Rant about NTs in etreme denial

Post Reply New Topic

Enjoy my new rant, that comes directly from the IRC!

[19:36] <olle-wp> hello
[19:37] <olle-wp> what a day. i'm exhausted.
[19:38] <olle-wp> first i had a test at school, that i had barely prepared for. it went very well though.
[19:38] <olle-wp> then i had an appointment with a shrink, an autism specialist
[19:39] <olle-wp> the shrink was nice and we had an interesting talk.
[19:39] <olle-wp> then,
[19:39] <olle-wp> i come home and my mother starts with saying a diagnosis is no good,
[19:40] <olle-wp> then, goes on saying that
[19:41] <olle-wp> i don't have AS at all. she knows nothing on the subject, she has been really blind and only seen what she wanted to see, and because she and her sister has a goddamn stereotype of people with AS
[19:45] <olle-wp> NICKNAME_REMOVED etc: the thing is, the diagnosis is only a piece of paper. she thinks that that piece of paper will change my own self-confidence and lower my goals
[19:45] <olle-wp> which is crazy
[19:45] <olle-wp> i know i'm on the spectrum already
[19:50] <olle-wp> ok, to finish my rant
[19:50] <olle-wp> she complained i didn't look at her eyes when listening
[19:50] <olle-wp> like she had recently noticed
[19:50] <olle-wp> she said i used to have excellent eye contact, which actually confused me
[19:50] <olle-wp> it confuses the hell out of me
[19:51] <olle-wp> she hasn't noticed my oddness through all these years, or denied it, and thinks i'm completely normal. or, "was" normal.
[19:52] <olle-wp> until i psychoemotionally changed
[19:52] <olle-wp> and turned into an aspie-wannabe
[19:53] <olle-wp> and this person i've ranted about, my mother, is going to talk to NAME_OF_ASD_EXPERT when it's time for my diagnosis!! !!
[19:53] <olle-wp> AAAARGGGHH
