I'm a 21-year-old guy in college at George Washington University. I was diagnosed with Asperger's when I was 16, but I'd always known there was something off about me. I ended up going to Franklin Academy in Connecticut my last two years of high school, and was elected class president my senior year. I learned about this site at a New Jersey ASPEN conference I went to last month. I'm hoping to find some friends, some advice, and some comfort in knowing that I'm not alone.

When in doubt, ask an autistic. Chances are, they're obsessed with what you need to know. :roll:

Autism Speaks will NEVER speak for me

CLASSIC AUTISM

I hope so. Living with Asperger's has been a big challenge.
