When were you given your diagnosis and under what kind of circumstances? I was diagnosed when I was nine years old, though it apparently was building since I was 4.

@Rollerskatesandpocketblades: Well, that's not meant to really be the point of the post, it's meant to be finding out about how and when others got diagnosed. I'm curious to know.

@MuddyWelliesLover96: and I'm curious about symptoms that's why it's asked
@Rollerskatesandpocketblades: Hard to say really. It's the physical clumsiness, obsessive interests, literal mindedness, inability to properly read facial expressions and lack of desire to socialise that can be among the Aspie traits. I feel very strange much of the time and scarcely want to talk with people, preferring to do things alone. And I can get very stressed if a routine changes or something like that.

@MuddyWelliesLover96: I'm exactly the same. But it's not aspergers. I'm just....very slow. It makes me cry. Everyone makes fun of how slow I am. I even take too much time to memorize things or process factual sequels in my head of something I'm studying and then retain it. :/
@Rollerskatesandpocketblades: I wouldn't call myself slow - I apply myself in areas of great interest to me and can retain lots of information. But I feel self-concious that all my info is useless.
