I have a theory that people with aspergers/high functioning autism are prone to going grey - follicly speaking - sooner than the average person. I have and I know a couple of other people like me who also have gone grey earlier than you'd typically expect.
Perhaps it's stress-related, or dealing with the constant anxiety. It's an admittedly small sample size! Any thoughts?
It's a really interesting theory.
I started slowly going grey in my early 20s and I'm 37 now and have for quite a few years now had a salt-and-pepper effect going on, although my hair is still mostly brown.
I've also had a grey mallen streak since my late 20s.
You seem to be very similar to me, although I'm 40 so have a few years on you.
