That means you're probably between 13-15 years of age; am I right?

I was diagnosed around 1964, at around the age of 3. Could have been 1965, at the age of 4.

1998, when I was 8, I think. Yes, too young for a FEMALE with MILD ASD.

2012, age 18. Senior year of highschool when I really started to lag behind my classmates in functioning that I could no longer chalk up to shyness to myself.

I was assessed for autism in 2004 - at the time the doctor told my mum "girls can't have autism".
After years of struggling with social ineptitude and symptoms of depression, I was finally referred to centre for children with disabilities, I was told I might have autism in 2013. I was 15,

It took until 2014 to get an actual diagnosis - I was 16 years old when I was diagnosed.
