Being autistic when I do things I take a huge interest in the things I do and I've noticed that these things I usually become good at which is awesome. I'm a fast learner, is that to do with autism? Or maybe it's one of my quirks. Anywho....Some of the things I'm good at is
*art
*writing
*parenting - I hope lol
*poker - I'm not an addict promise
*reciting the alphabet backwards.
*cooking
*voice acting
Everything else I'm not really that good at.
I literally can’t think of anything.
There must be something! What about creating clever and thought provoking usernames?! Amongst many other examples of your autistic strengths and talents!
Completely agree!
You are so welcome! Good luck on your autistic discovery journey.
When you are ready of course, you may also be interested in the autistic experience education platform called Aucademy (which is absolutely brilliant!):

Ohh thanks so much for explaining, and for this link as well! Really do appreciate it. I was diagnosed recently and I am still learning a lot about autism and myself ally it's really nice learning more from more knowledgeable persons such as yourself. I wondered if it was autism. Amazing to know.
Cool, I thought you would agree!
By the way being a fast learner is because you are autistic. For example, I am a fast learner and autodidactic because I am monotropic (single attention tunnels and interest based nervous system), which is very common in our autistic community!
