Hi.

I'm not an Aspie...supposedly. But I am a Bordie, I.E. I have Borderline Personality Disorder, but I need a community and I can't find any boards that have to do with BP, so I was hoping you guys might take me in.

Boyfriend is AS, and I'm pretty sure I have some Aspie traits, namely the things we have in common, I can certainly become obessed with things (one of them actually being Aspergers). I got a rather high score on the infamous aspie quiz, okay, but my therapist nearly laughed at me when I brought it up, so there you have it. I'll take my current diagnosis and leave it at that. Athough, I really resent being called NT, my brain/neurology is far from typical. :-D

I think I have a lot to say about stuff. Hopefully this will work out.

Mighty pleased to meet you, fellow traveler ethos, and welcome to the Wrong Planet community. I am an aspie who is fortunate to have a good therapist; but from what some of our fellow citizens on WP have experienced with their therapists, I sometimes think that in some cases, aspie quizzes are more reliable. Here's wishing you and your boyfriend all the WP best in everything. Take great care of yourself now, and keep writing those posts, too.
