    I am 28 and unsure if I have autism or aspergers. I kind of think I have the symptoms and somehow slipped through the cracks in terms of being diagnosed when I was younger. I wanted to know if anyone here had it and would be willing to discuss in private message my symptoms...

    I wasn't diagnosed until I was 15. Not sure how or why, but I showed literally all the signs of it as a child.

    I was diagnosed with Asperger's as an adult. As a small child, I was diagnosed with ADD.

    Yo! Diagnosed an aspie when I was, uh, I think six or seven? I really don't like the idea of people self-diagnosing, though...

    Slate has an interesting article if you look up "you do not have aspergers"

    I suspect that I might have Aspergers. I show too many symptoms of it.
