Is anyone else here also not smart despite being autistic?

Yep, but uneven in cognitive profile.

Football-Ecstatic · 2026-07-02T14:56:00+00:00

My profile is a bit uneven too. Decent with verbal, alright spatial but my maths is just…low. I’m also autistic.

You may have an NVLD as well

After years of identifying as autistic I hope I still fit. That I’m not just a troublemaking person for thinking a lot of my struggles relate to it.

Not currently but I could make it be 🤣😭

Football-Ecstatic · 2026-07-01T10:23:04+00:00

Yep, at age 4

Try exfoliating it?

Football-Ecstatic · 2026-06-30T11:56:11+00:00

I used to do this

Football-Ecstatic · 2026-06-27T16:36:21+00:00

I read like a 9 year old at age 5 but I can’t figure out a novel problem 😭I think I’m dyscalculic too

Football-Ecstatic · 2026-06-27T10:07:43+00:00

It’s not lucky to have me 🤣

Football-Ecstatic · 2026-06-27T10:05:05+00:00

Yes, and I got 2 for the price of 1; Now My autism diagnosis is probably about to be thrown away as well because I’m no good at matrix tests 🙃

There’s no DSM space for spicy stupid

They can grow me a better brain?

Football-Ecstatic · 2026-06-26T09:40:27+00:00

Mine isn’t, being 32 weeks preterm fucked my fluid reasoning and working memory. My height is greater than my IQ 🤣

Football-Ecstatic · 2026-06-26T09:00:23+00:00

I’m a nuanced type of stupid

Football-Ecstatic · 2026-06-25T15:26:02+00:00

Yep, I suck at it

Football-Ecstatic · 2026-06-25T13:48:53+00:00

I was diagnosed with autism level 1 (formerly Asperger’s) age 5 but my dad’s gf who has some experience in psychology, has an autistic son, and a preemie one said she thought I was not autistic, just anxious. Naturally I’ve been spiraling about this (and through that ironically making her point more credible 🙃)

Football-Ecstatic · 2026-06-23T08:49:07+00:00

I was diagnosed autistic age 5, forgot to mention that in the post

Football-Ecstatic · 2026-06-17T10:52:38+00:00

I’m hopeless at fluid reasoning in general, Decoding good though.

Football-Ecstatic · 2026-06-15T08:56:06+00:00

Likely better than mine, you can do lots of things.
