Fresquinn & Lifeshould, there is nothing inferior about having Asperger's. Fresquinn, it frequently co-occurs with other conditions.

Paediatricians frequently miss cases and it is due to people going on an exploration in later life that many adult cases are revealed. Growth has a lot to do with this and growth should happen at all ages and not stop when one is 18.

I have suggested specific reading for a purpose, because I think it is most likely to help in that exploration.

The "prevalent" accounts of the syndrome are stereotyped and superficial.
