    Hello - I suspect I might have aspergers but am nervous

    So - I've been lurking on here a while. Saw one GP (not my regular) who was awful - went for a second opinion and got an immediate referral - pre-diagnosis assessment in a couple of weeks. No idea what to expect but I've filled in a questionnaire (admittedly with corrections to the vague nature...

    Hello - I suspect I might have aspergers but am nervous

    I'm based in Lancashire - I've got a load of stuff written down to take to the GP initially - if I don't I know that I'll downplay everything and leave with little more than a pat on the head and a load of unresolved queries. I'll take things from there. I'm a bit old to take my parents to be...

    Newly diagnosed with Aspergers at 55 male

    Hi - I'm pretty new here too. Undiagnosed but have an appointment with the doctor next week to hopefully begin the process of getting some answers. I can recognise a couple of the things you mentioned. Primarily the pushing people away. I often try to explain to my wife how I feel or the way I...

    Although let's not pre-empt anything. GP appointment now booked!

    Hello - I suspect I might have aspergers but am nervous

    Thanks guys - it's a very warm place here, isn't it. Xudo, I think I'm just one of those people who likes to know the truth so to speak. My guts are telling me this is perhaps real. I'm not sure I'd even disclose my diagnosis to anyone else. It would probably be just for me to think about.

    Hello - I suspect I might have aspergers but am nervous

    Haha. Yeah - I thought it'd be funny. The kid thought it was hilarious, as kids do, but her dad looked aghast! I'm not after a label, rather understanding of why my life's had a bit of a tailspin. It means I can look to do things that aren't like being a round peg in a square hole, so to speak...

    Hello - I suspect I might have aspergers but am nervous

    Thanks for that WereBear, and thanks for the warm welcome in general. I feel that a diagnosis would probably help me ease off trying to fit in and just go with it completely. I'll see how things go.

    Hello - I suspect I might have aspergers but am nervous

    Ooops, sorry about that. I'm very new to this. May I ask how you found the diagnosis process. I'm calling the doctor today to arrange an appointment and can already feel myself getting sick to the stomach with having to make the call.

    What was the most irritating thing you got repeatedly told growing up?

    "It'll be good for you to go out and make some new friends" - well meaning, but not really for me.

    Please tell me what you think..Thanks so much.

    I'm new here also, and undiagnosed. Just wanted to say hi and that I too have a habit, mainly when I'm stressed, of replaying the first 30 seconds of a particular song over and over. Maybe it's not weird if more than one person does it!

    Hello - I suspect I might have aspergers but am nervous

    Hi - My name is Liam and I come here hoping for a little guidance and support. Maybe even advice. I'm booking an appointment with my GP for a referral for a diagnosis with the sneaking suspicion I have aspergers or am on the autistic spectrum in some way. Over the past few years the wheels have...
