Your response was very thoughtful, @Soupe du jour. I became very knowledgeable about Autism and Asperger Syndrome while my daughter was undergoing evaluation for it. (She was diagnosed with mild autism eventually.) And I wonder if I would have been diagnosed with it too if DSM IV and awareness were present when I was a boy. I found the OASIS support group almost as helpful for myself as for her. And some of the parents there said they felt they were either ADHD or on the spectrum themselves.
