TBH we don't know, that's why i'm asking.
He's getting increasing frustrated and withdrawn as since he finished school in May, hes lost two jobs due to his difficulty working with other people and walked out of another because he didn't like being asked to do different tasks that he wasn't expecting.

I guess we're looking for success stories of any kind.
If people we're diagnosed as adults what prompted them to go get a diagnosis?
Was the result a positive thing? if so, how? and if not why not?

I hope i'm not coming across as rude, ignorant or offensive, but we're just trying to get more informed and asking questions to real people is sometimes the best way to do it.
