Hello I have left a few posts before but I haven't really been as involved as I would like to be in the forums. A few things about me: I love music and I play the drums, I also am very interested in psychotropic medications and really like to talk about medications. I also like to talk about the DSM-IV TR and mental health diagnosis and treatment and also my personal experiences throughout my life.

Welcome greetings, sneschalmers, to the WP community. I checked "Asperger's."

Sadly there is no multiple option. But for me it's AS and ADHD.

I checked Asperger's, but I'm also diagnosed as schizotypical and bipolar.

I was diagnosed with AS in 1996. However, the diagnosis is slated to be phased out when the DSM-V is released.

As for being more active, feel free to post about your interests.

And by the way, I like your screen name. That was a good Simpsons episode.
