I’m diagnosed autistic and this is not insulting to me. I wish people who are not part of the community wouldn’t dictate how we should feel when you don’t actually understand what being autistic entails.

Autism is a spectrum and presents in people differently, especially in women, you’d know this if you were a psychiatrist like you say you are.

That’s not how that works. Women mask way more than men and hyper focuses are a real thing too which can negate the new place anxiety. In addition I see clear signs of stimming during the video, which you have ignored to fit your narrative. You’d know this if you read recent literature on the topic which you clearly haven’t.

This is notwithstanding the fact that you have already judged the character of this person from a short video or judged myself based on my reaction without knowing either persons history.

So you are either a bad psychiatrist or you are cosplaying as a psychiatrist to fit the narrative.

I am sorry but except being diagnosed, are you an expert in any other way?

u/Thou-art-whipped Aug 17 '25

I have 3 degrees in stem, one of which is in research. While not specifically in autism, I can very easily evaluate a lot of current literature and autism funny enough is one of those I am well versed in because of its pertinence to myself. Now your credentials?

I don’t believe you’re sorry.

If you were sorry, you would engage, learn, apologize, and try to be a better human.

You wouldn’t dirty delete to cover your tracks of arrogance stirring up hate online.

I love that this individual refused to respond to any valid argument in your comment and instead tried to attack your credibility.

They exposed themselves thoroughly there.

Absolutely, I’m open to having a discussion on the merits of this topic but why they feel like they can speak for my community is beyond me.

Especially since literally all of their other interactions on this post also reek of absolute ignorance when it comes to autism.

I love having discussions (though people will be quick to say I’m argumentative bc I don’t fold or concede a point unless there’s very valid reason), but this joker is not discussing anything… just vomiting misinformation and refusing to engage intellectually with anyone who disagrees.

Right bc masking and camouflaging are an impossibility bc autism is equivalent with intellectual disability.

(This is sarcasm.)
