    *FreudsList is a website offering the public and opportunity to
    interact with each other and qualified mental health professionals.
    "FreudsList was created to facilitate interaction between mental
    health professionals and the general public. Lets face it, there are a
    myriad of online forums offering opinions and anecdotal advice by
    people who lack any real qualifications.
    FreudsList is a remedy for this problem in the area of mental health
    and self-improvement. It is a place where people have credible
    resources to whom they can ask questions specific to their lives. It is
    also a place where people can find support and identification from
    other members in similar circumstances. All of which can be done
    anonymously (if desired)."

    Wrong Planet is the web community designed for individuals (and
    parents of those) with Autism, Asperger's Syndrome, ADHD,
    PDDs, and other neurological differences. "The website provides a
    discussion forum, where members communicate with each other, an
    article section, with exclusive articles and how-to guides, a blogging
    feature, and a chatroom for real-time communication with other
    Aspies. Asperger's Syndrome, a pervasive development disorder, is a
    form of autism. People with Asperger's Syndrome usually have
    normal or above normal IQs. Asperger's can be described as an
    inability to understand how to interact socially."
