That other stuff you mentioned is indicative of Asperger's/Autism/NVLD.

You're right. You should get assessed by an professional.


Is NVLD still in question as to if it's a form of autism or not, or do current takes place it on the spectrum for sure?

I think it's still in question.


After posting above I did some more internet searching.

I was surprised to find this-
http://www.landmark.edu/ld-and-adhd-res ... -disorder/

Notice what they say near the top of the page.
"Currently, the ASD category includes Autism, Asperger Syndrome, Nonverbal Learning Disability, and Pervasive Developmental Disorder Not Otherwise Specified (PDD-NOS)."


This surprised me. It's the first time I've seen it clearly stated that NVLD is on the spectrum. The page can't be more than a year old, because there's a reference on the page (further down) that's dated 2014.

Should I start a new thread about this, so's not to hijack this one?

Huh, I know NVLD isn't in any of the dsm's but I guess it is regarded as a ASD, at least somewhere/someone. Yeah start a new thread.
