Hi Sharon and welcome to the wrongplanet. I know it's easy to say "don't be nervous" about your evaluation, but just remember, if you have it---you have it, if you do not---you do not. And it's always been that way. When I was diagnosed with Asperger's, the guy told me, "nothing I can do will ever c... |

Hi Jwa and welcome to the wrongplanet. It's wonderful that you are wanting to learn about your friends and be better able to relate to them. I was diagnosed with Asperger's when I was an adult. Since it's very tough for most of us with autism to socialize well, it's great to have neurotypical people... |

Hi Tacobean and welcome to the wrongplanet. It sounds like you had an interesting childhood...and adulthood so far. This site is wonderful because you are able to relate to others that are more like you than the rest of the world. I was diagnosed with Asperger's as an adult and have found this site ... |

Hi dfgh and welcome to the wrongplanet. I too was diagnosed with Asperger's. Just keep upbeat and positive about college, and remember that afterwards you still have your life in front of you to live. When I was in college I used to channel my interests into research papers and assignments---that wa... |

I have Asperger's which was diagnosed when I was an adult. Would I want to get rid of it?---No. So if there was a "cure" I would not take the medicine. I am however beginning some "coaching" sessions so that I can be a better husband and father to my family. Now for my bold statement on autism. I do... |

Hi Alex and welcome to the wrongplanet. I hope this site proves helpful to you. I am also Asperger's diagnosed. I also find song/lyric meanings interesting. Have you ever looked into the old Donna Summer hit song from the late '70's called MacArthur's Park? It has some neat lyrics to interpret. Enjo... |

Hi MOA and welcome to the wrongplanet. It's great that you are doing this kind of research for your son. What you seem to be wanting here is support from adult aspies (based on our experiences) and help for your son as he has transgressed into adulthood. And I think you have found so far that all of... |

Yes Anonymous, I saw that one on television a few months ago. That was a strange story, one of those that you never forget. I expect doctors will have to remove the smaller fetus from the one year old. Very strange indeed. |

At first I thought this was a joke, but after reading about it, it does make sense. I do hope they are alright. I will keep this in my prayers. Keep us posted as to their health. |

That sounds like a great book to have. Since being diagnosed with Asperger's, I have tried to read a lot on this condition. Though I don't like to admit to getting depressed, I can admit here that I do get depressed on occasion---though not that often. But when I do, I really would like to have some... |

I was diagnosed with Asperger's not too long ago, and since that time I have done a lot of reading about it. A... |
