I have a son who has Aspergers & I believe my 21 year old daughter has it also. She has not been diagnosed yet. It hasn't been too much of a problem while she was young. however, it has been nothing short of a nightmare the last 3 years. My main concern for her is: staying employed & obtaining & maintaining health insurance, her safety & if she should become pregnant. The people she hangs out with have a lot of serious issues. She needs a peer that could be a mentor to her as well as a role model. But that AIN'T going to happen because the average kid her age does not want to be around her for long. This is why I am trying so hard to get help that is effective for my son before it is too late. I am still in the process of getting help for her, it is very daunting & exhausting!! I wish the very best to you, don't be discouraged. You are still young and the future may hold much promise.

Now that diagnosis has been changed to Asperger's. Some of my son's AS characteristics are similar to yours. The one quirk that I'm having a hard time controlling is his rudeness. Hopefully, through time and therapy I can get it under control. Thanks for this website.

I have a friend who does have it, and reading your site gave welcome insight to his challenges. Best wishes to you.

I don't know who that is, but it sure is nice to see that I am not alone in this town :o) Your site is very nice, I was self-diagnosed at 24, but not officially diagnosed until I was 26, and I had some of the same problems that you did, I also have the problem of people not believing me...if I had a nickle for every time I heard "well you are just a little odd, not autistic" ...LOL...have a great day, keep up the wonderful work.

Have bookmarked your site as a favorite and will put a link to it on my site as well. Great job on getting the word out! :) Name: Nickala Marthe E-mail: nickimarthe@aol.com City: Lawton Country: United States Homepage: Date: 22-Oct-2001 01:21:11 Message: I enjoyed reading your website very much. My son Adam, was diagnosed with Aspergers this past spring at the age of 13. Myself and his teachers had thought that he was unusually shy and would outgrow it. I only wish that we would have known sooner. Adam is extremely bright and is in his first year of junior high, the first term has just ended and he had made all A's. He has told his teachers that he doesn't want special treatment(feels that would be cheating). He doesn't want to even discuss Asperger's. I will try to encourage him to visit your website.
