If an ASD cure was made would you use it?

As the title says.

Yes I would!!! I just want to be normal and accepted in the world. Being ASD is tiring and not a lot of fun half the time. My time at school was awful from the start to end because I was singled out for being different, no one wanted to know me because of that difference and it's kind of like it in adulthood as well. I would give anything to change the way I am.

  • No. Being autistic is who I am, it is part of me and I wouldn’t give that up. Also we live in a society where those who are different are often ostracized  and are made to feel that they are the ones that must change. I refuse to be part of this mentality. However I do at times wish things could be easier and being autistic does create so many challenges and barriers- but a lot of these are because society is not accommodating and not made for people who are different. I hope things will eventually change though my hopes are not high. 

  • I totally agree Ann.
