Hi my name is Ashley and I'm eighteen. I live in Vancouver, BC in a group home. I was recently diagnosed with NVLD, and ADHD(Combined Type); and am currently waiting for my Aspergers testing as I scored unusually high on all assesments they gave me, and questionaires they gave my mother. After assesing my behavior, and social patterns for about a month on an outpatient basis, they said it was pretty clear I suffered from Aspergers syndrome, or another Autism Spectrum Disorder. I am currently on the wait list for Able Clinic in Vancouver to get my diagnosis. No one had ever brought up the idea of Autism though alot of the behaviors I pressented when I was younger coincided with ASD (Toe Walking, Arm Flapping, Complex Hand Movements, Echolia). I came to this forum to meet other people who suffer from similar disorders, and make friends (as I have about two, who I only see at school.)

Thanks for reading and feel free to ask any questions.

Welcome to WP and I am sorry to hear you have multiple diagnosis, it's hard with just one Syndrome but you have three.
