@CybrBoy: Aspergers is an outdated term for ASD because it has roots in N@zi history and the definition didnt cover universal ASD traits. Just letting you knoe because it isnt a good word to use anymore.

1. What is your current special interest.

FNAF, MLP (Gen 4), and Markiplier (I am the #1 FNAF fan in the world, no one likes FNAf more than me, its physically biologically philosophically, scientifically impossible so dont spread misinformation because I am the biggest FNAF fan. Its been my spin since the first trailers in 2014 so its been nearly a decade. Im also #1 markiplier fan sorry I just cant be beat)

2.Are you diagnosed? If so when did you get diagnosed?

Yes, I got officially diagnosed earlier this year but ive known since i was very very young (I was extremely poor until a couple years ago, we could barely access standard healthcare let alone diagnosis)

3. Have you gone to therapy for autism?

No and I think i would feel humiliated if i was.

4. What is your name, age, pronouns and gender

My name is Lance, im 16, I use He/Him and it/its (when asked I just say he/him cuz i dont feel like having that whole convo about neos), my gender is somewhat complex but I am a trans-male above all else. i am on testosterone :333

5. How do you deal with meltdowns?

I dont really know but i sob quietly and rock until I feel better

6. Or when did you find out?

I got diagnosed just this year in Jan or Feb but Ive known since I was very young because i never could connect with people around me, and growing up the cute childish unawareness never faded so it went from being cute to ruining my social life and confidence. I actually asked my mom in fifth grade if I was autistic and she said i don't know, but looking back we both knew for a long time.

1. What is your current special interest.

Currently just music, my ocs, vrchat and I guess kinda pride stuff? (if you can call that a hyperfixation am not sure)

2.Are you diagnosed? If so when did you get diagnosed?

I am diagnosed, I think I was around 8-10 when they got me evaluated and stuff (but my parents could tell for a while that i was)

3. Have you gone to therapy for autism?

I don't remember but I know my mother was offered to put me in a program that would "help with my autism". it wouldn't, it would have just taught me how to be neurotypical, which you can't really do. Either way thankfully she didn't put me in it

4. What is your name, age, pronouns and gender

My name is Indigo, I'm 18, he/they, and a demiboy

5. How do you deal with meltdowns?

I'm not really sure, I guess its been a while since I've had one that was bad enough for me to actually go out of my way to deal with?

6. Or when did you find out?

I never really knew it until I think maybe a year or two after I was diagnosed, but I remember back then for some reason all my mom told me that Autism was is just something that makes it so you don't understand jokes or sarcasm, but I believe when I was 13-14 I looked it up and figured out what it actually was. It kinda hurt to know it was a lot of the reason people seemed to dislike me but at the same time I'm kinda glad I only thought it was a sarcasm thing cause otherwise I'd probably have ended up doing bad stuff to people and blaming it on my autism, which I'm very glad I don't do
