so i've suspected for a long time now that i might be a little bit autistic, but at the same time, i don't seem to experience all the things my autistic friends do quite as intensely, and i know there's a lot of overlapping traits with ADHD and anxiety, which are boxes i already have checked with confidence. i hadn't brought it up with my therapist until recently bc i had bigger fish to fry
i finally got evaluated with my therapist today and the answer is basically what i expected: i've kinda just got one foot in and one foot out. i don't meet the current diagnostic criteria (which my therapist admits are a bit flawed anyway) but i'm like, halfway there. it's like i started on being autistic but i got distracted, which is the most Me possible thing to be and, frankly, extremely funny to me
