Hi.
I'm Gaz, and I'm 53, and I recently made the interesting discovery, by accident, that I fitted the profile of Asperger's syndrome. Which was a shock, but also explained a lot about the last 53 years...
I took the AQ test and scored 42. Now, I'm uncertain of the relevance of this but one of my friends took it as well, and scored 17.
So, armed with this, a week's worth of research and reading these community notes I made an appointment to see my local doctor.
Who told me *You've got a job. You can't have Asperger's. That's Autism. So you don't have it*, gave me 5 printed A4 sheets of information on Asperger's in infants and sent me home.
I'm feeling somewhat agrieved, and in no small measure let down.
Where do I go from here?
GAZ
