Days since the Internet forgot that profound autism exists.
It’s weird because terminally online people forget that profound autism exists but most irl people I talk to have no concept of autism besides profound autism.
Otoh, I think most people irl and online think of ADHD as quirky distracted ball of energy meanwhile severe ADHD is not actually seen as a disability but a personal failing or mistaken for the classic depression+anxiety combo.
dandelion (she/her)this is why I still like “autism” as a term referring to severe / profound autism, and using a term still like Aspergers for those with high-functioning / mild autism (and maybe even including “broad autism phenotype”)
