Telling people I am autistic

Is it wrong that I enjoy telling people I am autistic ? There is a small part of me that likes the special attention. 

I have had to tell both my dentist and my doctor as I have had meltdowns in both places. (They should really read their notes and know) My N A S therapist is going to write to them. 

I am proud of my new identity (got diagnosed at 40 in March this year) I love that it explains my behaviour and I seem to have developed an autism radar in spotting others with it. 

Sorry this group coherent thread, just wondered if anyone else felt them same.
