Personally I think that the increase in diagnosis frequency, is due to better screening methods and a broadening of who might be considered autistic, now, versus say, a couple of decades ago and beyond. That’s what I think also. Also even until the 80s and probably also 90s was a huge stigma when i... |

I was so happy about it and my cat ... |

I think it’s interesting that several here relate to many disorders… it’s simply because our brains are wired in very unique ways in my opinion. What affects me the most is my trauma and my mood disorder, if I could deal with those in a better way, this would change a lot I think. The most annoying ... |

Yes, my social skills also increased after transitioning. But also also has to do with stress relief. I can cope better in a social world when I feel better.
But transitioning was very hard for me and my dysthymia never vanished. |

Well my brother is a narc and I needed quite a while to figure it out. There might be some overlap, but also many differences. He had severe ADHD as a child. He’s constantly lying, even about little things. I probably had never really a conversation with him where he wasn’t lying, especially when he... |

Non sono italiano, ma ho abitato nel nord Italia da un anno. Ho studiato qui la pasticceria e ho anche lavorato qui in un albergo da pasticcere del ristorazione e dell’albergo. Mi ho piaciuto molto Italia, mi piaceva particolarmente Torino. Ma lavorare in Italia era difficile per me. |

It's transphobic, ableist BS. The doctor that intentionally left out your autism diagnosis on your file was probably aware of this phenomenon, and was trying to help make sure you got the care you needed (since in the past you weren't aloud to transition because they saw you were autistic) Yes, I t... |

Ha, I have tourettes light. Hardly anyone notices my tics and I don't have many and not too frequent. A few grimaces, I have to look into mirrors or car windows and stick tongue out or grimace. I have some head roll tics as well. The vocal tics are the most annoying. I’ve very light tics too and al... |
