Ever since I was a toddler, I have developed a new obsession almost every year. Does is this common with Asperger’s or does there have to be one that persists throughout ones life?

Asperger’s Obsession

It's rather common with Aspergers
Yes. There may be an exciting obsession that grows old and then another will take it's place.
I've had a few that have followed me through life.
Mainly my interests in psychology and parapsychology.
My aspie friend can be high on an obsession one week then something totally different the next.
He has had a few that lasted through his life though too.

All depends on the person. Some interests stay for weeks, others months or years and then there's some of us whose stay for a lifetime.
