    I just took the AQ-10, and it says I’m am definitely allistic. I have been cured using the unsolicited allistic and altruistic advice of trying harder and not faking it anymore as an excuse. Thank you to everyone that told me why I was being autistic. I hope everyone here can find the strength to try harder and not fake it anymore as an excuse so that you could be normal and responsible for the emotions of the people that found your authenticity threatening or insulting. /s

    jk, I scored an 8, so still pretty me 🤪

      Dude, I lost my job and ran out of contacts at the same time. Living with my parents while I get back on my feet, and they fucking accused me of faking not being able to see without my contacts.

      After a month, a friend offered to buy me some contacts, and my mom’s response was to get all defensive and say she would have helped, she didn’t want to “enable me”.

      I’ve worn glasses and contacts for two decades… Some people are just plain stupid and so far up their own asses, that they’ll think and say anything as long as it lets them tell themselves they’re not wrong.

            I’m upset because my autism therapist pointed out that some of the behaviors of some people I thought were cool were actually them testing my autism as if I was faking it, and then getting upset with and punishing me for faking it.
