    Childhood trauma can cause the same symptoms as autism but that usually gets worked out through therapy and some mood boosters.

    Guess how I found out :)

        Happy pills. I was given amphetamines to start, but that’s an extreme scenario as I was in the psych ward. Nowadays I take a very small dose of a different medicine, just gives a small lift in mood. Not even really noticeable to me but they helped me engage in general, making therapy actually productive.
