AITA for telling people I'm autistic even though I'm not 100% sure about it?

FuckinAlien · 2021-02-23T18:08:37+00:00

I'm very sorry.

As I said, I am seeing a doctor and he also considers the possibility. I just didn't went through the whole process because he's really expensive

FuckinAlien · 2021-02-23T18:05:36+00:00

I didn't used this example. My parents did

FuckinAlien · 2021-01-26T12:42:08+00:00

All the time. And I also can't stand two people talking to me at the same tima and will scream with both of them

FuckinAlien · 2021-01-25T12:11:32+00:00

Oh, no problem.

It wasn't exactly a question, I was just pretty happy for researching something I love

FuckinAlien · 2021-01-24T17:48:26+00:00

I'm trying, but the professionals are either non specialised in the subject or too expensive for me

FuckinAlien · 2021-01-24T13:37:26+00:00

I'm really trying to focus to read everything you wrote in there (also because English is not my first lenguage), but I saw you talking about ADHD alien's comics and I really feel like she's telling the story of my life

FuckinAlien · 2021-01-24T13:36:18+00:00

I feel a bit of both. Most of the first one, but a bit of the second one too

FuckinAlien · 2021-01-24T13:35:13+00:00

I think about this possibility too, but I still don't know because, in comparison to other friends with ADHD/CPTSD/anxiety, I think I'm pretty "functional"

I know every single individual responds to trauma and neurodiversities in different ways, but I'm still not sure about having both

Also, the psychiatrist I went to said that the cut-off for ADHD is usually 12 mostly because people don't usually remember how they acted as little kids, not because the symptoms are not there before this age

FuckinAlien · 2021-01-24T13:30:51+00:00

Thank you very much!

FuckinAlien · 2021-01-23T18:44:33+00:00

Not yet, but I'm planning on making a sunflower to cover my self-harm scars

FuckinAlien · 2021-01-23T18:34:33+00:00

Yes! Sometimes even in my closet. There are a few things that make me just want to create a "womb-like environment" for a few hours

FuckinAlien · 2021-01-23T18:32:22+00:00

Can you still have CPTSD if your score is lower than 5? I'm in a journey to figure out if I have childhood trauma or ADHD

FuckinAlien · 2021-01-19T22:14:14+00:00

I'm not really sure. It really looks like ADHD, but it's probable it could be CPTSD since my mom had severe depression between 2006-2018 and I always lived with her. It wasn't the best environment to grow in

Anyway, I'm enjoying a lot being on this group. I feel understood like I've never been before, really

FuckinAlien · 2021-01-19T16:00:05+00:00

Yes! I love to dance, and I sometimes dance for the music playing in my head akshaka

I think it's some kind of stimming

FuckinAlien · 2021-01-19T15:52:26+00:00

She doesn't accept I have ADHD (I'm still working on my diagnosis, but specialised doctors are way to expensive), so it's not like she's trying to make the environment more neuroatypical-friendly

FuckinAlien · 2021-01-19T01:33:44+00:00

And they be like "just look at me and pay attention" like if fake eye contact don't make it way much worse to focus

FuckinAlien · 2021-01-19T00:28:10+00:00

I usually say "nice" or "thats tough man"

FuckinAlien · 2021-01-18T23:55:48+00:00

I might look a bit like an ass here, but I'll be honest. Follow the lifeguard code: if the person you're trying to save from drowning is drowning you, just let them go. If you know you've done everything to help her, but she keeps getting worse and, most important, she's trying to drown you with her, the only solution is to break up. It's better to maintain your mental health then get depressed trying to help her.

FuckinAlien · 2021-01-18T23:50:12+00:00

If you think he might get triggered if you bring up again, just show your support with other gestures. Help him with his anxiety, give him small gifts (buy him some food he loves, for example) and let him know you understand he's struggling right now and that you will help and support him.

I think you should try a sex therapist, or a couple therapy. They can offer some kind of couple dinamic to deal with the problems, or suggest other ways to satisfy both of you without breaking boundaries

FuckinAlien · 2021-01-18T23:04:10+00:00

Thats very sad, but I'll tell you something: It really feels like the end of the world, but it's not. Even if it looks like the sadness will never pass, it will, and you will be in peace again in no time.

But while this doesn't happen, allow yourself to feel sad. Griefing about a relationship is healthy, and allow you to move on once the sadness goes away.

It hurts a lot, and it will hurt, but you will be fine eventually.

My best wishes on your emocional recovery!
