@Shelfie is working with autistic adults, and is doing the modules.

i am still awaiting a formal assessment, but it seems to be the general consensus.

I'm by no means an expert but your particular brand of whatever it is you are intersects hard with whatever particular brand I am, and I'm apparently autistic up and out the wazoo. Super autism. It would be extremely surprising to me if you were not. If you're not you are a new thing, the likes of which has never been seen on this planet under our yellow star. Perhaps the End Times.

Reminded of when daughter got diagnosed. Spouse started reading. Started going, oh, that makes sense now. Looking at me, of course. 🤔

i have always been different.
i just put it down to having a mentally ill mother, boarding school and being small and brown.
i have seen tons of shrinks, none ever considered it.
@Shivviness told me to suggest it to one, and they agreed.
but in grampian it is diagnosed by the autism assessment team, who have a 4 year waiting list.
you can go private if you want.
i think it is hilarious that when i was a doctor, who had difficulty handling emotional situations, and who saw so many shrinks, that it was never considered.

I've always been different and I'm pretty sure it's because I am an alien and they just made a mistake
@TheBreadmonkey @amiserabilist @Shelfie @MAJ1 @Shivviness Well I’m the same as all of you so… wait… 🤔 If I’m different… but I’m the same as all of you…
This hurts.
