Are we over thinking our reactions behaviours ect. after masking for so long? I dont think i thought about my behaviour ect. so much before i discovered that i was autistic. I know that i am not masking as much as i was, and it feels good. My contact with people is limited from choice, and im ok with that. I think that its realising i dont have to be with people, if i dont want to be.
You have just ‘mirrored’ my behaviour, I am more aware and sensitive to most things. I am not prepared to hide my feelings and needs anymore. My autistic behaviour is me.

Exactly! That’s unmasking!
