I was 26 years old, almost 27, in and out of failed stints at three different junior/community colleges. Mom had suspected me of some type of autism for a while, but I didn't really take her seriously until a counselor also said that she thought I had Asperger's. In December 2009 I finally got diagn...

*waves* I've lurked here for ages, been registered for months, but just haven't gotten around to posting until now. Decided I'd rectify the situation. :) I'm 26 years old (27 in a few days!), and only a couple of months ago was finally diagnosed with Asperger's. My mother was convinced for some time...
