A while ago, I shared this post and I learned that I’m not the only one who has an uncommon autism presentation (low empathy, no stimming/special interests, etc.). Those who related, speculated about what it might be, but we couldn’t find an answer. Others kindly (/s) told me to f*** off to r/ASPD or r/NPD.

The plot twist: I’m now being referred for personality disorder assessment. So, if you related to my set of characteristics and you’re wondering what’s going on, at least consider that it might possibly be a (comorbid) PD.

I am really not eager for the assessment and every day I consider not going through with it. But this might be the answer I was looking for, and it might be for some other people, as well.

tl;dr: if you related to this post, just know that I’m getting screened for personality disorders. Do with that information what you will.
