Autism Self diagnosis is invalid!
Autism is the new fad!
Everybody wants to be Autistic!

Um, NO. Autism Self-Diagnosis is valid. Autism Self-Diagnosis is a RIGHT.

Until someone has chosen you as their provider and is getting your professional autism OPINION, their self-diagnosis is none of your business.

And I don't understand autistic people who gatekeep autism and say that people can't research and validate their own neurovariance as autistic. You've experienced all the ableism levied against you and your autism, right? Why would anyone who is NOT autistic CHOOSE that for themselves!?

Wanting to have an autism diagnosis certainly isn't "neurotypical" behavior. Maybe you should look at why people identifying as autistic makes you uncomfortable.
