I did this a few years back and now with more understanding, I'm redoing it :p And now with an official diagnosis lol
A few of these may also be symptoms of other disorders I have (Ex. I find it hard to cope with change is what I believe to be part of "I don't want to mess up and need explicit, clear rules" from my anxiety disorder) I'm not currently friends with someone that is autistic/I fully believe to be autistic (I only have one friend as of now) but I have been friends with other people who have mental issues/autism/even ADHD before academically gifted and creatively gifted here :3 too bad a lot of us wouldn't be able to survive in the current workforce. If only A HIGHER POWER WOULD ACTUALLY HELP. I don't necessarily like routine, I just need to know what's happening, so I expect it at the very least (I don't know how to conserve mental energy yet :<)
