Angie, People on the spectrum are all said to have a triad of impairment, that is how ia diagnosis is made along with a history of development.

So interesting ...... I'm sure that it's only these "oddnesses" that make us progress to any degree as a species. For example, I have only ever met one person who has synaesthesia - always seeing numbers etc in colours. She was an art teacher and a very able one.

I could say similar, but would get no points for doing so... I've got AS - very mildly and often not noticable even by my closest friends, but a psych diagnosed me, so there no mistake...
