    Awaiting diagnosis... and READY!

    Hello, I'm a noob. My family has been discovering the many shades of autism in our youngest generation.

    I'm a recently diagnosed 19 year old male living with Asperger Syndrome. I have always been a little "off" since I was very young. Abnormal sensitivity to sound, slow gross and fine motor development, and an eccentric attitude and vocabulary defined my early childhood. As I grew older and...
