I didn’t really care when I got my diagnosis. It was what it was, and I lived with it. I did a huge autism workbook with a family friend. It didn’t really matter. But recently I’ve become aware of how ashamed I am. I always feel like the child nobody ever wanted to have. The sob story on Britain’s got talent. The problem child.
And I don’t know how to accept it when it’s all in media. I don’t know how to accept it while people still say I’m sorry to my mum if she says something.
Has anyone else experienced this?

Hi
thank you for your comment, my notifications went to spam so I didn’t see any replies
I choose some things around my room for usernames, I had some vinyls and a big jar of shells and I never noticed the sand!
My mum would absolutely never say that, it’s internalised shame
It’s called autism and what it means to me, it’s created for people who have been newly diagnosed about the different aspects of autism and what they mean personally to you
I will, now my notifications don’t go to spam I’ll stay on more and fill out some details.
