Hi everyone, I'm new here. I joined and am working on a diagnosis because:
-After getting Yet Another Job Performance Issue even after switching to a separate job, I did a TON of self-reflecting and decided that, while it's not all my fault, my inability to pick up unspoken social rules and gather all the resources I actually need to do my job well is inhibiting me.
-I've probably stepped on enough toes where now I'm getting called incompetent, and after really sitting down and figuring out what's going on, I'm realizing that I'm a LOT smarter than I thought in the last 30 years of my life.
-I've been reading blogs written by autistic women and practically relating to each point even though I bring this up to family and they keep denying this.
