Living with Asperger Syndrome at University

Hello, I'm an italian 20 year-old Physics student and I have been recently diagnosed of Asperger Syndrome. Thus, I have seen my life backwards in time and finally comprehended the issues encountered in all my academic career.

Unfortunately, this difficulty does not allow me an orthodox study and professors don't seem to understand my "too original" way of thinking. I've a repulsive attitude towards any kind of book, inducing me distraction and loss of interest. While on the other hand, a text formatted in the same way as Wikipedia, enhances my learning and satiates my necessity of knowledge.

Could you give any possible solution to overcome this damned annoying problem?

Thanks! Innocent
