I’ve been diagnosed with autism before. Always wondered if it was correct or not. I’ve always struggled with masking but now I’m wondering if it was trauma/ocd that made me act that way. I definitely understand masking though.
@Vivian08Vivian Focus on how you feel and only tell people that. Don’t try to rationalize it to them. You’re more likely to be validated that way.
@Vivian08Vivian Over sharing is okay if you’re trying to open up to your family or a professional. Just make sure your feelings are coming from you and not your thoughts and how you truly feel in a situation is SUPER important to getting a proper diagnosis.
