I think a big part of it was also not telling me about it as well so i couldn't use that as an excuse. I didn't even find out until in my 20's and asked "Hey, remember that time you took me to that hospital and they interviewed me for hours and did all these tests? What was that?"Your mom is incredibly based. This confirms something I've thought for awhile that's now becoming a more mainstream idea, autism is overdiagnosed and being diagnosed with autism leads to far worse social outcomes when the kid actually believes they're autistic, even if they're not.
Just another cool and fun way psychiatry likes to ruin todays kids! There's so many! Choose your favorite!
Meanwhile, her best friend's son had similar issues but instead but got the full chemical experience and is now a gay brony shut-in that can't hold down a job at even a pizza place and constantly uses muh autism as an excuse for everything.
