I think I might be neurodivergent. There's a part of me that wants to get a diagnosis and see what I am, but there's another part of me that is just so scared, and I don't know what to do.

I totally get this!! It's valid to be scared, but personally it helped me know myself better and help others educate themselves about autism. A diagnosis will now change who you are but it can help you see yourself and the world in a different light🫶��

I HATE it when this happens. I'm not trying to look upset, but my face is just matching my feelings

Do weirdos send you death threats on this app? I heard that it's very common.

No just sugar daddy's and scams 😅

i have multiple questions (if you already answered these questions before, my apologies! please link where you already have, if you can! /nf), did you get a professional diagnosis for autism? if so, when did you get diagnosed (like, in terms of the stage in life, i guess)? and, if you were the one who decided to get a diagnosis for yourself, why did you?

i think i may be neurodivergent but i'm not sure, and so i want to hear about your experiences as an autistic person. i know the experience will vary person to person because autism is a spectrum (and there is a good possibility i am not neurodivergent!), but i still think there is something worth learning regardless

Hiiii! Don't worry I actually haven't really talked about it. I got professionally diagnosed when I was 18. I've always had a hard time navigating the world and trying to "be normal". I've had plenty of different therapists that also didn't really know what to do with me. I've also had some really bad depression for some years, but I wasn't really being heard.

One day I got a really good life coach that actually put her door down and talked to my parents about getting some professional help from a psychiatrist and getting a diagnosis. A lot of things fell into place and learning about autism has been really interesting.

It really helped finally learning how my brain works and how to communicate that with other people. I also have antidepressants for my depression and I feel a lot happier now.

I hope this helped 🙂

Someone told me that autistic people live shorter lives (on average) and I didn't believe it, but then I looked it up.

There could be a bunch of different conclusions of why (worse heart health due to stress, intens medications, lifestyle, depression etc) when I read some articles, but this is the first time I've heard about it in my life.

Kinda crazy tbh

Sometimes it feels like everyone around me is speaking in a secret language and I'm the only one who doesn't know it.
