Well I went for my diagnosis last week, and - yay - got a formal diagnosis of Aspergers.
Was fairly confident i would as I've scored pretty highly on all the online tests I've done, but it was so great to hear her say those words, can't stop grinning! :D

Hey, congrats on your diagnosis :D
I saw you are from the UK and I wanted to ask you, how can we get a diagnosis from the NHS? What is the procedure?
