Hi all,

I've been lurking around for a while (and may probably continue to do so, I was never really that active in any forum, but I do post occasionally), but I enjoy reading through this forum, so I've decided to introduce myself.

I'm in my early 20s and suspect that I am at least on the spectrum. I went to see my GP and received a letter from a hospital nearby for a psychological assessment, but I haven't set a date yet.

Oops, I just got distracted by dirt on my desk and had a five minute cleaning frenzy. :oops:

Anyways, a diagnosis would explain a lot.
I just want some closure on this. If I really am not on the spectrum, then I guess I am just very weird. :)

Yadda, yadda, yadda.

Thanks. It's the acronym for General Practitioner. It's what we refer to as the doctor in the UK.
