When I was just a couple of years old, I believe, I was diagnosed with dyspraxia, which is in the autistic spectrum. Moderate dyspraxia. I've had many troubles all throughout my life, and it was only months ago when I went on a self-discovery journey and discovered a lot more about what dyspraxia does. That's why I haven't posted here much lately. Now I know what could have caused my English skills to lately increase, but I also know why I've always been afraid of crowds, for example, or can't socialise.
I looked at the Wikipedia page on autism though, and I believe I may genuinely be autistic. I share almost all of the traits on the page. I can speak quite clearly now, but I was quite late developing it and had speech therapy when I was a kid. I talked to my mum about autism last night, and she told me she had been researching Asperger's Syndrome for a while, and believes I may have it. But I don't know... looking at the autism page, I still believe I may be autistic.
I hope to get assessed, but apparently the wait can be a year, so I'm prepared to pay whatever needed to get an assessment as soon as possible. So, what do you guys know about the autistic spectrum? As I type this, the noise around me is extremely distracting and I'm finding it hard to focus. If you have an autistic spectrum disorder, tell me about it.
