Slightly. I was diagnosed as being on the spectrum in college. [I Am Autistic]
It's something that my parents long suspected about me and even I began to think it might explain some aspects of my behavior that went beyond simply "quirks". I was told that I have "mild Aspberger's" and it seems to account for some of my difficulties with social interaction, my obsessive and compulsive behavior, and the more difficult aspects of my personality. When I found it out, I didn't feel negatively or positively about it. I probably would've been fine going through life without knowing, but there is something satisfying about being able to put a name to something that has always seemed "off" about you. It isn't something I take medication for or seek therapy for. It's provided clarity toward understanding myself is all. It's not an excuse, but knowing this may help others understand me a bit better too.
