I'm glad you are talking to a doctor who can properly recognize your condition. It can be frustrating to have a faulty diagnosis and incorrect means of treatment. So you are on the right track now and hopefully your progress will improve.
I have a good friend with Asperger's syndrome and he is a very successful and powerful patent attorney. He's 43 years old and copes with his issues well. When I first him, I had a difficult time realizing anything was different about him. He does have a couple social quirks but nothing glaringly obvious. It is difficult for him to talk on the phone, because he can't see the person's face on the other end. Seeing people's faces makes it a lot easier for him. Overall he has adjusted very well to being autistic and he doesn't let it alienate him or make him feel any less human. Just keep your head held high and use Chris, my friend, as a positive example. He is brilliant and one of the most amazing people I know.
