I'm a 25 year old woman who was diagnosed at age 15 with "Asperger tendencies" (so I sort of have a diagnosis, but I'm right on the periphery). I'm from (and they're in) Australia, but I've moved to the UK to do a PhD. My parents have always been overprotective and tried to restrict what I do, but i...
