| If your mom can't think of anything telling before 3 you may be labeled PDD-NOS, which isn't like some curse or anything. I'm being evaluated next week so I'm kind of feeling the same as you - I don't know if I seemed Aspie that young, like my first obsession I remember wasn't until I was 6 or 7 I t... |

| I don't always have an obsession - I have periods of transitions and in these transitory periods I often feel lost without an obsession. In fact before my ASD obsession, I wasn't interested in anything and it made me feel kind of empty even though I wasn't depressed. I think that our preocupations a... |

| They say I also have Generalized Anxiety Disorder. They weren't very formal about the diagnosis, just kinda said I have it. I think I could have OCPD, but haven't talked to a professional about it.
