    Hi I'm 21 forgot to mention that!

    I've not gone through the proper indepth test but from doing the one online with a specialist (took forvever to get that appointment!) he said there is enough evidence for the diagnosis of aspergers so its on my records and I have a fab social worker who is helping so much!

    Before all this there was just a diagnosis of anxiety/depression and I had mirtazapine and fluoxtine but said they weren't working because it wasn't taking all of the problems away now I understand that they weren't going to do that.

    Now i'm going through lots of changes in order to make my future better so reconsidering medication to help me cope with it all!
