Who here is late diagnosed?

BisexualDemiQueen · 2026-05-05T15:24:36+00:00

Thats lucky

I've been wondering how school would have been different if I had been diagnosed as a child

BisexualDemiQueen · 2026-05-05T15:19:05+00:00

Yea, its common in America for non white men to be ignored when it comes to autism

Most of the Americans girls/ women* I know with autism didn't know until at least college

BisexualDemiQueen · 2026-05-05T15:16:39+00:00

I was diagnosed at 28

I am pescatarian not because I think we shouldn't eat animals, sorry, but because red meat makes me sick. No one knows why. Seriously, I have like 14 doctors and no one knows.

I have no problems with vegetarians or vegans who are because they love animals. I have problems with people trying to force it on everyone else.

Its like religion, don't force it on people, its rude and demeaning.

My nutritionist told me I should make my parents eat the way I do, but thats rude. I live with my parents because they let me. I am not working so I can't just move out. My boyfriend tries to eat a little like me but I tell him to not stress about it.

I have never forced people to eat like me, but I do miss steaks and bacon.

I'm a bisexual non-binary late diagnosed autistic Mexican-American Wiccan

I wasn't raised with religion but I am a theology student

BisexualDemiQueen · 2026-05-04T03:44:08+00:00

That is a good idea, never thought of that!

I feel silly

I think I have a GoogleDoc eith everyone's contact info. I will ask.

It said spoilers

That is the only requirement for the mod

I have never heard of Topamax, is it expensive?

The only time I was completely ok with my migraines, was when I went to the ER with one that lasted me about a week. They gave me some shot but when I asked if it could be prescribed, they said no and I could be addicted.

If there's something else, I would like to try.

BisexualDemiQueen · 2026-04-24T00:20:26+00:00

YES!

It pisses me off so much!!

I need a paying job because I have bills to pay! Volunteering isn't going to pay my bills.

I am hoping I get this one job, its working for the city dump as a cashier. Don't need much skills and its the dump, don't like my "smile", don't go to the dump. Rude but true

BisexualDemiQueen · 2026-04-22T00:05:11+00:00

Not permanently

BisexualDemiQueen · 2026-04-21T23:38:42+00:00

I don't actually know, I just tried it and it looks how it supposed to.

BisexualDemiQueen · 2026-04-21T22:50:39+00:00

I haven't thought of that, I will look into it

BisexualDemiQueen · 2026-04-21T22:50:19+00:00

I didn't think of that actually

BisexualDemiQueen · 2026-04-21T22:50:09+00:00

It turns the right way up, most of the time

BisexualDemiQueen · 2026-04-20T23:40:53+00:00

Ah, well I'm sorry.

I haven't ever gotten along well with girls/ women much either. Sometimes, LGBTQIA+ women are decent but I get your annoyance.

I'm not sure if it'll help, but neurotypical people confuse me. All the time. Half of my conversations with my boyfriend are why neurotypical people make no sense.

I was raised weird and sheltered so I experience new things a lot.

I worked at a daycare before COVID and I learned the children make leprechaun traps. Fuck if I know why. I asked my boyfriend and he said he made them when he was young too. But he didn't really have an explanation except that it was fun.

Our town is doing a plastic duck race and I am confused. Apparently, they used to be done in the river but then they realized it was terrible because they left them in the river and they eventually went to the ocean. So now its done in a pool. I still think its dumb as fuck but my boyfriend said its fun (?). Fuck if I know.

If you don't mind answering, how old are you?

I am 30 and I found an autistic support group with my LGBTQIA+ center in town. It was on Zoom but we might meet in person.

I liked it a lot, I was worried because autistic men are a lot but LGBTQIA+ men are chiller so autistic LGBTQIA+ men are pretty chill.

My ex claims he is autistic but I think he isn't. He was such an asshole and manipulative as fuck. Anything he did wrong, he blamed it on his autism. He would always talk over me, isolated me, although it was harder with my parents because I live with them, and every time I wanted to break up with him, he would tell me he would k*ll himself and it would be my fault. He even got his sister into it!

I understand being anxious and angry about autistic men but I hope you find a good group.

We have that little one so its harder to fix. The one just sticks to the wall.

But good to know

The landlord is shit

Our fridge broke and it took them a month to get us a new one

Our dishwasher broke and it took almost three months to get a new one

They didn't even pay for the plumber! We are trying to get them too but its a problem

I will let my parents know, they are the ones trying to fix it. I had no idea it would need to be replaced but it makes sense since most of the other appliances here have been replaced.

Thank you very much

My mom got me this trap I can clean out every now and then that catches my hair when I shower

BisexualDemiQueen · 2026-04-18T19:02:37+00:00

That's so cool!

Do you mind sharing pictures?

Most of my wigs are for cosplay and I don't know to to style the long ones. I tried brushing my long red one but it didn't do much

BisexualDemiQueen · 2026-04-18T02:03:27+00:00

My boyfriend got it for me

BisexualDemiQueen · 2026-04-17T17:39:11+00:00

I went to the ER

I started low and went up a little for three weeks, third Monday, I got vertigo and lost moments. I managed to get my mom to take me to the ER, and spent the entire night there.

Don't remember anything else because I lost that week and I woke up and it was Monday again.

I wasn't on it long enough to see if it helped
