[quote=Anonymous]There is a tendency in families to see patterns when a family member is newly diagnosed. I've seen this in my own family. The fact that you are or were socially awkward and have a tendency toward repetitive motion does not make you a person with ASD, OP. That's way too simplistic and really kind of an obnoxious way of looking at ASD. It's as if you were just diagnosed with arthritis and I said to you "Oh, I sometimes feel achy in the morning too! I must have arthritis!"[/quote]
