Type of therapy: I'm not a psychiatrist, but i wanted to thank you for your courage in writing this, and commend you on your wish to learn new skills and to live like other people do. Psychotherapy that focuses on educating "aspies" about how other people think, feel, and behave equips them for life in a world that's challenging for everyone. Look out rather than in, forward rather than back, & seek love wisely.

Aspergers: Please consult a good psychiatrist. Sometimes Abilify (aripiprazole) or resperdal can make a big difference in breaking up "freight train brain" and obsessive thinking. Try that route! here is my take on aspergers. http://youtu.be/xg1ngp1ngds.
