I'm studying japanese and eventually I want to practice the language more actively and maybe even go to Japan for a few months. However, as with everything else in life, trying to do things the NT way and pretending I'm like them just makes me sad and stressed. So, the best thing would be to meet japanese chat friends who are clearly aspie or have strong tendencies.
I have noticed myself that Japan, Israel and India seem to have more aspies than most countries. In Europe, the flemish area of Belgium seems to have a disproportionally high number of aspies and ADHD people in relation to the low population. Japanese, jewish and indian people are generally more "aspie" than others so in those cultures a lot of the highest functioning aspies are actually considered "normal" and many are even part of society. I have heard others confirm this many times even though no real proof for this theory exists.
Anyone have any ideas on how to find out more about aspies in Japan? I suppose this thread could be used for any links or anything concerning AS in Japan.
