As in the title, I'm Canadian. Recently diagnosed with Borderline Asperger's. I also have NLD (non-verbal learning disorder) and ADHD.

Some of my interests are robotics and piloting airplanes.

Welcome to Wrong Planet!

Please forgive my ignorance, but what is Borderline Asperger's? How is that different?

Borderline is the same as regular Asperger's but not as severe.

Or, you have the symptoms but there not bad enough to have Asperger's.

People will make fun of your spelling. It's Asperger's, without the "b".

I actually looked at the logo on the top of the page. My spelling is part of my NLD. Until recently I thought (another word I've had trouble learning [thaught]) it was asburgers.

The only reason I found this is because of a thread on another forum.

Most people spell it "assenburgers" but that is just so wrong. *smile*
