So the first time I took the RAADS-R autism screening test I got 64. I did not realize that "I dislike thing x but do not outwardly react to it" is the same as "I dislike x". Retaking the screener with that misconception removed I got 190. That... that is a lot of autism. XD

#yeah I will probably go ahead and get an official diagnosis #it's not like my blind queer adhd ass is going to get any more or less ostracized #by adding one more thing on the pile #and having some language and knowledge for me to research is always helpful #but man holy shit XD #I had actually blocked out a ton of Very Obvious Autism 101 behaviors I had as a kid #that were forcefully trained out of me or taken away #or just full on bullied right out #but they're still here and I am already researching ways to get them back in some capacity #for as wild as all this is it is the most hopeful I've been in years #razz rambles
