abuse and feeling isolated. This lead to extreme bullying as I was different in ways beyond autism.

Thus later on in life my view of relationships, women, sex, and people was forever altered. Developmentally I was at least 10 years younger than my peers. My parents however tried their best to educate me with the limited resources around at the time.

It set the scene for my mental well-being in later life where I had multiple relationships, cybersex, and experiences with promiscuous women on and off the internet.

My diagnosis of Asperger's condition in 2004 meant at least I now knew what I was and why I was that square peg trying to fit in an NT hole.

In this book I talk candidly about my first sexual experiences at the hands of older females at a time where it was hard enough growing up with Asperger's and dyspraxia. It caused me to have sexual issues, and I kept choosing the wrong types of females who were either controlling or enjoyed manipulating, belittling me.

Today I am happily married and aged 51. It has taken years to realize I don't have to be used or be treated like rubbish to get love and respect from a woman.

I moved through school life with the typical trials and tribulations to do with my autism or Asperger's condition.

In this book you can expect tips on:

  • Sensory, eye contact, developing social skills
  • How to understand and support your child at school and at home
  • Mental health and autism
  • That first sexual experience
  • Stimming issues
  • Meltdown

Broke my heart as a Mother of a Man with Autism

On listening to this book it immediately catapulted me back to when I hadn't a clue what to do with my Son. It was a hard road in the 70s and words were harsh. Looks like Stephen liken to my Son had a fair degree of bullying and that saddens me.

Abuse was hard to hear, but hear it you must as many Autistics including my Son go through it. People can present a kind face to those who they fear and an evil face to those who they can bully.

Nice to hear he is happily married and finally has found an ideal partner to share his life with. My Son on the other hand is still looking for someone as understanding, but he is 18 still spends a lot of time on his computer, but this book gives me hope for the future.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
