| Guys I'm so sorry, I was just wondering. My mom never implied that was a cause for autism. I'm seeking official diagnosis myself and doing research. If I offended anyone, I'm truly sorry. No disrespect intended. |

| I'm dealing with a toxic family member who is actively building an alliance against me so I feel like a target. They are extended family I'm staying with and she has a decent amount of influence...and money. |
