Hi! My name is Alyssa. I'm 26 years old. I haven't been officially diagnosed yet. I'm going to be seeing a psychologist in November. I'm very anxious and slightly nervous. The question whether I have AS or not has been plaguing my mind for months now. When I first heard of Aspergers (my husband's second cousin was diagnosed with it earlier this year) it kind of hit a nerve in me, but I very quickly brushed it off. Not for long, as it caught my curiosity. Even if I didn't have it, I wanted to learn about it. Of course the more I learn about it, the more I believe I have it.

Anyways, it's a little ways away yet, but wish me luck. As I said, I am quite nervous. What if I find out that I don't have Aspergers? Then what more am I than a social misfit? If it turns out I don't have AS, then I still don't belong anywhere.

Sorry, I don't mean to be a downer. That has been on my chest for so long. I don't know who to talk to about it most of the time, so you have no idea how good that felt.

Ok. So that seems like enough for now. I look forward to talking to you all in the future. Thanks.
