cracks knuckle time for a long rant
so i asked my psychologist if i could get an ASD/autism diagnosis and they said okay so obviously they got back to my mom who didnt take it well
she started saying that im most likely not and in fact shes suspected me to have OCD instead, but when i ask her whats the problem in just getting closure, shes just soooo convinced i wont be able to manage my reaction to getting a diagnosis, saying that ill probably just try to get another diagnosis because i think "theres something wrong with me" and i shouldnt listen to non-medical input because, well, it isnt medical.
first of all, why do you see ASD/autism in such a negative light? I just want to know if i have it or not, so why keep insisting that i shouldnt take the assessment?
second of all, i already said that the diagnosis will help me to better understand myself but you keep taking it as im gonna harp on it and keep thinking theres something wrong with me. this is the first ever diagnosis ive ever asked her for. what evidence other than my "apparent negative mindset" do you have to say that ill treat the diagnosis like an insecurity?
third of all, stop treating medical imput as some holy bible. the medical system is known for being an inaccurate bitch.
okay Marsha Thankk You For the Dialectics, do you just want your child not to have autism/asd? i bet whatever her concerns she told me stems from her hidden fear of me turning out "wrong" because of her.
in which, she is correct, most of my trauma comes from her. Good job.
