Diagnosis

I mentioned that my mother and I were going with my 23 year old probably Aspie brother for a diagnostic assessment.

Well, it happened today. We were there for about two hours, and not that far into that two hours, she let us know that she thought ALL of us had Asperger's Syndrome.

Wow.

I knew Mum and I both had definite traits, but I really didn't think I was "Aspie enough" for diagnosis.

My brother's pretty calm about it, but I think happy.

Mum's quite excited. I think for her, it's a moment of "connecting the dots".

For me, it's like coming home. I've been searching for why I was different all my life. Now I know why.
