Childhood Autism has been around long before the 1990s...it is diagnosis of Asperger's Syndrome that wasn't official until 1994.

2001. So, the information really didn't even become known 'til the late '90s, early new millenium- NOW do you see why I'm happy I was diagnosed when I was, and not before then?! !! !! !! !! !!


And NOW do you see why I'm only really beginning to understand the true spectrum of it on my life, at this time?

Sorry, I thought he was talking about AS. I guess I wasn't thinking.

2007.

Took a hell lot of time and patience to find someone who knew that AS/autism with verbal speech exists!

November 11th 2003.

I can remember that day very well, because I remember after the doctor's appointment I spent the day crying - not because I was sad, but because I finally realised what was wrong with me.
