  When I was 3 I was diagnosed with Aspergers', 
and my parents didn't tell me about it until I 
was in 7th grade. Before that I always knew I 
was a bit different from others; I went through 
the teasing which gave me severe depression. 
Interacting with others can be difficult still
(I get tense, and figity easily in social 
situations). Despite the burden that AS can 
bring, I have successfuly graduated, have good 
freinds, & will be attending college soon. It 
is my mother whom I must thank; without her 
support & endless patiense, my life could be a 
realy messed up.

Hello Kevin,

It's been a while since we connected. I  love 
your site :-)

Just a note here for one of your guests:

"I was diagnosed at 35 years and was so relieved 
to find out that there are others in the 
world "like me". My son and I were diagnosed 
together".

For you and your guests: WE are in Canada and if 
you'd like to chat with some of us adults and 
who are parents, please feel free to join 
http://groups.msn.com/AutismInformationEducation

Our next online discussion group is tomorrow, 
saturday at noon our time, about 8pm English 
time.

Regards,
Leonora

I'm signing because I'm 99% sure I have AS. I 
have a four year old son daignosed with Autism
(kanner type) I apreciate you web site because 
it informs people of how a person could be 
autistic even though they seem normal enough to 
the naked eye. Also to back up a point you made 
if you want a correct diagnoses you should find 
a psycologist who has studied autism related 
stuff. Otherwise you could get any number of 
mis diagnoses. I have been miss diagnosed with 
ADHD & I'm now 99% sure that isn't my problem.

I've been looking at a lot of sites on AS 
recently, as I believe I might have it myself. 
I've already been diagnosed with dyspraxia but 
this doesn't explain all my problems.
Thanks for a very interesting and informative 
site - I was particularly interested to read 
about your school days as I had some similar 
experiences when I was in school.

I read your site and found it informative. I 
have a seven year old son who is autistic. I 
myself have manic depression,though I think now 
I may have AS. I think this because I have been 
thinking about my childhood years and how I 
still respond to life situations. Please, 
contact me with an answer to this question: Can 
I go to my psychiatrist for a diagnoses or do I 
need to seek a neurologist?

Thank you

Thanks for sharing your experiences online with
this website.  My ex-wife "diagnosed" me with
AS, but I don't see myself in your experiences.

As young as you are, you may eventually be cured
of AS.  Medical science is ready to make great
leaps forward soon.

Thanks,
