It depends how much you want to have that diagnosis Flyn. If you want to go ahead I think you will need to approach them. Is there anyone else you trust that can be there when you talk about it? Perhaps they can start the discussion for you.

I actually printed out aspergers symptoms and asked my mom if she saw anything in there that relates to me... it did, every symptom just about.

Wow, that's actually a really good idea that I hadn't thought of before. Print out the symptoms and don't tell them what they're symptoms OF until they read them all and decide that they apply to you.
