My # 1 piece of advice for anyone pursuing an autism evaluation, ESPECIALLY if you're high masking... Do NOT go into the evaluation without first reading and understanding the autism criteria and writing down every example you can think of from your life for each one...

Loving the #TVSeries Astrid: Murder in Paris on @channel4.bsky.social It gives quite an accurate insight into what it’s like being #ActuallyAutistic in a #neurotypical dominated world. Sometimes feels over-acted but accurate enough. #NeurodiverseSquad

Today's reminder: the autistic spectrum means each person has their own specific version of autism, shaped by their internal and external environment and life experience, expressed in a unique way. It's all of this, not just one part. Autism can't be a linear scale going from less to more autistic.
