>>12705327Same. I am diagnosed autistic and didn't get the diagnostic until my thirties. It explained so much about my childhood and young adult life and why I suffered.
But it sucks. I don't want to be like this, it's embarrassing and I do things that are embarrassing to myself after the fact. Most of my life is spent cringing at shit I did the day before, because I was too autistic to realise I'd been speaking for 90 minutes non stop about a topic nobody else cared about and they were too polite to tell me I was boring them.
How these bitches use this as some fashionable excuse for being sluts is annoying. It's not fashionable and it's not fun. According to research published last year, the life expectancy for men with autism is 39. So I'll statistically be likely dead within a decade. Is this where I'm supposed to be having fun now?
