DAE struggle with the identity of being on the spectrum?
(sh.itjust.works)
For more than two decades I grew up "normal." By those standards, I have been very lazy and weird. I grew very depressed. It was not quick or easy, but I integrated my diagnosis with my personal history and it fits very well. Presently, it is much easier for me now to be kind to myself. I can seek accommodations without feeling like an imposter. I think it's great that you reached out about this topic. I hope you find what you need.
