Oh just- Really? Really now? Let me tell you something. I am autistic. I have a diagnosis from several psychologists. I've been to therapy (and subsequently decided 'screw therapy I can do better on my own') and the awkwardness and self-esteem issues? Yes, I have them. And a gazillion other things that make social interaction very hard.

THEY ARE BAD THINGS.

They mess up my life. They make it almost impossible for me to get a job because I have no idea how to function at job interviews. I can't go out to the pub because I have melt downs. If I try to be spontaneous I can't enjoy myself because it feels like I have no control. I am highly sensitive to auditory input to the point where I would have panic attacks almost daily on my commutes to university.

BAD. THINGS.

Does that mean that I think autism is bad? No. I wouldn't want a cure, but I could do without some of the symptoms. I love being able to see details. I love remembering stuff that other people easily forget. I love being able to see things from a different point of view.

I am not exempt from criticism simply because I have a diagnosis on the spectrum. In fact, I welcome it because it gives me a chance to learn and develop as a person.
