I'll be waiting to candle the rest until next week to be careful. I don't want to be handling them too much
That's a good idea. When it comes time to hatch, be prepared to step in, in case there are a couple that need help getting out

Thankfully I've assisted hatches before so I know how to be careful when doing itThat's a good idea. When it comes time to hatch, be prepared to step in, in case there are a couple that need help getting out
I used to dislike self diagnosis but now I really get it. It's not always straight forward getting a diagnosed, it can take a level of privilege, a lot of the time.A lot of nonneurotypical people (at least in my area) aren't formally diagnosed. It's either self diagnosis or a diagnosis from a therapist (but not a doctor and a test). Some people don't think anything but a formal doctor's diagnosis is enough, some say self diagnosis is valid
My doctor said if I can force myself to make eye contact, there's no point in getting tested. I need a doctor to recommend testing to even have a hope for actually getting to be tested, despite my therapist as well as several neurodivergent friends and family also saying that I definitely am on the spectrum, if not that plus AdhdI used to dislike self diagnosis but now I really get it.

I'm self diagnosed autistic, and I say that after so many signs throughout my life, that I've been told to ignore. After a professional told me casually that I could probably get a diagnosis, and after taking multiple tests online which my autistic partner made me take due to suspicions... (and scoring extremely high on them)
Diagnosis just isn't possible for me right now, seems like a lot of energy and time for them to misdiagnose me or tell me its just anxiety or something. Being a woman is fun
I'm about to try and go thru the process of being diagnosed for autism/ADHD etc etc. I'll let you know if I find some good resources, my partner just did it but she said it was not super thorough and it was not as easy as one would think to get diagnosed or find the right people who could do it. Apparently a lot of people don't know how to look for more than high needs level autism. It's exhausting how little mental health resources we have and it's 2024...My doctor said if I can force myself to make eye contact, there's no point in getting tested.

Exactly. This is what I’m scared of if I ask my parents to get diagnosed.misdiagnose me or tell me its just anxiety or something
That's literally insaneMy doctor said if I can force myself to make eye contact, there's no point in getting tested
Omg yeah. Like that’s straight up just a stereotype at that point. Reminds me of the time NASA sent a woman up into space with 100 tampons for only like five days.That's literally insane
So many autistic/neurodivergent people can make eye contact, doesn't mean they don't still need support and deserve diagnosis
Jeez, some doctors really make me not trust the healthcare system at all
At least she wouldn't have to worry about running outOmg yeah. Like that’s straight up just a stereotype at that point. Reminds me of the time NASA sent a woman up into space with 100 tampons for only like five days.
