True, it's sad to see that it's so prominent, expected it though :-[. I forgot to put that NO ILLNESS option but I did as soon I realised it.

Then that is what I may belong to.
Also, I have always had trouble learning stuff through theory, I am better at learning through practice.

Borderline Personality Disorder... Really fun one. Has symptoms of anxiety and clinical depression, but they aren't a cause so I don't think they count for this survey.

Also was once diagnosed with Asperger long ago, but that is looking like it was in fact a misdiagnosis. I don't think I fit the symptoms, my psychologist thinks it doesn't fit.

I kinda take offense to that, I mean..

I think Neonivek was referring to people who self diagnose, rather than yourself Ultimuh. It is just by chance your post was before his making it look like it could have been a reply.

You must be going through a lot, I salute you and wish you well good sir.

No need to be offended by that friend, I think he probably is referring to that recent report by DSM that removed Aspergers as a seperate illness but put it under Autism.

Sorry, I should state it

What I mean by "The real kind" is that I am separating it from the popularized "Nerd disease" version that is just a "extreme normal personality".

I am absolutely certain, without sarcasm or backhanded statements, that everyone in here who has said they have Asperger's actually has it.

Yeah its location was... kind of unfortunate.

Finding out I have all these disorders (specifically allergies, Asthma [though I may have the kind that goes away], ADHD possibility, and Anxiety possibility) is starting to make me feel like a ball of problems.

--> Major clinical depression. Attempted suicide twice. Now mostly better, don't have many depressive episodes anymore. They're far less than they used to be, but don't occur anymore.
--> Misdiagnosed with Asperger's syndrome, after retaking the test thingy, I merely have a coupla points on the Autism Spectrum. That is, like... where you need to be 5/10 to be considered Aspergers, and normal person is 1/10, i'm 2/10. Something like that.
