Having undiagnosed autism and parents not believing in it. I fucking hated school
I was diagnosed a few months after school ended. Same year as well. Parent still refused to believe it.
I was diagnosed a decade after I graduated and was married. My wife suggested for me to go since she saw the signs.
Sounds like you have a caring wife, I'm happy to read this.
Yes indeed : 3
I got diagnosed at age 30. Literally nobody (except for the other autistics I know) believes it.
I grew up in a time when autism was diagnosable, but only if you were in the extreme end of the spectrum. I don't even know if Asperger's was a thing.
Many, many days of my adult life I've wondered if I'm on the (lighter) end of the spectrum. There's still at least a two year waiting period to find out. So many "clues" I can point to from my childhood, but they could also just be coincidences.
It was diagnosable.... But my parents didn't bother to get me diagnosed.. my brother is 100x worse than me and they still deny it.
