I told my supervisor I have Aspergers Syndrome because he asked if there was anything else he needed to know and I was nervous because he said he needed to talk to me And I told him. I don't think he was familiar with it but he told me later in the day he was glad I shared that info. I told him I had trouble with eye contact and a bit of trouble with jokes. I didn't get to tell him a few take away points ( It is NOT a learning disability, it's an explanation and it's just a difference) so I don't know if I need to explain it better or just leave it unless he asks. I'm a bit nervous because first I did sort of disclose and second I did have a bad experience. Thanks.

Thank you. So far he hasn't asked anything else about it so I figured if he brought it up I could explain it better. Thanks for the hugs.

Yes, past experiences can leave an anxious or negative feeling
