== Quotes ==
Cooijmans summarizes Asperger's definition of what was later called Asperger's syndrome: "It is a narrowing of one's relation to the world outside. It is a disturbance of instinct; an impairment of the ability to relate to or interact with the world in the direct, concrete, instinctive manner inborn to the majority of humans. [In Aspergians] Information is processed in the abstract and logical ways of the intellect, rather than instinctively and concretely. Communication is intellect-driven, rather than through the direct instinctive channels that bypass intellect. Many more symptoms result from or accompany the disturbance”.

'Distinguishing narcissism from Asperger's syndrome can be complex. Is this an either/or diagnosis? Can there be elements of both? ... Paradoxically, people with both diagnoses can be very empathic and generous. The bottom line is that these are not all-or-nothing syndromes, and they can easily co-exist. Very complex.' --- Susan Heitler Ph.D."Denver clinical psychologist Susan Heitler, Ph.D., a graduate of Harvard with a doctorate from NYU, has authored multiple self-help books, plus books for therapists on treatment techniques. Starting in her book for therapists called From Conflict to Resolution, Dr. Heitler explains how to handle life's bumps—the conflicts, difficult interactions, negative feelings, traumas, and tough decisions—in ways that sustain a sense of well-being." https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/resolution-not-conflict/201511/narcissism-or-aspergers-how-would-you-diagnose-these-casesRhizomata
