Raising my own kids who both very clearly have autism I'm learning that a lot of my behaviors that were "so obviously related to my autism" as a kid were literally just normal kid shit. I think they also wanted me to learn to mask 24/7 which is what my undiagnosed father does and it's not exactly a healthy way of handling it (at least for him)
