>>333888I'm a diagnosed autistic woman.
For the most part I dont think my life is that special or diferent from other women, and if it is I just simply don't notice the differences. I was diagnosed earlier than other girls because everyone says that most women get diagnosed until they're adults due to "masking"?
I was diagnosed with Asperger at the age of 8 but I was never told until I became an adult.
For the most part I don't think I ever felt any diferent from other people, and if I am I probably never really noticed or I was never told I was diferent in any significant way.
To this day I'm not really sure what my "autistic traits" are, I guess in an introverted person that likes to repeat her routine every day and be a little sensitive to bright lights and loud noises, but aren't some normal people / neurotypicals like that too? How can someone even measure that?
