Wow...I'm glad you got a diagnosis that seems to fit for you. I just got back from a meeting on autism, and one of the things that struck me was the incredible variation in symptoms and severity. The other thing that I found interesting was the theory that people with autism have a hard time conceptualizing the relationships between themselves and others - they basically don't have a strong self-concept, and that's what makes social engagement difficult. Anyhow, I'd be curious about your perceptions about that.
