Along with my ASD....apparently Developmental Disorder NOS according to my therapist and psychiatrist though I also have a diagnoses of aspergers from a neuropsychologist. Anyways aside from the autism I have anxiety, depression and as far as I can tell PTSD but can't seem to get a formal diagnoses of that even though therapists and some psychatrists(in the psych ward) defiantly thought it fit and I exibit a significant amount of symptoms such as avoiding situations that remind me of the trauma and lots more but I won't list it all here.

I also have some paranoid thoughts occouring from a traumatic situation and I've both not dx, eventhough I was told several times that I've a trauma. It's not that important what you write on a pice of paper, but to treat the patient and to recognise the problems.

Maybe but I guess I like having the official dx so I know what conditions I have and thus can have an easier time having them treated.
