How many of you on this site are autistic?

I’m not calling anyone out, I’m just genuinely curious.

I’ve seen that quite a number of MLP fans are autistic. Everyone in this thread is and if what people are saying is true, even the guy harassing the writers over Season 9 is autistic.

As for me:

@Megalobronia
Aspergers here, related to Autistic but not as servere as pure autistics.

Yo.

Here 🙋🏽‍♀️

Diagnosed with ADHD since 2007 according to my psychiatrists but I keep denying it for many years.

I am on the spectrum myself.

@Megalobronia

On the spectrum, and proud to be! I dont think id be half the person I am now without it.

Welcome to Derpibooru! (Even though you’ve been here for three days already)

@Megalobronia
Thanks! to be fair, I have been using the site for a while, but i finally decided to make an account.

Yeah, I’m on the spectrum. Not something I particularly flaunt, but I’m on it.

That would be me as well, although my autism is in the low-functioning level and idk if it’s considered Autism Spectrum Disorder or ASD.

Yep! Not really sure how to feel about it, though.

Yee. I have Asperger’s, but I hate the fact that my state (KY) doesn’t officially recognize it as a mental disorder.

Me.

You know what’s a myth?

“High functioning autistic”

There are times I hate myself for having the dreaded A. It doesn’t feel good being a defective product. If there is a way to “debug” my mental software. I would seek to it.
Why was I produced this way?

But try to get along best I could. Find ways to work with my handicap

Sadly, that’s something we can’t change about ourselves.

Some of us hate it, some of us embrace it.

I’m in the middle; I don’t dislike being autistic, but I’m not exactly crazy about it either.

@Megalobronia
It’s not a badge of honour. But we try are damnest to not let it hold us back. Nor use it as a shield(which I veheremntly detest)

While there are individuals who do deserve to be called out for their shit. I don’t think it’s fair to the majority of autists to bear the prejudice and hate just because.
