I strongly suggest Rudy Simone's book : 22 Things A Woman with Asperger's Wants her Partner to Know I'm going to check to see where I can get that. Thank you! Oh, I laughed when I read that! I wish!

I started to get real self confidence because I could see how good at life I actually was for someone that hadn't been playing with a full deck (so to speak). Thank you! That portion of your reply really spoke to me. It would be so nic...

Hey all. I'm new around here! I've got a bit on my mind... and this seems like a really good place to sort it out. If I ramble, I'm sorry. Forgive me. I was speaking with a dear friend, who is a counselor and very studied in psychopathology. She suggested I get tested for Asperger’s. I am struggling...
