Diagnosed two or three years ago, at about 31-32. But I was pretty sure I had it from the time I saw a documentary called 'Today's Man' on PBS when I was almost 26.

I was diagnosed at 4, however despite attending a special school part of the week I didn't quite "grasp" that I had it until I was about 10 or so.
