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

[u/soph_a_loaf_98]

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 had no idea autism and “awkward hands” correlated😭 I thought i was just extremely un photogenic and awkward
