It’s funny that you brought that up because I’m starting to realize I might be different idk if it’s autism or something else but there’s a good chance I might be…. Tho the process of getting a proper diagnosis when ur a girl sounds like hell. My brother was diagnosed with autism when he was really young but nobody ever suspected anything to be wrong w me because I was able to fit in just fine but now that I’m older I feel out of the ordinary
You can take the RAADS-r assessment for free online, it takes like 10 minutes and can give you a pretty good idea as to whether or not you’re autistic There’s also a huge disparity in diagnoses between boys and girls because women are better at masking/have a lot more social consequences for not masking so they learn quicker. Might be worth looking into!
Well to be frank I don’t care that hard about trying to figure out where I fall within the labels because I feel like nobody can describe what it’s like to be me and how i perceive myself so I think labels don’t truly define my entire experience so they aren’t always fitting. Yes I am afab and I’m comfortable with my body, I don’t care about altering it— I just find it difficult to behave “correctly” with women and it affects me because I mainly desire relationships with women instead of men.
