Hnnnn. (That, apparently, is the noise I make when I'm on the fence. Who knew?)
I think it can be dodgy to co-opt specific diagnoses (although in your case, as you describe things, I think it would certainly be fair to say "I'm on the autistic spectrum", for example).
The problem is that there are so many variables - I have mild OCD and moderate (severe when untreated) anxiety disorder with agoraphobia / soial anxiety), but I definitely wouldn't class myself as autistic or having Asperger's.
