I'm making this thread to discuss autism and autism-related issues. Do I have autism? And what can be done to cope with it? I suffer from issues with anger, and certain things really trigger me. For example, if I spill a cup of coffee or I get onions on my burger, I will get on the verge of tears. If anyone says no to me or yells at me, I either almost cry or get pissed off for the rest of the day. Is this normal?

I am often jokingly diagnosed with autism by KiwiFarms users, but do I really have autism? Comment down below. and Feel free to share your personal experiences with autistic people and discuss if you have autism or not. Oh yeah, some more things regarding my potential autism: I suffer from OCD, which I have read is closely linked to autism. I am also somewhat gullible at times, and jokes fly over my head, but overall I function normally enough to not give the impression anything is wrong, but is everything alright? Obviously not, but do I have autism? That's for you to decide.

TLDR: Talk about autism.

Ok, I understand getting extra emotional over conflict or, heck, even spilling coffee on your clothes. But crying over onions on your burger? When you can just... pull them out?

Perhaps it's not autism but you just being a huge whiny pussy. You are supposed to grow out of this baby tantrum at least by high school.
 
Everyone I know IRL that used autism as an excuse for their behavior was a piece of shit. And I mean dumb piece of shit who thinks he's smart, not an actual self-aware retard or a self-centered genius.

The autistic people who were even slightly tolerable invariably were the latter two, and most importantly didn't say "I'm le autistic" as an excuse for everything. You could pick up on it if you spent enough time around them, but they wouldn't immediately say it whenever they did something dumb/tactless.
