Depending on your insurance you may not need it. I just made an appointment without bothering the GP. I almost never bother with the GP because all he does is refer me to someone else anyways. If I had to I'd just walk in and say, "I'm pretty sure I have Asperger's, could you refer me to someon...

I remember one time when I was pretty young a teacher chastised me for not paying attent...

Thank you all for the suggestions. I've decided to try and see a Psychologist if I can find one that's available and accepts my insurance.

Hi, I'm not sure where else to post this so this subforum seemed the most appropriate. I'm not sure if I have asperger's but I'm starting to think more and more that I do.
