Asperger syndrome

online tests (which i do not belive in:cb:) told me i have Asperger syndrome…

have anyone heard about it?

i googled it,*
By definition, those with AS have a normal IQ and many individuals (although not all), exhibit exceptional skill or talent in a specific area. Because of their high degree of functionality and their naiveté, those with AS are often viewed as eccentric or odd and can easily become victims of teasing and bullying. While language development seems, on the surface, normal, individuals with AS often have deficits in pragmatics and prosody. Vocabularies may be extraordinarily rich and some children sound like “little professors.” However, persons with AS can be extremely literal and have difficulty using language in a social context.*

but would like to have some real life feedback from people who know/met someone who have it
