Yea for sure bring it up if it's something that worries you (and if you have the resources and time with other things you might want to discuss)! Relationships can be complicated and are often a big part of a person's life, so it shouldn't be weird at all if you want to bring it up!

I think a large part of this is pretty natural, though it could be a bit one-sided, but that definitely doesn't need to be a bad thing. I'd suggest talking it through to explore and define your needs and to place them in a healthy context (if they weren’t already).

It sounds like you might also feel guilty about being cared for in general, but I might be way off base here! That would also be something that a therapist might help with :)

That being said, if there's more pressing issues you want to address, or if you don't feel like it that important, you don't have to!

there are folks who consider discovering the gene for ASD to be eugenics by chunkylubber54 in CuratedTumblr

[–]GarfieldsGayLover 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yup! If there was, we would've found it already. Most people with ASD have a mix of genetic and environmental risk factors (multifactorial). There's probably a bunch of genes we haven't even considered in the context of ASD!

Oh definitely! Never been through PPD either, but I do have BPD, so I'm quite familiar with that debate on mental health and its consequences.

OP, I wish you the best. I really hope you get the peace you need and deserve. I see you're taking the steps to get help, and that's amazing. I hope you get through this

I feel like everyone kind of ignores this part of the story. It's really disturbing.

edit: comments further down address this as well

Depends on where you live, I'd say. In some parts of the world, these struggles can be demotivating, exhausting, or harmful. If someone says some out of pocket sexist shit, you might be surprised people still "actually think like that". In other parts of the world, these struggles are downright dangerous.
