Oof okay I think I get it. We were kind of talking over you a bit then by assuming you meant autism. No I've also known ADHD people who can be pretty normative with at least their social skills. It kind of makes everyone overlook all the trauma and organizational things that they DO struggle with, especially if they're women.

    I apologize. In my family the nice way to say it was always "mental illness", and we have it by the ton, but I don't know whether autism played a role. My grandma raised a heap of kids while also very unwell. Could be for me, but again, post traumatic stress. Also I'm not a woman, but my sister is older and has her own story.
