Huh...This post especially makes me think. I kinda "stim", I guess...my doc thought I had ADHD because I did a lot of repetitive things. And I'm not social, either...sometimes it gets weird just thinking about it. And I can talk for hours about one thing I apparently know almost 30000x more about than anyone else. People tell me to change subjects a lot...and most of the time when they make jokes in front of me, I can't tell. Sometimes my feelings even get hurt.
How would someone know if they had Aspergers? Is there, like, a test for it?
they do have the AQ test online, its available on Mayo clinics website. Normal people score around 10-16, and 29 or higher can indicate aspergers, mild autism,to severe autism. I scored a 37.

as for an official test, you could talk to a doctor and ask for one.
