Subject: Disadvantages of an autism diagnosis,

#AskingAutistics, esp if you've experience of seeking, getting, or considering getting, a diagnosis, for self and/or child.

Are there disadvantages of having a diagnosis, in your view?

Anything at all!

Reposts appreciated too ☺️

@KatyElphinstone One of the biggest disadvantages of my recent diagnosis has been that my life partner now immediately writes off any thoughts I express on social relationships. So there is a category of difficulties that I have with my life partner that has essentially stopped improving.

@eo @KatyElphinstone That's a shame, seems like an opportunity for them understand how you both read a particular situation.
