[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 78666, member: 1550"] Weeping, believe it or not things have changed a lot in ten years! I was tested this year because I was ordered to be tested (has to do with Disability). I was dxd. with a severe NonVerbal Learning Disorder (NVLD) (verbal IQ near 120 and performance 88). I know all bout what it is--I live it. They told me that there are many professionals who now feel that Aspergers and a NonVerbal Learning Disorder (NVLD) are one and the same--times they are a-changing. Now the neuropsychologist who tested ME is not convinced they are the same. I was told my demeanor is too friendly for Aspergers. Okie dokie, I don't really care, however, I have tons and tons of Aspie traits and have so many problems holding jobs, all related to Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) type issues (even though I don't have the diagnosis.) that I don't think they really KNOW yet--they are years away from figuring all of it out. They know I can't make changes and if anything changes in the work place, I can't adjust to it without being shown how to do it all over again--it is very frustrating.
