Hey Quantum, I understand that it might make you insecure about your identity. When I first heard that I might have Aspergers (now recently) I was afraid that it would be a sign of weakness and that my wife would use it against me. I was worried that when we had an argument, she'd always say that it...

I tend to lean towards a psychologist, but probably it's very much dependent on your own circumstances and preferences.

Hi all, Just thought I'd introduce myself. I don't think I have been "formally diagnosed", but a few years ago a psychiatrist told me that I have some OCD tendencies and an anxiety disorder and put me on anti-anxiety meds (Zoloft), but then I changed countries after only seeing him 2 times...
