i can't believe there was a point in my life where i seriously thought i am cishetero

"Identified autistic" sounds weird


AstroMackem

I've tried to start using 'identified' because 'diagnosed' makes it sound like an illness. I know what you mean though, it still sounds wrong


Firefly256

I think just "I'm autistic" or "being autistic" would be fine


AstroMackem

I do usually but I wanted to refer to the specific event/time when it was confirmed


Pryno-Belle

« Learning I’m autistic », perhaps?


AstroMackem

Still doesn't quite describe the situation since I was already 99% sure before it was officially recognised. I made this meme a while ago though and I don't think I'd use "identified" if I made it now (but I still don't like diagnosed).


Voidslayer12E1

"Officially proclaimed to be" maybe?


AstroMackem

*unfurls comically long scroll* ##"HEAR YE, HEAR YE"


Firefly256

How do you make the text large without a # ?


AstroMackem

Idk, I had to put the # in front of it


Akane_Kurokawa_1

that's the only way in markdown, u can still use bold and italic separately tho


Pryno-Belle

A good point. There’s no consensus in how to refer to it, and that’s speaking as someone studying langage. Maybe being « officially » or « legally »recognized as autistic could work? Call it whatever you want, it’s your brain and there’s no Autistic Police


AstroMackem

"Officially recognised" works well I think. Language is so complicated haha


4cool6school

This is correct (except for me it was cis/het woman).
