I mentioned on my first comment of this discussion that self-diagnosis is good for a person to get interested in the subject and learn more about which could eventually lead to an official diagnosis.

I guess I am wrong. There are no rules, you can decide you are autistic for whatever trait you identify. Because if you don't function as a perfect and unrealistic human being it's probably because you have a disability. I doesn't matter how stupid I think it is, that seems to be the consensus.

I know I'm being passive aggressive but it really bothers me that some common flaws or limitations can simply fit some form of autism because is wrong to say it isn't. For example, socializing is a skill, it sure comes naturally for some people but that doesn't mean it isn't something you can't learn and improve (I think I only started feeling more confident about my social abilities a few years ago, and I'm 33). I don't think it's healthy for people, especially when young, to diagnose themselves with some kind of limitation that would impair development. Feeling discomfort is also a part of life and sometimes we can't avoid it, we might even need it to become better and mature human beings.

People who claim they are always functional and that nothing bothers or distract them are liers. You know, that hustle culture bullshit. But there are some things to be learned from them too, the courage to face discomfort and work on limitations, balance is everything.

But apparently my opinion doesn't matter because I'm simply wrong to think self-diagnosing isn't harmless and a slippery slope for justifying very normal and common individual limitations.

I dare you to find other source to support this belief outside this video or this CONTENT CREATOR.

yeah, I do get agressive when I see a person using silly arguments based on feelings rather than facts. Anyways, go on live your happy self-diagnosed life, when someone laugh at you or you make someone really angry in real life I want you to remember this mean internet guy.

Let's make deal, I look up whatever that is and you go study about autism spectrum desorder outside shallow social media posts, how does that sound?

Were you against masks or against social distancing during covid? You sound like the kind of person who would be into that kind of stuff.

Thanks, I hope you get banned for supporting disinformation.

If it's not valid for legal or health matters how is that valid? Now you are just playing with the meaning of the word.

Self-diagnosing yourself with autism just because of some unusual behaviors is disrespectful to people who really struggle with the condition.

If you don't need treatments or special needs why would you feel the need to be in the same category with people who suffer severe impairment in socialization and everyday activities?

Find something else to define your own uniqueness, that's a serious subject.
