Some great advice already! But I agree with you, you don't have to see it as a disability, like you said, it is simply a validation of the way you feel. There's nothing wrong with having a brain that's a little different! Always around here if you wanna talk about it 🙂

My son is an Aspie. Yeah, he's different. But that's about it. We've never seen it as a disability, having a name for the way his brain operates helped us understand him and address the things that were challenging to him, but it wasn't a sentence or anything.

Today's his 29th birthday. He is in grad school in the field of his choice and in a long term relationship. He's doing what he wants with his life.

Meanwhile, do escapist thing when possible (such as binge watching a TV show), it helps with things like this 🙂
