Hi, anyone want to compete for oldest asperger diagnosis? I was only 41, so I'm a young-un. The oldest I know personally is late 50s and there is at least one well-known professional 60+. If this is offense, I apologize. I just know that Hans Asperger noted and classified the "syndrome" in the 40s, which would make his patients in their 80s if they are still alive.

I am over 80 (81 next month). I am scared to tell it.

I was diagnosed with AS as a teenager in 1995, so my diagnosis is probably older than most on here even though I'm not old myself.

Welcome to Wrong Planet!

I was diagnosed with AS when I was 13, so you can cross me off of the list.
