[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 515867, member: 11791"] I wish I knew the stats... but Aspies and ASDs are extremely over represented in the field of science... On top of that... ADD (now called ADHD-inattentive type) is very frequently missed as a diagnosis. I'm ADD... no hyper at all. Just... major difficulties handling distraction unless I'm in hyper-focus mode.... but the distraction bit didn't really show up until I was married with two difficult child school-age kids... and juggling a career around that! So... you might actually BE one of "us"... but it really doesn't matter... we are not our labels, we are ourselves. [/QUOTE]
