I was obsessed with it initially when I realised I may well have it myself, and read all I could about it.
I am not quite so obsessed now, but it will always be an interest I think, and I have started reading more about it again, since finally obtaining an official diagnosis. I think in my case, part of the obsession is with reading of the experiences of others on the spectrum, that match my own, thus helping me to reframe how I have viewed certain aspects of my makeup.
