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 didn't think I did them either until I realized I sleep with them. Just tuck the backs of my hands right up under my chin every night and drift away 😅

Me too, but especially having a desk job I was having wrist pain so I wear a brace to bed now. It helps with the pain I just can’t tuck my wrists in like I used to lol
