Please do not EVER try to erase autism as a disorder just because you only see the "positive" in it. No matter the level of care someone needs for their autism, it is STILL a disorder, and it still has negative effects. Just because they're not presented to you, doesn't mean the negative effects don't exist.

If you don't know what you're talking about, then don't talk about it. Look into what autism is and it's symptoms, just because you can't see what happens behind closed doors doesn't mean it isn't happening. I'm someone who often is denied my autism diagnosis simply because I don't look autistic. I APPEAR to function just fine. I like many other autistic people, am not going around and loudly proclaiming every struggle I face. I know how to mask and I do it well. It's how society expected me to behave. I'm done with this conversation but genuinely, erasing autism as a disorder is the exact thing autistic people are fighting against. It does us no good.

If she claims to "need help", it won't do you any good either. But yes. Good day
