Hello.

I previously dismissed Asperger/Autism due to the whole "lack of empathy" label. I have too much empathy it frequently overwhelms me. I recently did online tests for Aspergers which all suggested I have it, I also tested as having ADHD. It was a relief because now I feel my struggles to date make sense. I intend to seek diagnosis.
