Do You
Understand Me?
Sofie Koborg Brøsen
Jessica Kingsley Publishers London and Philadelphia
I have a disability. It’s called autism or Asperger Syndrome. You can’t see it. It’s something I’m born with that I can’t help. It means that I find it difficult to understand other people, because they do not think like I do.
I would like to help other people. Sometimes I need help myself. I want other people to understand my life, so that they can understand me.
