I am the same. Even if I haven't done anything stupid that I remember, I get the embarrassed cringes simply due to the fact that I got so drunk.

If I were to for some reason wake up early, I am extremely tired. I find it traumatic waking up early. My body seems to suffer also in many ways. Once awake I'm usually okay until early afternoon when I'll start to feel extremely tired again. As you probably guessed, I'm wide awake when it comes to bed time.

I can actually imagine that I have at some point poisoned myself with alcohol. I've never been to hospital due to alcohol, but I had been seriously inebriated on some notable occasions. I have an excellent skill of not appearing to be too drunk in front of other people.

Well my therapist said that they "wont diagnose adults in the West Midlands". As far as I'm concerned, I knew I had something all along but just couldn't put a name to it. Any official confirmation which is needed would come from her.

Hey all, just found this forum and signed up. I was unofficially diagnosed with AS this year after seeing a psychotherapist for a few months who was treating my anxiety disorder. I'm sure a lot of you are in the situation where you wont be officially diagnosed because you're too old which is exactly my case, however the therapist was adamant that this was what I have. While I'm writing this I may as well ask: Is it common for anyone else here to struggle/have struggled in education, particularly college/university with completing work. This has been and is the case for myself all my life, so I was just wondering if this is common ground for other AS sufferers.
