  • Thanks, it makes me so angry being sort of a cast out of society and then you even have to fight to get that acknowledged.

    They’re not specialized in atypicals and adults and the result is expected - I’m atypical so they don’t see it in me. However at least it confirmed that in all done tests (4) my values are completely off the normal range aka well in ASS.

    Still they deny. But maybe it’ll be a help to get a place for a better diagnosis.














  • Hm. I see where you’re coming from. Currently I am really oversensitive regarding this topic because it quickly slips into the ‘It’s not so bad’ and ‘just pull yourself together’ territory.

    And to be fair, sometimes that is right. But in general it leads to masking, breakdowns and burnouts which I experienced.

    Hence the sensitivity.

    I think this possibly makes sense for a Spectrum in general. I would also never want people to treat me over sensitive, either, so there we go.

    Being able to communicate was always a great thing.


  • Strider@lemmy.worldtoAutism@lemmy.worldDo you agree?

    You can’t, yet.

    And that’s what makes it suck even more.

    It’s like with all people you just needed to believe that their suffering is real until it was provable. They never got an apology to having to suffer through being blamed as faking illness. And yes, even if faked or just subjectively bad, what’s the point? Why should they make it up?

    As an example: I was blamed by my neurologist of faking and whining and a mrt proved I have multiple sclerosis. Yay, I win… I guess??

    The point being: this is /autism. If you’re going to blame, just leave. Even if not everything has to be about neurodivergence, here it is.

    Apologies for reacting this pissed, but my (energy) spoons are all spent because it’s Friday and was hell of a week to cope but that’s probably also something everyone has to manage…
