I'm excited to see what everyone else's said, if we have a lot in common, and if some of us have some funny stuff too.

Some selections from my report (I was diagnosed as an adult, but my mother was interviewed as part of the process):

Sitting in small places/repetitive movements e.g., as a child sitting for hours under mums sewing machine playing with buttons
Limited playing with toys but fixated areas of interests
Not allowing foods to touch each other, noted issues with colour and texture of foods
Very formal language even as a child no child talk
