I've been wondering for a while now about me having Asperger's Syndrome. I have seen quite a lot of articles and people talking about struggling with language and communication impairments, but I don't EXACTLY have any of those. I'm coping quite well with my English, and I am quite a sociable person in or out of the computer. I thought I had it, because my tutor, probably the only person I feel that has actual, proper knowledge about the condition despite not having it, believed and explained to me that I had it. I have very out-of-the-social-norm kind of behaviour anyway, but do all AS people have problems with social communication?

It's impossible to have AS and not have social communication problems.

That's what I thought too, but I feel I'm doing okay, though I have people tell me I am really hated in class.

Your teacher is an idiot. Telling you that you have mental health problem without any evidence at all. And it looks like he's wrong about it, too. It's highly unprofessional.
