Not really. I mostly embrace it and use it to educate others. A lot of people do treat me differently but that is okay in my eyes, I'm helping others understand my disabilities and also helping people learn how to help others.

Yeah. A lot of people don't think that I have it, and I've only told a few close friends. I hate hearing people mock autistic traits and behaviors that are completely normal and valid; so much is expected from me because I don't portray the "normal" symptoms of being on the spectrum
