is there a point to an adult diagnosis? in c/[email protected]

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I haven't gotten an adult diagnosis yet, but my therapist and I discussed it because I had wondered what's the point now (I'm 43). The thing she said to me that clicked the most for me was that officially having the diagnosis/"label" would let me join groups that for autistic folks and have some camaraderie.

Can you drive a manual transmission? in c/[email protected]

USA, mid-40s. My husband made me buy a manual car 20 years ago and taught me how to drive it. I’ve been driving manual since and love it.
