Hi, Im from México, Im new (obviously), 23 years, a graphic designer, I play guitar (still sucks at it) and Im training ninjutsu (yeah, some day I will be a kick-ass ninja :D ), and, well, I want to make this introduction a bit short because right now is 2:50 AM and I really want to go to bed :P

(tomorrow I will continue with this answering all the questions you may goy. Oh, and my english is quite bad, sorry about that :oops: )

Everything start when I saw a short description of Asperger in that episode of House M.D. (witch I asume many of you already know that one), so I started to search more info about this, because at some point describes a lot of some behaviors that I have or had at some point of my life, especialy when I was a child, the most recongizable was about eye contact, so I am one of those I-dont-know-if-I-have-it-but-internet-was-very-convincing-so-Im-gonna-check-it-out kind of guy.

When I was a child everybody get mad with me because I never look at them to the eyes, because it was kinda annoying or I didnt see the point to do it (I worked out that aspect very well and now I can make eye contact like the 70% or 80% of the time XD ).

I sucks on social skills (making friends or not have the interest to make a friend at some point, not knowing what the heck is going on in some funny, sad or unconfortable situation, girls :( ). The sarcasm and irony I will noted it as average, but after view the 5 seasons of House M.D. I enjoy make them more than ever :P , but Im much better make them than undestanding them. Im good (I think) making jokes, OCD behaviors quite low but there are a few, empathy lets say low to average.

The rest of the history tomorrow (if you are interested) , right now I need some sleep :|

Oh, and some information of where I can look for a diagnosis in Mexico for adults would be great.

Good night... and thake care San Dieg... I mean, WP forum :P

I think Mexico should provide some amount of health services. Ask for mental health services there.

Hi, I am from the US, so I cant help much on Mexican doctors, but I do get what your going through. I am 32 and a young woman. No need to be afraid of me I dont judge. Im not sure if I really understand the medical stuff, but I have a hard time making friends. I do watch House, but have not seen all of it. I just got it on DvD. Oh, Witch is a creepy woman with a green nose. I believe the word you want is Which. Any way I get confused on those words to, and I grew up speeking english.
