Yup. The statistics are currently very dismal. Long story short they prove that society is not doing its job to support and include people on the spectrum.

Thought I needed emergency antibiotics/surgery. Went to the dentist and he just told me to get some specia... |

From my own similar experiences I have learned this much: there are many amazing professionals out there that really want to help you. However, there are many who still do not look beyond the outdated stereotypical idea of autism. In those cases, trust your own judgement. They don't know what goes o... |

Hello there. I am a twenty-two-year old female from the USA. I am currently self-diagnosed but looking to seriously pursue a diagnosis/supports. I have a few friends now but I feel as if I need to mask/keep important details about my life hidden from most of them except for a few. I really value ope... |

I would say definitely not schizophrenia, as that is more centered around delusions/hallucinations. Paranoia can be a part of it, but not a standalone trait.

I am 100% certain that you are not stupid!! I understand though, because people often made me feel stupid.
