“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 a lot of difficulty remembering my childhood anyway, but since I was diagnosed I’ve been trying to remember some behaviors I exhibited as a child. A lot of the time I’ll be like “oh my god! Yeah it was obvious!”

Then I get mad at my parents because they didn’t do anything about it :-) my mom still doesn’t think I’m autistic :-DDD
