| I chose ages 11-13 as I had just moved to a secondary school, leaving behind my best friends. My new friends weren't really friends and teased me and stuff which was crap. I was a loner at lunch and just walked around the playground. I love school this year (upper sixth) because now people know what... |

| I'm really good at maths and I teach myself A Level. Got 90%, 92%, 97% and 98% so far in the modules. Two more left. I'm sort of good at English. I also do it at A Level but I have a problem with essays where I just write everything down with no structure. I don't know whether I have Asperger's or n... |

| Both my (not speaking to each other) parents see me as a 15 year old who sits in his room rather than go out. They think I am failing school because I am lazy and keep handing me newspaper articles about people being addicted to computers. Completely ignoring the massives of computer programming I ... |

I know in the UK you get officially diagnosed by talking to your GP, he'll then reference you to specialists etc. As for telling your parents, I guess it depends on your relationship with them.. I don't argue with them much and I get on qui... |
