I've been rewatching Bones since the beginning and I'd forgotten how much I love Zack and I'm so upset about what they took away from me. It's the only thing about this show that truly bothers me.

“autism doesn’t make you do [x]” no, your autism doesn’t

[thexinthefile]

Okay, I think I finally understood the difference between autism levels and support needs. I believe they are equivalent in my country though, and when assessing your support needs they only consider the autism criterion.

In my particular case i think they are equivalent. The only other conditions that affect my daily life are some sleep disorders and ADHD but even if I didn't have those I don't think my functioning and quality of life would improve considerably. After all my greatest difficulties are due to  inflexibility, difficulty with transitions, change,  that sort of things (I'm aware these can be difficulties for some people with ADHD as well, but the key difference here is severity).

My original diagnosis was autism level 1, then I had an adaptive behavior assessment and my diagnosis changed to autism level 2.

I found out I was autistic 10 years ago and assumed I was a Level 1. Since then the community has grown a lot and I don't want to question whether they're actually autistic or not but I've noticed that my level of support needs and theirs tend to be vastly different. Even back then, most Level 1 autistic people in the community were working at least part-time.

The reason I decided to go through an adaptive behavior assessment is because my original autism assessment didn't go into depth to identify my support needs. Years before my diagnosis a neuropsychologist said I was too intelligent to have the difficulties I claimed to have. Later I discovered that in many autistic people with high IQ the discrepancy between intelligence and adaptive behaviors is much wider than in other autistic people. 

However I still don't feel comfortable owning the label, mostly because I don't come off as a person with level 2 autism and/or msn (10 years ago doctors didn't even consider me autistic) and I know that my IQ is a huge advantage and that it calls into question my diagnosis. I suppose that even within each level there is a wide spectrum of support requirements. My current perception is that is not quite level 1 and not quite level 2. Although around level 1/lsn people I feel out of place and think maybe there's something else wrong with me, but around level 2/msn people I'm like "ah, so it is just the autism"
