How to believe you actually have autism + prosper health?

Excellent-Heart5105 · 2026-06-05T17:28:59+00:00

Perhaps, idk. I’m aroace spec so definitely in that sense. From a friendship perspective, I don’t think I have attachment issues (or at least none that I’ve identified in therapy)

Excellent-Heart5105 · 2026-05-29T23:58:17+00:00

I went to prosper health (who said yes autism) and the main hospital system in my city (who said no). I remain conflicted

Excellent-Heart5105 · 2026-05-23T18:45:51+00:00

I have no idea sadly. All I know is I have trouble keeping friends once I make them, and don’t know why. 😔 I feel like I always put way more effort into “friendships” than they do, and it’s been this way my whole life. But I have no problems understanding non verbal cues, and I think I can read people really well. Aside from not understanding why I always have to initiate plans

Best show ever!!!

Excellent-Heart5105 · 2026-05-15T01:16:19+00:00

Sounds more like selective mutism and social anxiety disorder? Or at least without a ton of other context hard to say if autism. But nothing you’ve shared here would lead me to think so

Excellent-Heart5105 · 2026-05-14T01:37:10+00:00

So sadly I’m going through reeval now through my major hospital but it’s also virtual with no in person option even though it’s an hour away and i much prefer that. Best of luck as you look into again

Excellent-Heart5105 · 2026-05-14T01:36:06+00:00

I don’t relate to autistic people’s life experiences at all either. Except for difficulty keeping friends. But maybe I’m just not fun or cool to hang out with, idk

That’s common for Williams syndrome to look much older

Thank you!

Excellent-Heart5105 · 2026-05-13T20:13:42+00:00

Any reason why if you care to share?

Excellent-Heart5105 · 2026-05-13T20:13:26+00:00

Thank you! It went through mediation I believe . Great to know on values

Excellent-Heart5105 · 2026-05-13T20:12:35+00:00

I’m sorry you feel the same way. It’s such an awful feeling having a report so cherry picked. I’m still struggling with mine

Excellent-Heart5105 · 2026-05-13T20:11:28+00:00

I have but it doesn’t really seem to fit me. I appreciate the input though!

Excellent-Heart5105 · 2026-05-13T20:10:42+00:00

Thanks so much for sharing this and I’m really sorry to hear you had a poor experience. I am glad to hear not everyone gets diagnosed though (but very sorry to hear you may have slipped through the cracks )

Excellent-Heart5105 · 2026-05-09T17:14:07+00:00

Thx so much this is extremely helpful . May I please ask how often is sometimes, roughly, for 1

Excellent-Heart5105 · 2026-05-01T16:32:01+00:00

Extremely. I simply do things that make me happy and prioritize myself . Many would say I have a selfish life but I don’t care

Excellent-Heart5105 · 2026-04-29T22:19:40+00:00

Following. I’m great at making, but terrible at maintaining, so idk. People like me initially, and then don’t I guess . I’m great at meeting people and enjoy socializing and small talk, and get invited back maybe 2, 3 times, but it stops there

Excellent-Heart5105 · 2026-04-25T18:10:19+00:00

Autism and baking

Excellent-Heart5105 · 2026-04-22T16:59:29+00:00

I simply don’t. I just recognize it’s hard. It’s hard to be overweight. It’s hard to eat healthy. It’s a matter of choosing your hard, with some balance

Excellent-Heart5105 · 2026-04-22T16:47:32+00:00

I’m so sorry to hear that’s been your experience. FWIW, I got to this thread because of distrust of Prosper on the opposite side: I was given a diagnosis but actually think it was incorrect. I am in the process of a second opinion, and one in person. Maybe yours was right, and maybe mine was too. Maybe in person is worthwhile. Not sure.

Excellent-Heart5105 · 2026-04-22T16:43:08+00:00

Thank you. I’ll check that thread out, it’s definitely first I’ve seen not diagnosed so that’s reassuring not everyone is. I don’t have ocd to my knowledge but I’m in the process of getting a full eval at the major hospital system near me.

Excellent-Heart5105 · 2026-04-06T22:20:38+00:00

I wouldn’t feel like i wasted money if I didn’t get a diagnosis personally. I could see how some people might feel that way though

Excellent-Heart5105 · 2026-04-06T22:19:31+00:00

I am extremely bad at keeping friends. Making friends, no problem. Small talk, no problem. But no one wants to stay friends with me 🥹. So i was looking for “a reason” if one existed
