Heya @actuallyautistic folks, do we have a Prime Directive around undiagnosed folks?

Trans folks have the Egg Prime Directive: don't tell someone they might be trans, because it's conter-intuitive in most cases (pushing people deeper into the closet).

As I disclose my diagnosis to people close to me, an unsurprising amount of them resonate with my experience and ask me whether I think they might be. I refuse to answer but share resources and offer to reply to questions about my personal experience.

@quinze @actuallyautistic just as a note, the egg prime directive is very contentious among trans people, with some claiming it's harmful and based on individualistic, ahistorical ideas about transness. personally i'm very thankful for some ppl having told me i might be trans, since the entire rest of the world was telling me that could never ever be the case. not claiming anything about this principle applied to autistic folks, especially since i'm unsure if i fit under that term

@LehtoriTuomo @actuallyautistic just today my roommate was ranting to me how there is no way i'm neurotypical even though that's how i identify. maybe i should look into some of these :)
