I long researched autism when my wife suggested I could be autistic. Then I did 3 years of research.
I grew up pretty isolated and never learned to mask, I also knew from young I was trans but had no idea I was autistic.
I later had issues still with being a loner and got treated for depression, Dr thought I may be bipolar or manic depressive (both common misdiagnoses) but I wasnโt
There is also a ton of co-morbidity between adhd and autism, it's frequent someone will point out some trait to have it also affect autistic people
i too feel like i never really learned to mask, i'm in compsci so i feel like it's much more tolerated there haha. i was in the gifted program when i was young and so everyone thought my quirks were because i was secretly einstein and "so much smarter than everyone around me" (which always grossed me out)... i feel like that stupid iq test i took set me up for failure, lol
Yeah I got the "you're so mature for your age" a lot and moved up classes because I was more advanced. I went through a pretty traumatic childhood with abusive parents so everything went under the radar and nobody realised I was being abused at home along with being trans/autistic.
oof, that brought up some memories for me too
It's incredibly common, I lost count the amount of people recited that line ^^
