    Yup. The difference now is that people are getting diagnosed. A friend of mine got diagnosed with add in her mid 60s, then got diagnosed with autism in her mid 70’s. I met her when she was ~80, and she said that getting the autism diagnosis made her life finally make sense. She always had it, she just didn’t understand why she was different.
