I saw the name of this thread, and it's PERFECT!
I am suspecting Asperger's/Autism. I keep gathering evidence toward it. I decided to call a random relative about it, one of my uncle's today... his responce was long, but I first said I suspected I had a certain problem, and I named off the Autism/Asperger's list... he said something to the effect like "Of couse that's why people think something is wrong with you..."
Then I mentioned Autism. He basically said! Of course that's the name for it! I saw a lot about it on tv, but so what? I've read up a lot about that. Everyone in this family does to some degree or another, some of us have been called crazy for it! I have it a bit too, just remember, you're like Einstein and you are not crazy! Just remember, they might think you are crazy, but you are not! I know... I can't get along with normal people either...
So, at least one relative knew about it, didn't tell me cause he was pretty sure I already knew about it cause he knew I was smart enough to figure it out, is that like a first
Edit: Best part, I told my uncle I think part of the problem was I work at a place where someone said they had a "360 degree burn" He seemed confused... I started saying umm.. you know, like a circle but confusing it with a type a burn. He said... I know, umm... was he trying to make a joke? I said "No, I think he was serious" Uncles starts laughing, then hangs up the phone... either uncle truly is Autistic also... or he's making fun of me
