Only potential "issue" is Psychopaths and Sociopaths incorrectly self-diagnosising themselves as ASD... but that is still a start towards health
1. Get on a future eugenics registry and receive state-sanctioned crumbs of ‘support.’
2. Stay off it and learn to accommodate and validate yourself without waiting for systems built to erase you to recognize your worth.
She's opened my eyes to the fact that I may also have autism.
I started trying to get a diagnosis about a year ago and gave up a few weeks ago when I decided I didn't want to be on a registry.
And at A$1800 min and a huge wait I have better things to focus on !!
No one who be afraid of learning how they themselves work. Worst case you
