Back when I was seeing a therapist, she told me that she thought I was autistic. I've never been diagnosed formally, but my sister has and we are pretty certain my dad is too. I have thought about talking with my psych about it, but I am undecided because a) I don't see what good it would do, and b) I worry it would make me feel even more like damaged goods than I already am. I've researched autism-- because that is what I do, research things when I am trying to solve problems-- and I can definitely see some of the tendencies that are associated with autism in myself. I just am torn on what my next steps should be or if I should even take next steps. As far as I know, it's not like there's a cure for autism. Is it worth opening yet another bag of worms?
