My old psychiatrist when I mention Aspergers said "you couldn't have that that's something diagnosed in children and there's no pill for that and this is a place that gives pills." I was stunned. Well my current one I mention I think I have it due to.... He responded perhaps you do and preceded to put me on yet ANOTHER pill. :-( Today I needed a note from him (so I can return to College) and he said so you're being treated for a mood disorder and Aspergers right? I said yes. I feel good OMG he WAS listening to me ramble and actually wrote down and took the diagnosis. :-) (I thought he had just written it off as here's some crazy girl thinking she has this disorder called Aspergers.) So I feel kind of good. BTW the note is what the school wanted and I expect to hand it in tomorrow and schedule courses by the end of the week. :-)

Oh Awesome Zelda! Make sure you use whatever help they can give you to succeed in school! What are the pills, if you don't mind me asking? It could be something to help you focus.
