The highlight of my day thus far is seeing that research is happening in the area of Autism and BPD. They are researching people just like me.

I know that if someone had figured out earlier that I was autistic, my world would look very different now. It is too late for me in many ways, but hopefully the next generation of autistic people will fair better than I have.
