@punishmenthurts@axnxcamr@Zumbador@actuallyautistic I also think the tests really don’t cover older undiagnosed adults, who really learned to figure things out and manage what was unmanageable, who became wiser, better at self care, self respect.
Things changed significantly for me with age & experience, and I started including myself in the whole of things I cared about.
The metrics didn’t apply as much if at all as an older adult. But I’m still autistic. So something is off.
