For years I didn't want to have Aspergers. Though, like the above poster said, it made a lot of sense that I did. I have always been asocial and felt F****** WEIRD about it. And thought I was flawed just b/c I didn't want to be around people much. But now I know. I admit I did want to either confirm or rule out a diagnosis so I went to Kaiser. A Psychiatrist there said "Autism Spectrum Disorder Level One." Used to be called Aspergers. It is STILL hard to accept but the more I start to accept it the better I feel......to be cont.

Dear lark265,

It can be a relief to finally get a correct diagnosis even when at times it is not welcome news. Something like that happened to me although it is still too painful for me to discuss. I will be interested in reading whatever you post about your life. People unafflicted with mental health burdens have no idea how much courage and heroism it takes to bear them. I think you are very noble.

Sincerely yours, Yao Wen
