Some helpful links, part I: Autism

I’ve been clearing out my bookmarks lately, which I hadn’t done in about seven years, so there’s a lot to go through, and a lot of the things I put there are “this would be useful to recommend to people someday” things, which go on the bookmarks list and turn invisible and I never do. So to remedy that, here is a new blog series.

Some of these links embedded all nicely, and some didn’t, and I’m not going to go through and make them consistent right now (far too much else going on), and if I find more links on this subject when I go through other folders I may come back and add them to this post.

I have tried to arrange these in a logical progression, but considering that on Sunday I told a friend “my entire wet half is sopping!” when I meant my entire lower half (I had just come inside from getting caught in a downpour), and on Monday that “I saw a specialist who agreed that there’s definitely something going on, but we don’t know whether there’s anything going on” (meaning “we don’t know what is going on”), perhaps you should take that with a grain of salt. . .

And finally, a link to a run-of-the-mill questionnaire of the kind they give you at an autism screening: https://www.aspietests.org/userdetails.php?target=/aq/questions.php.

If by this time next month I have not disappeared, never to be seen again, under heaps of government-issued paperwork with associated fees, look out for another links post on whatever subject I’ve dug through by then!

About Nolie Alcarturiel

I enjoy practically anything to do with medieval history, including the domestic arts, with an especial emphasis on the Anglo-Saxon era. In my spare time I read endlessly, do medieval living-history, hold philosophical debates at the drop of a hat, and write books on even slighter provocation.
