This topic brings back bad memories of when I overheard two occupational therapists saying that I appeared to have Asperger's syndrome because of my inability to look at people in the eye. As a result, my mind reacted by causing me to have a stiff neck. That was irrational, but it happened.
Even though I was tolerant of "special" people, I always thought of special needs as something that happened to others, and I was traumatized by realizing I appeared to be an Aspie even though rumors about me having special needs had been floating around ever since second grade.
Also, because of this, I ended up with a fear of therapy. File this under "Seemingly trivial things that have traumatized you."
