Sorta targeted but not really since I don't want drama, but just a reminder that not everybody has the privilege to get diagnosed with learning disabilities or developing mental illnesses early on in life. I can't believe I have to say this. EVERYONE SHOWS SYMPTOMS DIFFERENTLY. Some people mask better than others, so they don't get diagnosed until well into their teens/adulthood. OR there's things like parents denying the existence of such things or financial issues. I have a lot of undiagnosed issues. Why? I LACK MONEY. I do MONTHS AND EVEN YEARS OF CREDITABLE RESEARCH FROM GOVERNMENT AND MEDICAL WEBSITES before even THINKING I'm something and the TRUE fakers are ones who watched 1 TikTok and claim they're autistic now or whatever. Saying someone's a faker because they're undiagnosed at that current moment is just as ableist as neurotypicals telling you that you're not autistic because you don't act like their autistic cousin. Period. Not everyone is as lucky as YOU buddy.
