1. I have a lot of special interests that switch around a lot, but a constant one that I’ve had since I was really really little is cats. Not the musical, the animal. I know literally everything about cats. ask me about cats.

2. I’m not diagnosed yet, but I had a therapist who explained autism to me and why I probably have it, etc etc. She tried to tell my parents to get me diagnosed but they wouldn’t listen, so,, never got formally diagnosed. (yayyy ableist parents /sar)

3. No, except for that one therapist, and she wasn’t really specially trained or anything so I don’t think it counts.

4. I have a lot of names, but my current favorite is Valentino! I’m 13, my pronouns right now are they/he, and I’m genderqueer

5. I don’t have meltdowns very often, but when I do I try to find a quiet room, turn the lights off, and fight with my hands until I feel better,

6. Before That Therapist, I kind of hate to say this, but I found out through tumblr. I found the autistic community there, and the posts were a little too relatable. Like, “this explains my entire life” relatable. I talked to my therapist, and she agreed and tried to talk to my parents. Voila, autism. (That was in 5th grade)

FNAF! (also southpark-- )

Technically no, but everybody i've talked to (including doctors and my therapist) have said I show so many signs- (Parents wont let me get diagnosed )

No, though it would probably help me.

5. How do you deal with meltdowns?

I have two ways of dealing with them, one of them is negative though so- warning about that

negative way: throwing and or breaking things until I realize "oh, I broke something" but this rarely works cause then I get really sad

positive way: Hiding in a blanket, and cuddling with stuffed animals

6. Or when did you find out?

I kinda always knew there was something different about me, but once I learned what autism was, I felt that I knew myself a bit better then before (after realizing I show so many signs of autism)
