Hi! My name is Adia and I am brand new here. I found this place doing research for a research project I am working on about Nonverbal Learning Disorder, and Aspergers. (still unsure how to spell that as I have seen it multiple ways and my computer underlines it sometimes but not others). Eenywhoo, I was diagnosed with NLD and AS this Summer when my mother decided she was sick of me being forced to do something I could not do (math). I still have to do it :P Anyways, I'm kind of nervous because I tend not to be a bright as some of the Aspies and other NLDs, so be nice please :) I look forward to talking to you.

Hi there!
The commonly accepted spelling is Asperger's, but you often see variations.

Hi, Don't put yourself down, you have talents too and number what are they anyway? I am am very bad with numbers I tend to mix them up. Long live the calculator. But formula's you can learn by heart. And then the calculator does the hard work.
