For the past several weeks, I’ve tried to write the story of how I went from a self-diagnosed person with autism to one formally diagnosed countless times. Truth be told, I keep running into various mental blocks but if you are reading this, hey we must have got there to some degree…

I want to preface by acknowledging that I am aware self diagnosis (of any kind) is frowned upon. I don’t disagree that it’s potentially dangerous and/or invalid in a lot of situations. That being said, I’m self diagnosing myself anyway…
