the two can co-exist.

also depression, anxiety, and ocd are common symptoms/disorders that can come from being on the spectrum.
I had these symptoms before being put on any medication whatsoever. I did paxil for a month, which didn't work, and then started on the meds in my signature. I am really bothered by the fact that my psychiatrist says I'm on the spectrum (which I agree with) but don't have bipolar disorder, when there are so many things that aren't answered by the first diagnosis.
