how autism affects your personality
After learning that my most prominent personality traits (socially oversharing as a child, no childhood sense of stranger danger, socially withdrawing, still a strong tendency to overshare when I do talk, etc) are related to autism, I'm left to wonder what personality I have left.

ASD, most likely have dyscalculia & BPD as well. Also dx'd ADHD-C, but don't think it's accurate.
RAADs: 104 | ASQ: 30 | Aspie Quiz: 116/200 (84% probability of being atypical)
Also diagnosed with: seasonal depression, anxiety, OCD
Many of my preferences are due to sensory aspects and socially non-conforming aspects.
On the flip side, my human hung ups "uses" my autistic expressions and processing.
My aggression is upbringing, my poor regulation only made it less appropriate.
My aggression is not autistic, but unfortunately 'the human person trauma', but my reactions and perceptions are autistic.
In essence, I'd be worse off without autism.
Without autism, I'd be anti-social, not asocial.
My non-autistic aspects of my personality are very much to do with my upbringing and genetics.
It's the reason why I'm an ambivert, not an introvert.
