There is no such thing as “normal”, just “rejected”. Society needs to adjust because autism ain’t going away.
To get a diagnosis, you need to see a psychologist through a therapist, afaik doctors don’t usually hand out autism diagnoses. Seek psych clinics that specialize in neurodivergence.
Doctors can’t, it takes a several appointments with a psychologist (or psyc through therapist) to be sure before making a diagnosis. You don’t need to go to a specialist either
You don’t need to go to a specialist, but it definitely helps. I’ve had therapists deny my childhood autism diagnosis because they have no clue what to look for in a masking individual.
Psych through a therapist is cheaper and easier in my experience.
