My spouse is the Other I selected in the poll.

I've been diagnosed with Adult ADD, but stopped taking Adderal several years ago for two reasons - It reduced my creativity, and since I was driving for MN/DOT (Snowplow) I always flunked the drug test, and had to prove I was really on Meth via prescription.

Since it only made it easier for NTs to communicate with me when I was medicated, I had no reason to continue the drugs. It's cheaper too.

I'm old enough not to care about going through further testing to get a formal AS diagnosis, but taking the tests available on the internet, I test high aspergers, low NT. That's all I need to know.

You younger folks may want certification, but I'm already certifiable. :lol: :lol: :lol:

The poll's a bit useless if I can only choose one option. My family, teachers, and friends all know.

My parents, most of my family, my teachers, and a few friends know. Then of course doctors and such.

My parents, my teachers and my close friends.

I do not have siblings. My classmates don't know I have autism, however, they are away that I get help from an "aid" in school. And yes, my doctors know.
