I am not sure if this has already been done, but I got the idea to add this poll after seeing the How bad is your aspergers thread
I rate myself as high function autism because my speech was so delayed.
Non-verbal up until the age of 4
I am also not a savant, and I kind of envy those savants

After finally talking to a therapist who has a lot of experience with AS, I suspect that I'm on the spectrum of AS, but just barely.

I defy any real attempts at categorization.

My diagnoses should have been PDD-NOS.

Not sure. Think is, I'm diagnosed Asperger's. But then I was slightly delayed in speech but that could be due to my dsypraxia. I'm not really up on all of the syptoms of dysparxia. I should really read up.

Your mum should be your last friend after a failing streak, your last defender after losing the battle, the one person you can trust after everyone else betrays you, the one person who cares most about you after you've alienated the whole world to your cause.

It is very sad when a person can't trust their mum. It would be much easier to bear if it is you who are wrong, because you can somewhat control that. I feel sad for you.
