Hospital appointments

So a few years ago I made appointments about my aspergers and how I was doing at school with a hospital.

So what the people at the hospital did was they would talk about my asperger's with my parents and then I later went into a room with a whole bunch of toys and art stuff and they watched as I played around.

I had fun in there but at the same time I thought "what is going on??".
I wasn't upset, just really confused. There was a lot of talking to my parents about things but not to me. At least that was how I felt anyways.
In hindsight, I guess they wanted to see how I do things. But you know, more communication would've been nice. :P

And there were a few times when other kids were there and found that I had many similarities to them, but I didn't know why that was. :) Of course, I guess it's obvious they had asperger's.
But I didn't know. No one told me.

In their defense, I was pretty young when those appointments happened. I guess they didn't realize how smart I was at figuring out things. :D And also, I was pretty shy, so of course it was hard for them to know what I wanted to learn. :)

I choose not to dwell on that, but I thought to share it. :D
