self dx-ed

i realize that things are expected of me... but suck at doing the correct thing... so i'd rather do my own thing, i guess......... watch or space out. i say what i have to say when it pertains.

Not according to the Psychiatrist who examined me (if I was) she said that I am on the spectrum, but to high to be Aspergers. So maybe I'm not a member of the club after all. :( For now I'm going with AS anyway. :)
