I’m not even autistic
The ONLY reason she thought I was autistic is because I didn’t like to be hugged. That was the only “symptom” I showed. And the only reason I didn’t like hugs or physical contact is because my dad repeatedly would drunkenly hit me and throw me around and hurt me.
I’m so sorry. I know how lucky I am. I wish the world was kind enough to let everyone start when I did or younger.
