Getting Diagnosed with Aspergers

To make a long story short my mom and I went to my pediatrician and brought up my sensory problems and he said "just from spending 5 minutes with you it looks like high functioning autism". So he referred us to a psychologist and I had 2 appointments with her and got diagnosed with aspergers.

Now for a little back ground information.

When I was a little kid I was quirky but pretty (for use of better words) normal.  Though I was very shy around people I didn't know well, I was good at playing games, with toys, or any activity that had some structure to it.  I did and still do have problems with some things such as reading, writing, and fine motor skills, but I was home schooled so all that could be accommodated for pretty well.

When I got to be about 12, I started having some social problems.  Socializing became more about just hanging out and talking, and I started having trouble in groups of people I wasn't already comfortable with and making new friend.  This is also When I realized that most people make a lot more eye contact then I do.  I had always been a sensitive and spirited child but I started having more sensory processing problems.

I will end this post with a random picture.  Please don't take my pictures with out permission.
