| Ganondox - your school sounds good and sounds as though you enjoy it, which is the main thing. Do you find it difficult being around peers who are "wealthier"? The local group I'm in at the moment is very wealthy. To give an example my neighbours house is on the market for 3.5 million pounds and it'... |

| ToughDiamond - I like the analogy with money. Robdemanc - "I didn't realise I was popular until it was over" me and you both mate. I have been very lucky to have been popular all the way through school, college and uni. My first taste of being unpopular, talked about and bullied was during my Master... |

| No I don't think going private is your only option. Can you let me know your area or if you know it the name of your PCT, I can find out what there is for you. |

A fellow geek, although a lot less so then I used to be when I was young. J- congratulations on being clean for 3 yrs :D I don't drink, do drugs or smoke. The o... |

| Hi J I'm in London too! Okay so to give you more specific advice I would have to know which PCT you are in, which is usually the same as your borough (I think). The most popular diagnostic tool in the NHS is the DISCO method, which is not a questionnaire type. Also if you want to access some NHS ser... |

| Sorry to hear about your situation, it can be so frustrating working with mental health professionals. I'm in the UK and the system is very tiresome. I hope you are able to meet some friends soon. Life can be really lonely otherwise. I'm thinking of going to an Aspie meeting in North London, but I d... |
