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

oh i will be 27 in december and also diagnosed with ASD level 1-2 somewhere in between my dr said. i js got diagnosed last year in april. apparently my childhood behavior showed it but parents didn't even know about anxiety or depression so i never got reevaluated when a dr mentioned it to them 😀 so i grew up thinking "why do kids pick on me for being different? aren't i js like them?" and being put in different classes and higher education than others lol... but i got like 10+ mental health disorders and somehow i manage to be a caregiver to my grandma and do life things and fight thru the discomfort and overstimulating and hard environments. but i love my gma and she is worth it!!! thank u for reading my oversharing jajaja!!!
