Hope you get some good help from this forum. I certainly did! It's kinda hard being diagnosed with any lifelong condition and at first it can seem a little scary, but this website helped me to cope with it! (I was only diagnosed this year)

thanks, yeah, before i was diagnosed i knew there was something different about me, i never could fit in & felt like i was the odd one. school was hell for me as it was not a
special school & for a person with AS as you can imagine, it was very very hard. i always thought it would be interesting to talk to other people with the condition which i've never really done.
