Hi guys, I am new too, I'm 23 and still live at home with my folks and our dogs.
I have been to the doctors with suspected aspergers (i have a lot of aspie tendencies, my aspie quiz score was 177 out of 200 for aspie and 22 out of 200 for neurotypical) so i am waiting for my referral to the mental health team and i dont know what happens after that in terms of diagnosis...
If anybody would like to chat or has any advise for me that would be fab :D

Great site guys, cant wait to get to know you all :cheers:

As of May 2013, with the introduction of the DSM-V, you would likely be diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (the Aspergers' diagnosis was phased out).

In the meantime, take advantage of all the resources on here and elsewhere.
