I talk about the "preparation" I do to get ready to socialize with a friend or go to an appointment and how I feel when someone cancels on me (usually pretty happy).

I take issue with the word DISORDER in Autism Spectrum Disorder. Why? Cuz it's not a disorder! I share my perspective on this diagnosis and why I feel like it should be removed from the DSM.
