I have mild Aspergers. Trust me it's nothing at all to be ashamed of or embarrassesd about. I don't take medication of any sort, and I find it very managable. I find the most difficult part of Aspergers is for the people around me to understand it , even in the least. I would suggest doing alot of research on the topic, this will help you understand yourself alot more. I'm not nerdy or anything but, I am very intellectual, Aspergers is very fascinating, and some of the most intellectual people in history were AspergersMy girlfriend is a Special Ed teacher and she would have never guessed I had if I wouldn't have told her. One thing that aggravates me is people sometimes confuse aspergers and autism, which are two totally different things.
