    Wow, 11 hours later and still no response.

    I read your post 10 hours ago. 5his is a thing I often wondered about too, in general but the more I found out about (my) neurodivergence the more I learned that there’s just not much knowledge at all.

    Of course it seems different but it’s barely scratching the surface. So it wouldn’t surprise me that things like this are highly relevant (I know the impact specific music has on me) but basically unknown.





  • No need to explain (the reasoning), we know the pain.

    Yeah moody and all that crap. Endless social crap. Sometimes tolerance but no understanding.

    Paid for my diagnosis myself, objectively (aq, EQ and another one) completely on the spectrum but refusal of the diagnosis because I don’t look like it. Thats some kind of meta burn and discrimination. Still, nothing we can do.





  • The issue is not where on the scale of functional you are, it’s that 99% members of society work/are neurotypical. I’m so far on the functional scale that >40 years went by without me noticing my autism. The result: many crashes, health damage and lots of unhappiness. Also alexithymia.

    The I got really angry for what I had to go through and yet there still is absolutely no public or health support regarding this even though I am in Europe. You know, because to them I don’t look like an autistic young boy.

    The concept of masking is not yet anywhere to be seen in their awareness.

    Anyhow, apologies for rambling on.

    It’s invisible differences, as in the awesome comic, which is the issue.
