Anyone knows any provider able to perform the ABA on adults? I have seen plenty of centres for children, but none for an adult.
The patient would be me. Apparently, ABA is the only therapy that teaches how to "mask" more and better. Since I am one of the few people here with a real job, I am required to "mask" in my life. It's a survival need.

I would suggest an acting coach - after all that is what masking is - acting.
An acting coach has no experience in dealing with autistic people. Oh, why I even bother answering to you?

Oh come on JD, there are going to be some who have experience of this. We make up around 1-3% of the population so that implies for every hundred people they have coached, they will have had at least one autist.
Have you even tried looking? Don't knock it until you have please.
please, just shut up
