I was never diagnosed - there was no such diagnosis then. Soviet psychiatry didn't bother with such niceties. :) But I fit the description 20 out of 20. I'm 34 now, you didn't see my social skills when I was 15 or even 20. :) I learned them, and it was a bloody hard work, but I still have problems here and there.
Tell me about soviet psychiatry. I passed my foreign language graduate exam in Russian, based on finding three scientific articles in Russian in the area of psychology. All were bogus except one.
I am so sympathetic. You must have worked very hard.
I didn't really have any other options - the society there is much less forgiving than here. But at least I have a living proof :) that such things can be compensated. So far doctors are telling me that he might compensate to a normal level by the late teens. No prob. So he'll have a long childhood, so what?
