ohhhhh man. i started therapy for the first time last year, and one of my initial reasons was to see if I was autistic and to figure things out. on my first meeting with them, they felt pretty confident that I was autistic lol

anyways, they recommended me that book, and yeah, it's very good and I also resonated with it a lot. it's kinda eye opening.

that's awesome they recommended that book! i tried to see a doctor recently and they told me to buy a self help book about controlling myself like i'm an unruly monkey-goblin. i like this book better

ahhh that sucks. therapists and doctors can really suck sometimes unfortunately. i had a lot of luck searching for queer & polyamorous friendly therapists and found a really cool person who's both transmasc non-binary and autistic, much like the author of the book! we often see eye to eye in our worldview, which I think helps a lot in my case.
