When I was diagnosed I was instantly relabeled from quirky and very intelligent and creative, to unable to function, low IQ, poor understanding.

Yes, it annoys the heck out of me. And it also ate a chunk of my self worth.

In this day and age, they still don't understand Asperger's and intellectual disability are two very different things with DIFFERENT issues.
