im pretty sure im autistic, or at least neurodivergent in some way. i think getting tested would give me some peace of mind and validation, but it's not extreme to where i would need extra help. so i dont really need to be diagnosed if itll just make my life harder. i heard that if diagnosed, you have to take your driving test every year which sounds like such a hassle. are there any other downsides of a diagnosis i should know about? specifically for the us / california. getting a diagnosis would feel validating but maybe its not worth pursuing for me.
thats not what it says at all (the white heterosexual christian male part), but i do agree that they shouldnt get rid of it. i would be very surprised if my rights were taken away.
on an unrelated note, part of why i liked jerboa more than reddit was that it wasnt a liberal echo chamber too. but after coming back after a few month hiatus, i see its become the same way.
