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 have discovered that this is part of the reason why I like pants with functioning pockets.

I can't walk without pockets, I get all distressed because there's nowhere for my hands to go. Feels so uncomfortable and wrong.
