I don't know if it was "mistaken" for other conditions because I do have the other conditions co-morbidly. I think it was just missed altogether. My other conditions are GAD, MDD, CPTSD, ADHD, and a slew of other things. I also had a stroke prior to my ASD diagnosis and the therapists thought I was pretty weird, but they never mentioned possible autism.
Do you make your bed every day?
