I apologize. In my family the nice way to say it was always “mental illness”, and we have it by the ton, but I don’t know whether autism played a role. My grandma raised a heap of kids while also very unwell. Could be for me, but again, post traumatic stress. Also I’m not a woman, but my sister is older and has her own story.
No apology needed at all 👍 this just makes me glad I asked for details. I meant your Mom. She sounds by your description of the situation like how people treat ADHD women who are “high functioning”.

Yes, I love my mom and she is eccentric, to say the least
