Anyone here autistic or has aspergers?

[Sauce and Footwork]

sister and 7 year old son have autism. 2 people way cooler and smarter than a lot of us regular folk. Sister just got diagnosed as an adult and very happy for her to finally get that information. My son knows he has autism and he said it makes things difficult but he feels he is smarter than everyone else anyway so it will be fine “. My son is such a lovable a$$hole towards me lol. I got tested but I’m not on the spectrum. Didn’t believe I was anyway, but given my sister and son got it, me and wife got tested anyway

Yo... i have that shyt frfr. Diagnosed and everything as an adult though. I never noticed something was off with me until during the first months of covid 19. The thing is i was vaping a whole lot of weed until recently where ive been sober for almost three months. I thought the weed made the symptoms more worse. However, i realize that shyt is the same regardless. i honestly dont want to vape weed like that anymore as a coping tool of having that shyt. The thing that bothers me is having to look at the past and realize how things may have been the way they were for me because i had it. It makes perfect sense. Me not being able to understand others, socialize properly and a lot of other shyt going from childhood, teenage years, young adult, adulthood and etc. Still trying to make sense or find a purpose accepting that im not normal.. not saying im never going to vape weed again. Just not at this moment. I need a break and a year or two of soberity.

Its not what its cracked up to be. shyt is really a pain in the ass to be honest. The thing that bothers me is that i think other people know i have that shyt without me having to say it. speaking about my offline life now. Truth be told, i get irritated lurking on reddit and seeing the aspergers subreddit. Some of those folks are living lives better than me and theyre trying to make their shyt out to be where im at. Im like i honestly do think certain factors do play into that shyt in terms of how its treated. If youre a black man with that shyt, life is hard. We exist but i find myself noticing how we are like underrepresented or hidden where its like no one is speaking for us.

Gifted but that actually has a twang of autism in itself. Not ashamed by it by any means, because its better to tell testimony to give heads hope in having such a condition, versus lying to self. Hell, my son has the traits as well, its just a gift and a curse. The curse is the bad stigma behind it, but the gift knowing that you can function in society and managed to smile at the beauty of life.
