I´ve allways been theweird one and have been problematized a lot.
After University (big deal for me) I had a couple of years, where I felt, shall we say "competent".
"At last", I thought.
It was an official academic personality, who could master anything in a matter of very short time. The belief itself worked some of the way, but only if everything went as expected.
I managed to "cheat" two employers last year during my hunt for a jobtraining with prospects (job afterwards), but only for a short period. Then I fell because I was unable to process things in a turbulent environment and I was adviced by my mentor not to "act" anymore., when it became clear to her, that I had aspergers. Well it was new to me as well.
That was about it....my "normal" period.
The rest of my life - before and after, I have been weird.
After dx, I don´t feel so bad about it.
