The options on here do not have 'neurodiverse-otherwise fit in' or something in there. I was thinking as there's more than autistic people here can't you add that in there as an option?

I like that idea because it could draw in more people to join in the long run.

I've often thought this. I don't know if I'm an Aspie, but I doubt I'm 'neurotypical' - I might be mentally ill or neurologically abnormal.

It is "the online resource community for Autism and Asperger's."

But I like the idea.

I think that would go under "other autism spectrum disorder".

I agree and have pointed this out before. The only formal diagnosis I have is 'Tourette syndrome with obsessive compulsive behaviour' but I have other (what I call) 'neurological dodginess' which includes traits of Asperger syndrome amongst other mild things. Therefore puting 'NT' in my profile is inaccurate, but is more accurate than choosing 'other autistic spectrum disorder'.
