It has been suggested that I, too, may have a mild form of Asperger's. There is no concrete definition, but some common symptoms. There really is no medical treatment, but I know of a few who benefit from psychotherapy. Depression can be quite common in adolescence, probably due to social isolation & alienation. Even if I don't have Asperger's, I've found that some of the techniques used by aspers have been very helpful for me (especially with school and social problems). If you find any good information, please share it -- I would be very interested.
