Hi

My name is Peter, I am 17 years old and I'm from Denmark. Discovered Asperger's Syndrome on the Internet and felt like it sounded like me. After some information searching, I'm now pretty sure that I have it; not sure if I want a diagnosis though.

Just wanted to say hi.

Hi Peter
I too live in Denmark (Århus). If you get an official diagnosis of Asperger's Syndrome, you might like to check out this company that only hires people with Asperger's Syndrome Boas Specialister

Hi Peter, welcome to Wrongplanet!

I strongly recommend that you get diagnosed, so it can help explain who you are.

Also once diagnosed, you're entitled access to certain services.

I know that in Denmark, there is a company called SPECIALISTERNE that only hires people with ASDs, which is awesome!
