I guess there is a bit more counselling to be tackled at some point in the future. Incidentally, I find counselling to be immensely helpful, when it is done right. I find it difficult to see my own problems much of the time (I can see the minute detail, but not the big picture, and it's often the big picture that tells you how to tackle something), and counselling can help me see what I need to.

You are unique and there are lots of things you can do that neurotypicals can't. You just need to learn to see that for yourself. How's that for a bit of Aspie hard sell? ;) At some point James you are going to have to stop worrying about what people think of you.
