I'm a 33 year old woman with children, married, self employed.
Have had a slew of different diagnoses over the years that never fit (was always classified as "atypical [insert diagnosis here]". My eldest went through the diagnostic process for autism last year, and as there is a genetic component (and we are quite similar in behaviors) I went for testing too. Have my official HFA diagnosis since last December. I'm still not entirely convinced I have Aspergers or HFA, however the diagnosis seems to explain my difficulties the best.
