To the person who thinks that they might be autistic. - a thread. /1
"But if I was autistic, surely it would've been noticed when I was a kid? So maybe I'm making this up."
So many autistic people aren't diagnosed until they are adults, if diagnosed at all. You would not be the first and you won't be the last. /3
People's understandings of autism tend to be based off of the media, which doesn't show every possible presentation of autism, or based off of someone they know, and all autistic people present differently. /4
Of course you don't. Although it may be harder to access more formal support, you can still access informal support groups, the #ActuallyAutistic twitter community, and get involved with autism charities such as @Autism. /8
There are two routes for this. The first is through the NHS. This would begin with you going to your GP and asking for a referral for an autism assessment. Due to some having a limited understanding of autism, I would be prepared. /11

They looked high.
They looked low.
They looked underneath every rock, behind every tree, into every bush.
And they found...NOTHING.
Those saying Mueller will file obstruction charges against Trump: laughable.
What documents did Trump tell the Mueller team it couldn't have? What witnesses were withheld and never interviewed?
THERE WEREN'T ANY.
Mueller got full 100% cooperation as the record will show.
