I really related to what you wrote here. Although my parents never had me tested as a child, I've suspected that I had Asperger's pretty much since I knew what it was. I went to see a psychologist about it recently who basically told me I have a lot of the traits but that he didn't want to label me,...

Well I have gotten back from the interview yesterday. I was basically told that I do have many of the Asperger's traits, but he was hesitant to actually put the label on me because I had basically learned, more or less, to deal with them and live a reasonably functional life. Which I did understand ...

Less than half an hour before I leave for my pre-assessment interview and I'm super nervous. I hate dealing with nerves, especially when they don't seem to really serve much point. I talked to my bf in depth about things last night to try and get all my thoughts in order and then wrote a bunch of st...

I used to be very thin skinned but then I had an epiphany during my first year of college. Basically, it didn't matter what other people thought. It seemed to simple, so beautiful and I embraced it entirely. There are, of course, those few people who's opinions actually do matter, but for everyone e...

I am biologically female but identify as gender neutral. Gender is pretty much meaningless in my life. I don't do any of the typically feminine things, including makeup and shopping. I am far from the typical emotional female, many of my hobbies are more traditionally male hobbies. I don't really se...

I have met people through facebook before. In fact, I met my current bf through facebook. We had mutual friends and started talking because of a status of one of our mutual friends. We decided to meet in person a short while later, one thing pretty much led to another and now we live together. He ha...

Thanks for the comment about your experiences :) Hmm, although I've taken many of the tests I never thought to print them out. Mainly I've just been going over everything in my head again and again, trying to remember different traits and life events that made me suspect. Maybe it would be a good id...

Thanks for the welcome :)

I just got officially booked for my first pre-assessment interview tomorrow morning. Hopefully all goes well although I am fairly nervous about it. Do I have any reason to be?

Hello all. I'm new here (obviously) and I'll try to keep my introduction relatively brief. I'm 25 years old and have had a consistent history of social difficulties. I always found it difficult to make and keep friends, didn't understand many non-explicitly stated jokes and had troubles with body la...
