Hey all, I'm new to this site and I guess as well as the knowledge of asperger's. I was diagnosed with asperger's when I was 10 and found out over Christmas (hell of a Christmas) from my parents about my condition. I'm still confused a lot by it, mostly of the fact that I thought I was normal for most of my life. I knew I had ADD and used to take adderall for it pre college and I remember a lot of speech therapy and other doctor visits when I was younger but I never put anything together. I always thought I had some bad habits I never knew why or even questioned them. The one thing that has bothered me the most was I never in a relationship with anyone. I have friends but I have a hard time trusting them and when it came to girls I could never get close to them and never be more than a friend.

Hopefully here I can learn more and deal with these issues and be better aware of my self.
