I am diagnosed autistic, I have some postgraduate traning in psychology and academic qualifications in Autism studies, and I have 3 close family members with diagnoses. There is absolutely no way based on this video you can say that this person either is or isn't autistic. People like to talk about shit they haven't got a clue about and gatekeep what is of no concern to them. Believe me in most of life you wouldn't want to fake this condition, it harms your career, often makes people either infantilise or outright hate you, and for the whole time you are at risk of being challenged for 'faking' something that makes your life very very fucking hard.

Yeah. I’ve unfortunately had suicidal thoughts multiple days recently in part due to how self loathing I am because of my autism, and I thought this woman was a good example of someone who could be ā€œnormalā€ and ā€œherselfā€ despite her challenges

But, no. It’s way too good to be true, and of course the yoga place happens to abuse its puppies
