    My 33 year old son was finally diagnosed with Aspergers after many years of misdiagnosed concerns. The most important thing is to accept and love your friend and please do a lot of research so that you understand what she has gone through. Also, if necessary a good psychiatrist is helpful with meds if she has depression, anger, or other issues. She is lucky to have a great friend!

    Keep being a good friend. Be patient with her and help her process the diagnosis. Even though she has obviously had this her whole life it will still feel new a scary. <3
