Well, I'm only diagnosed for ADHD-PI and a learning disability at the moment. I don't know, it's possible I may be an aspie but I've never had it officially checked out, and I've always kind of white-lied to my school therapist about stuff concerning my school life, if I ever talk about it at all. The truth is, I've always had trouble making/keeping friends in real life, although I've been able to make a couple close ones online and I've always kept to myself whenever I could help it. Got bullied for a majority of my school years and well, that's never really been fun. Also, my parents are the type that are rather skeptical to the existence of mental/developmental disorders (unless it's something overt like schizophrenia or a personality disorder) sadly, so it took a while for me to get myself tested merely for the other stuff. Still, I've been lurking on this forum for a while and it feels like I can really relate to some of the things posted on here. I actually had a different post I was going to make but it ended up being a lot longer than I expected, so I'm going to post it in the General Autism Discussion a bit later instead. At any rate, it's a pleasure to meet you guys
