In a recent conversation with my grandmother she told me that psychologists wanted to diagnose me with aspergers syndrome, but nothing was ever done about it. I'm pretty sure this was due to the stigma that surrounds ASD, especially sinc since my family wasn't exactly educated about it. I think that if I would have been aware and educated about this though, things could have been a little bit better, just because I would have understood. I feel the same way about the mbti, I feel better because I understand.
Either way, I'm slowly learning more about autism and I wanted to know where it stood with the mbti. Does it affect types? Is it more common in specific types? Does autism affect types or does your type affect autism? I know there's a lot of variables.
Are any of you autistic or have aspergers (is that even a valid term anymore?) Or have any good resources to learn more? Thank you!!
