[quote=Anonymous]At least you have something definitive. Envision "the spectrum" from left to right, the former "Aspberger's" on the left and various more issues as one progresses to the right. An actual spectrum. We are convinced our own DD is as close to that left side line as you can get, but just doesnt tick all the boxes for ANYthing in the DSM. Anxiety, maybe, but just barely. I'm starting to realize, there are adults everywhere that are either high-functioning ASD or pre-spectral and just aren't diagnosed. And is there really a solid line between "normal" (average, whatever) and the Spectrum? Labels are strange things. Having a diagnosis though opens up resources to you that will be good. [/quote]
