Hello. I’m in my mid 20s. I was mute in my early youth and had to attend speech therapy classes in preschool and early in elementary school, and I rode the short bus. I played with and spoke to my stuffed toys until I was in middle school and that was when my parents took them away. My family always said that I was an odd child, but only in recent years did they suspect that I was on the spectrum. To this day, I’ve never been officially diagnosed.
Thanks. Do you think there would be any benefit in getting an official diagnosis as an adult?

That’s nice. I live in the US. I have health insurance, maybe my insurance might cover some of it.
Unfortunately, you will have to pay a lot out of pocket to get a formal diagnosis in the United States.
Ah, I see. Well, there’s no rush.
