@Adventurer@nddev@cinnamon@autism101@Bard@actuallyautistic What they said. I have been exploring this on & off for nearly 3 years. Had reached a point where I was pretty sure, then saw one brief description of childhood autism that nailed it. That was me at 7. Still learning. I wanted to tell the world, because it explained so much, but not everyone else will see it that way. Reaching out to & meeting up irl with another autistic woman in my age group is helping a lot.
