Hello. :)

My psychiatrist thinks I very likely have Asperger's but I haven't been diagnosed officially. She thinks my symptoms are unmistakable, but I have mixed feelings about it. I wonder if a lot of what she suspects is Asperger's is actually just my personality or another illness such as social anxiety.

On top of possible Asperger's, I was diagnosed with OCD not long ago. I also have GAD and major depression. I also deal with a terrible feeling of depersonalization. Like...I'm always analyzing my behavior, and I feel like I have no personality. I feel like everything is my anxiety and depression etc. and I can't distinguish between what's that and what's just my personality and quirks. Anyone else dealing with this?

Anyway, glad to be here!
