Does any other women have experiences being potentially high functioning autistic? I think I may be autistic but I’m honestly not sure… My families nickname for me is Wednesday Addams and i relate very heavily to her if that gives you any context clues.

Yes! I feel like in my family as well that i’m very high functioning and nobody in my family really believes in that stuff and i got tested for it with my psychiatrist and stuff and i’m sure it lowk runs in the family idk tho 😢

Same! When I was younger my parents would always joke about me being “miss specific” because I corrected them all the time and took me to a therapist when I was 8 bc I would bang my head on the walls when I got upset and had such a hard time making friends (among many other things) but when I mentioned to them recently I thought I might be autistic they were like “you’re being too hard on yourself” and that everything I felt was “normal”.. I’m diagnosed with adhd but haven’t been tested for

Oh, I’m sorry to hear that. I’m truly unsure if I’m autistic or not. I know I’m neurodivergent but I’ve always felt I was different.
