Hi everyone. I'm new to the boards. I'm an NT but my long-term boyfriend recently got "diagnosed" with sub-clinical Aspergers Syndrome. The psychiatrist said his wasn't bad enough to warrant an official Aspergers diagnosis, but that he's definitely got a "touch of Aspergers." He's also been diagnosed with GAD and OCD, and I'm not sure how much of those are related to having Aspergers. He's on Remeron for his anxiety because it's bad enough that he acts kind of obsessive and neurotic when he's not on it. He's been a lot better since starting the medication, though! Anyway, that's a little bit about me. It's nice to meet you all
