| I am amazed how people are dismissive of ASDs. Perhaps if we showed them the dramatic pictures of brain scans, showing underactivit in key regions, it would give them a credible visual. |

Sounds like Asperger meltdown...
as far as the sleep, YES, that happens to me all the time, after an effort (sensory overload, social stimulus, driving)-- I go crash zzzzz.

| Very young? Well, I was in some form of school from 1971-1989. It could have been a lot worse because I had great parents, but of course at school there were issues and it wasn't easy. How awful some people who post here had it! |

| I graduated on time from a top, exacting school, with a crummy gpa, with issues I had no clue stemmed from a neurology not then known. I am trying to finish a masters now at 45+, with a 3.6 gpa until last term, though midway through the degree learned that I am aspie. |
