I went to a psychologist, and I then looked him up on the computer and it said he specializes in ADHD.I was thinking, "So, when did you become a specialist on Asperger's Syndrome?, 2 weeks ago?" He knew nothing about AS or PDD-NOS. He just kept looking in a book, I was certain I knew more than him.( I had a Asperger's Syndrome book with me, HE ASKED ME IF HE COULD SEE IT.)I was thinking, "I'm not going to get a proper diagnosis from him." I can't even express to him all the problems I have, so I'm about to get stuck with Social Anxiety Disorder, which I believe, for me, is a co-morbid to PDD-NOS. The psychologist is stuck on me not having fixations or obsessions, he thinks because at the moment I don't have a special interest, I don't have autism, when like everything else fits(I obsess over certain ideas, not a certain topic). Too bad I can't tell him all the problems that I have. I don't believe I have AS, but PDD-NOS, yes.I'm so mad, he doesn't know anything.   Revised.
