My name is Bas, I'm new here.

I've also introduced myself in the Dutch section of the forums, in Dutch off-course

Around the age of 10, I've been diagnosed with ADHD, I've been treated in a psychotherapy facility till the age of 14, with medication: Ritaline (Methylfinidaat). Last year around august, just before my 30th birthday, I've decided to find help, because of recurring problems in my work and social-emotional life. I've always suspected that ADHD isn't the only label that applies to me, just before I've signed up for a re-diagnosis and therapy, I've self-diagnosed Asperger Syndrome, by looking objectively to my own behaviour. December last year I've been re-diagnosed Asperger Syndrome by the psychotherapy facility, with (between parenthesis) ADHD, but as we all know, Aspergers can be hyper as well

If you have any questions regarding me, don't hesitate to ask.
