And there is nothing wrong with you at all. I do think it is a shame that we get treated like dirt because we think differently and don't fit neatly into a box. I'm sorry that people don't get it and make you feel bad....those people are the worst. I think that's the worst about being on the spectrum is NTs thinking we are odd, stupid or just nuts because we think differently and see the world differently. There is nothing wrong with it, if we all thought the same, the world would be boring and dull. And don't be afraid to be proud to be on the spectrum. It's like you said, it's part of who you are...own it,that's one thing no one can take away from you.
