ShinyRedBall, do you feel you match up enough with the parts of the 299.80 Asperger criteria? But with a sig line like that; you'd have to have at least some of it. :lol: I looked at it and none of it really describes me except the not returning gestures(body gestures) thing sometimes, but that's o...

I say once you start stacking a bunch of lables on top of each other it doesn't really matter what it's classified as. People are people, not psychiatric conditions. Such labels were created by people, not God.

It's not just reading social situations, it's not being able to reciprocate (either totally or appropriately) that determines AS vs ADHD, Isn't it?

Just wanted to comment on the OCD part-- are you diagnosed OCD because that description you had of not being able to let things go (the guy that was behind you) is very similar to what I do... I can't 'resolve' things in my head in anyway that makes me stop thinking about them. If a crisis arises I...

I would rarely ever think about things that interested me unless they caught my attention somehow. Like walking by them and not...

Why not try doing some research? From what I know, one of the biggest things that splits them down the ...
