Hello and welcome.

I'm a bit new here myself, although my account was made a while ago :tongue:

I am also in the middle of finding out if I have Aspergers as well. After years of being told I have anxiety/depression and medication doing next to nothing, my new doctor finally decided to take a fresh start with me after seeing I showed motor issues and seemed to have difficulty speaking/stuttering (which was always attributed to being nervous). I am also suspected of having ADHD and my new prescription of adderall so far has given me so much relief from my anxiety. If only I didn't have to wait 24 for someone to take notice perhaps I wouldn't be so far behind others in my age group. Best of luck to you on your journey!! !! !!

It sounds similar to myself. I was bullied most of the way through school. Suffered mental health issues for many years. Struggled with many things. Put them down to just being me. Recently diagnosed with dyslexia/dyscalculia and suggested i get tested for dyspraxia. Im clumsy, i spill,drop,break things often dont know my left from right and bad with directions. I have had to piece everything together myself and ive not really disovered myself till i took an interest in why i am the way iam. Glad ive become a member hope you get some answers

I'm new to this site and was diagnosed with Asperger's and intellectual disabilities as a child. I just thought I'd say hello to everyone. It feels good knowing I'm not the only non NT out there.
