Default Does anyone suffer with Aspergers?

Hi Everyone

Sorry for all of my posts and things. Just wondered if anyone here suffers with Aspergers. If so how did you find out and what are your symptoms.

Just was wondering as I was talking to a Psychiatrist and Aspergers was mentioned, but need to have some tests done or something.

Sorry for all of my questions and posts.

Thanks in advance.

I went to a therapist a few years ago who said I was borderline aspergers, I have all the problems with social interaction, not understanding body language, social ques, tone of voice etc.

Have you properly been diagnosed. Sorry if I appear rude don't mean to be. If so what test did you have to do.

They just asked my Mum and Dad questions about what I was like as a child, I wasn't even there, then I got a letter through the post say I was borderline aspergers.

I had something similar happen to me but that was 4 years ago and I still haven't had the assessment, if you're unlucky in the postcode lottery like me then there are literally zero services for adults with AS. On balance I do think I have it to some extent but I don't see it as a really bad thing, I felt so much better when I was first told because it meant things weren't my fault.
