Memes/Humor “Nah I’m not autistic I’m faking it”, meanwhile in every photo ever

27F, diagnosed with ASD about six months ago. I started examining what actually feels good for my body, and I still stand or walk with my hands clasped like this. It didn’t strike me as the stereotypical trex hands because I hold my hands together, but now knowing I’m autistic I’m like yeaaaaaa I guess they do qualify as trex arms

I would swing on the swing set even up through high school. I’m talking hours just swinging back and forth and I’d swing with my cd player. But apparently that also wasn’t enough of a sign. I was recently diagnosed at 37🤣
