I believe I have Aspergers. I have done quite a bit of research on it due to the fact that I know a few aspies. From what I have read, many of the things i saw seemed like me.I'd rather not go into great details here, though. My mom once brought it up to me a couple years ago that I might have it. At the time, I didn't know what she was talking about and I had my mind on other things. I didn't even know what Asperger's was. Recently I brought it up to her again and she wouldn't even discuss it. On top of that, I had mentioned it to a guidance counselor at school (who I don't think really knows me that well as I don't see her often) and she quickly dismissed it as soon as I uttered the word. I'm still speculative though in spite of what she said. I just know what I have read sounds like me and what others have said (always talking about the same certain cartoons 'all the time', taking things like sarcasm seriously, need for routine, etc.)
I'm just confused on how I should bring it up to someone who can help though.
