After being institutionalized and having the autism test and getting light therapy and weighted blankets during intake to help me sleep, I checked my early childhood report cards and realized I didn't verbalize a word till grade 2-3. I also remember around that time I punched through a patio door because my dad wouldn't let me play who let the dogs out on blast late at night while they were smoking pot outside. It's also why I'm left handed as well
 
No. Autism exists and is a serious issue, but for a specific range of people. The real problem with this condition, as the original Dr. Asperger theorized, is people whose eccentric habits and inability to catch social cues mean they cannot build relationships with others.

People with strong attention to detail, who read a lot of nonfiction, are passionate about particular hobbies, or struggle with social interactions get labeled autistic. Even worse is when they label themselves.

This label often oversimplifies and fails to capture broader sociological issues facing the intelligent or lonely.
