I'm also going to be going to a local behavioral center soon - initial appointment in a couple of weeks - and I am very hopeful. Sure, I may appear to be a mild case, but when I'm in a bad way inside my head, I seem to lose coping mechanisms and learned skills - I am almost totally nonfunctional in most situations right now. I hate that they call me 'highly functional' when I feel like (usually) 'highly adaptive' would be so much more accurate.
Anyway, sorry to sidetrack your thread - I hope you get the help and answers you're seeking!

Thanks! I know exactly what you mean here, I also feel like I'm 'highly adaptive'. My initial appointment went really well, by the way, and they said that they do have an Aspergers specialist there. The lady that I met with said that she can see why I'm leaning towards AS, so that was nice to hear, coming from a professional (finally!). Good luck at your appointment
