I am 37. Diagnosed about a year ago, but I always knew I was different, even when I was about 7. Just figured it was the OCD, but the OCD didn't explain everything. Many years and lots of failed therapy later, I had CBT (cognative behavioral therapy) which brought the OCD under control. Then the AS ...
