Hi again guys Went to the T today, and what a revelation, never thought I would get the assessment I did. Right off the bat he asked me about my childhood and what my interests were like and what my reading habits were like, which at first I found a bit odd, and then I told him about how I had no friends at school and generally actually find it rather difficult talking to people face-to-face and then he came up with an answer quickly. He says I have Asperger syndrome (AS) which is like a type of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) (!!!). This possibility only ever crossed my mind once years ago when I wondered one day why I seem so much more quiet than other children. But, this explains my life pretty well, not interested by anything normal, abnormal social behaviour, lack of friends throughout school, and very peculiar, weird and narrow interests. He also said that this AS, when it carries through into adulthood like mine did, leads to MDD, because of how different you feel to everyone else, so that explains where my depression came from. I never expected this at all and I'm totally stunned. What on earth do I do now? I'm, per definition, abnormal as a human being. That also explains why I have no passion for anything, because it's so hard to make my mind interested in anything. And, I've also got to ask - 12 years of my life in school, day in and day out - and nobody ever noticed???
Thanks for this!
