As an adult I got therapy. The first time a doctor suggested autism I was 30 and I scoffed. I am not antisocial. I don't lack empathy- on the contrary, I have so much empathy I make myself sick with worry. I don't lack emotions I have too many- so many they're overwhelming.

The media doesn't tell you what autism looks like- it gives you the image of the cold unfeeling savant- misunderstood. I am not a savant- I am me and I am so average and anxious it's honestly underwhelming.
