Beschreibung

This book is an honest and frank view of Lynn's life, as a woman with Asperger's Syndrome who was misdiagnosed, marginalised and traumatised. She struggled to understand the challenges in her life and sought refuge from the medical profession and the church.Time and again Lynn tried to reclaim her health and find peace, only to be badly treated and for her trauma to increase.Relationships were difficult, ordinary life was difficult, so Lynn turned to educating herself on a quest to understand herself.Through relationships with professionals Lynn got her diagnosis and the support she so dearly needed. Gradually life improved and now, at 69, Lynn is ready to share in the hope for more understanding for those that are different.
