If you want to make a thread to ask, don't. Instead, go here: http://web.ics.purdue.edu/~ssanty/cgi-bin/eightball.cgi

This is because asking us is as useless as asking a magic eightball.. We do not know if you or anyone you know has aspergers. We are not professionals. Please do not ask us.

Relax, folks. They're asking in good faith, which is more can be said of some other perennial threads. :wink:

Who and Where are those 'professionals'? What did they study other than psychiatry?

The last doc to diagnose me said I have
a "mild form of autism".

Now that said, I notice how different
I am from everyone else, I CAN'T be
nero tipical, I Just Can't Be, I am not
convinced.

I can sort of understand why people would come here to ask if they might have Asperger's. I see nothing wrong with giving them our input, but whenever I answer a question like this, I always remind them that we're not professionals and that they should consult a psychiatrist.

I asked if I had AS and it said definitely. Thanks for the referral, and thank you, Magic Eight Ball, for the diagnosis.
