So I'm a 35+ guy, always aware of being different somehow, think I could have Asperger's or some Autism related condition. Though I just
started to think about this a couple of weeks ago and only found the vague definitions of these conditions within the last 72hrs. So I have a long way to go in finding out more.
I tried a couple of informal online tests and they point to yes, as well as an immediate recognition of common traits and symptoms from reading post here last night.
I have been this way as long as I can remember, so early childhood or sooner. :roll:

Keep studying or get tested bro.

I recently found out that I had AS and I wonder if I should have left it alone.
I understood what happened to most of my friendships now.
That being said it's been a paradigm shift that has been unpleasant to say the least.

There is no shame in dealing with it in your own way. If thats self imposed behavioral therapy or
taking medication prescribed by the doc they are both viable options.

If it's effecting your life in a extreme way or hurting others though you should get help with it.
