However no-one on TSR will be able to diagnose you since we're not trained health professionals so it's probably best to see your GP about something like this
You have to remember we're not all the same. What makes you think you have it? There's a lot of crossover between Aspergers and mental health conditions, such as OCD.
That's why I wanted to ask TSR users their idea of what it is, to get a variety so I can see the various indications.
I've looked on websites, etc, and I seem to have some of the indications, such as social awkwardness, etc. However, I recently took an online test which said I wasn't autistic, so I'm not sure.

Those tests aren't accurate. But if you have social awkwardness, that could be something like social anxiety?
Not always. And you'd have to have far more symptoms for a diagnosis of Aspergers.
To be honest, I don't really see the point of getting diagnosed with Asperger's in the first place. It's not a mental illness, it's just a difference. I don't get why people define people being different as needing a diagnosis.

Because for some of us, it is actually quite a serious a problem.
