Hi butterflyeffect

I was only diagnosed with Aspergers, plus other associated conditions myself last year, then my older son was diagnosed - its really been an revelation to both of us, giving us the understanding to be confidence to believe and be who we truly are... :wink:

Hidee-Ho, Neighborette. I wasn't diagnosed until 48; actually feel a good deal less 'funny' now that I know. You may find that many things in your life that have confused and frustrated you for years will make sense when viewed through the Aspie kaleidescope.

Hello, and welcome to WrongPlanet. :) Many people on the forum were not diagnosed until they were older, so you aren't alone. I hope you have a good and helpful time here, and best of luck to you and your daughter.
