On the 3rd of March, so really, really recently. :D
I did the ADOS test, the one with the story book with pictures - recognising emotions, telling a story with 5 objects, solving a jigsaw and general questions.

I was diagnosed as an adult. I believe that happened in 2009. My first dx was Aspergers. I think at some point it was PDDNOS and then switched back to Aspergers? There was some debate among the people at the university about what exactly I have going on. There is no information available in regards to how I was as a child, except what I could provide. My parents were not reliable sources for that. Annyway, I have no doubts I am spectrum-y.

I was diagnosed in my early thirties in the mid-1990s.

I was diagnosed with Aspergers about a year ago at age 32. I knew I was different by the time I was 7 or 8. When I was a child I was a decent actor, I could pseudo-function around NTs. When I was in my late teens the continual stress finally got to me and I stopped trying to "fit in". That's when others noticed I was "different".
