Nobody had a clue what I had until 9, nearly 10 years ago.

I was diagnosed with HFA at the ages of 5 and again at 16. I wonder what my diagnoses would be, today?

I think it goes to show that there could be perhaps the majority of the population on the Autistic Spectrum somewhere and PDD is a relatively new one which is on the boundry of the better end of the spectrum...they keep coming up with something new all the time.
