Quote:
There is therefore a considerable population of adults with AS who were not diagnosed as children, who as adults experienced enough distress to seek therapy, and who continued to be misdiagnosed. Often highly anxious, underemployed, unable to make and sustain the friendships and romantic attachments they long for, they have been seen as treatment resistant, personality disordered, or depressed. Misdiagnosis has resulted in treatment that missed. When these patients show up in our consulting rooms now, says Gaus, discouragement and depression are often layered over the original problems of AS.
