Funny self realisation

I was diagnosed last month at age 38. I didn’t seek out and diagnosis and had no idea I had autism.

Anyway, that came as quite a shock and with it a load of self reflection and also some crumbling of self -narratives, some good, some bad.

My favourite so far: I’ve always been a gym going guy and I’ve been ‘locked in’ in terms of health, nutrition, weight lifting etc for over 10 years. I always prided myself on how much ‘discipline’ I had and how I was a ‘disciplined guy’.

Haha turns out it was autism the whole time and I’m terrified to deviate from the structure I’ve made for myself.

What are you funny self reflections?
