“To be blunt, I do not want to spend time having conversations I could have simply imagined in my head.”

“I feel as though my brain is a room that I have decorated and furnished in preparation for a very specific event, and the change of plans is like someone breezing in and declaring that "actually it's not a Halloween party, it's a baby shower", and leaving me to readjust everything on my own.”

“Often when people react to new information about autism they end up accidentally correctly pointing out evidence of autism as opposed to evidence of its absence. They end up like someone throwing up their arms in frustration and saying, ‘Oh! So I suppose this means everyone at the Trainspotters’ Guild could be autistic? Next, you’ll be telling me that all my shy friends in the university maths department are autistic too!’ My friend, the odds are good.”
