Can some autism expert help me out here, because I’ve kinda thought over the possibility of being autistic multiple times before and I never come to any sort of satisfactory conclusion, so it’s just this question mark that looms over me. I don’t think it should really matter that much and I am leaning towards the conclusion of not being autistic, but it is frustrating that I don’t really know. I assume living as a socially isolated tranny for a long time probably causes social akwardness just by itself.

    you could have autism like traits but no actual autism due to what you mentioned but it’s hard to tell the difference.

    autism can be diagnosed even when you don’t have a lot of the outward signs. like your inner experience of the world could be autistic af and you just don’t really show it

        but if i think about it, it’s probably how you process stimuli, how you see the world, if you categorize it in certain ways, all that and much more that idk about

          I see, that sounds like the kind of a thing that you’d probably have to go through with a professional :/
