omg yea and im in intensive treatment rn for ptsd
i've genuinely thought about being on the autism spectrum a lot of times, i even got to tell my therapist and she just denied it like she knew me her whole life, so i never spoke about it again. but yeah, i don't really have any advice though
super early on tho
i have really bad anxiety as well and have been diagnosed late and then undiagnosed with adhd
i am struggling i feel like especially with motivation to try to be an adult in a world where im not motivated to try to be so human all the time
i was diagnosed with ocd when i was 4 or 5
Is autism related to ocd? I have found hanging out with folks on the spectrum to be very calming for me (I do a board game meet up where they are higher population of autistic folks). I feel like I don't have to put in as much effort around them and they don't trigger me nearly as much as other folks.
Yeah I’ve been learning more about both and turns out they happen together relatively often. One reason why autism didn’t occur to me until recently. Thought it was all just OCD!
@balexan8 I kinda want to get tested lol
(you don't have to mask as much around people on the spectrum😃)
Yea exactly! I feel like I can be totally honest and relax... that's definitely it! Thanks.
