    There are a lot of different options. I thought adderall was the worst for side effects. I’ve been through several different medications throughout the last 5 or so years. Focalin so far has been the best fit for me.

    The thought crossed my mind. I feel like often after the fact I realize the social cues. It’s like I pick up on them but I’m almost too focused on my thoughts/desires to act according to the social cues; then later I regret not acting on those social cues. I’ll have a little voice that says I shouldn’t say/do the thing but the impulse is to strong to stop myself. I guess I don’t know a whole lot about mild autism however, wouldn’t I like not understand the error I made until someone directly explains it?

    We’re still very much in the dark ages when it comes to mental health. It sounds like the metrics may need some fine tuning. But if you find a medication works well for you, you’ll have your diagnosis for sure.

    I was going to ask you the same thing! Jk. Well I do love listening to youtube videos on the topic I’m trying to learn while driving or doing chores around the house. Finding an app that has relevant flashcards or exercises to learn the topic is fun.

    I think any good therapist would be fine with you trying to self diagnose. It’s only natural to try to find a way to explain our experiences.
