sorry if in wrong section - does anyone else feel this way?

Lydia

I kind of feel like I am neither NT nor Aspie. I have a diagnosis, but not everything seems to fit. I keep wondering if they got it wrong. But then, i don't feel NT either??? Sorry if this makes no sense.

  • I think its worth noting that while a person does not become Neurologically Typical (you cant re-write the way your brain is wired) you very much can develop compenstory methods and coping strategies that result in an increase in social and general functionality that might lead you to feel more NT but that should fill you with a sense of accomplishment that you have reached a sustainably stable condition. It should not make you feel like an imposter to have had sucess overcoming difficulty.
