Hi

Let me tell you guys a little about myself,
I have some social anxiety and mild depression
I graduated from a pretty good university with a BS in Psychology and I'm now currently interviewing medical schools to become a doctor.
I'm not sure if I have Aspergers or not, but I do have some traits. Though I have pretty good social skills (learned), I have some problems socially. I hardly ever know what to say in one-on-one situations (I'm decent in groups because I can feed of other people), while I'm not horrible with small talk, I'm not great at it either. I have a lot problems expressing myself and putting things into words.
I am a little clumsy, but despite that I played sports most of my life, and am a natural athlete, I probably could have played basketball in college for a lower division team.
I definitely don't have a narrow interests.. I might be into something for a little bit, and get bored and move on to another things
I like a lone time, but I also love hanging out with my friends and family.

Like I said, I don't know if I have Asperger's or not, I'm going to a psychologist/neuropsychologist next week and I'm going to talk to him about it.

Did you look at the list of women's Asperger's traits, in the women's forum? Apparently ours can be different from men's.
