Struggling with feelings of embarrassment and confusion, Jeanette Purkis navigated life as a misfit until her diagnosis of Asperger Syndrome at age 20 provided clarity. Her experiences in various groups, including prison, offered a sense of belonging despite her challenges in forming relationships. Through her journey, she learned to embrace her identity and cope with her differences, ultimately finding acceptance and understanding of herself. This narrative explores themes of identity, belonging, and the impact of societal labels on personal growth.
