Well I'm now working with kids who have learning difficulties and many are on the spectrum so I've had to swot up on it. I think, as it's a spectrum, we're all on there somewhere but the more I learn about autism and the traits and behaviours that are explained by it, the more reason I see for what I was like growing up and the struggle I still have to fit in with society. I don't think I'm severely autistic but it would explain a lot to me if I was diagnosed, to the point where I'd actually be disappointed to be told I wasn't!

edit - this is an answer to a question that's since disappeared
