I'm ADHD and Aspergerish (whatever that means). What characteristics do you have which led to you being identified as AS? I'm curious as there's not a lot of info out there about AS girls.

I suspect aspergers, as it is in my family. I don't have any obvious traits though. But did as a baby. My mom thinks I
learned certain "normal" behaviors.

Speaking of AS traits...
The "theory of mind" is interesting. I often assume someone knows where my mind is (what I am thinking or feeling), when they obviously couldn't.
I wonder if it some parts of AS are some kind of primal throw-back as it is thought that primitive humans may have had a linked conciousness.

I also think that language development played a large role in losing our linked conciousness.
And another reason that AS people can seem un-empathetic is that we haven't adapted to reading external cues and responding outwardly as our brain doesn't quite respond with the modern requirements in communication.

How's that for comming out of left field?? Couldn't help it.
