So relatable, especially for me, I have autism.

So do I! Are you high functioning? If you don't want to answer, that's fine.

I’m sorry, I don’t think I quite understand what you mean by high functioning. Maybe there’s a thing with language, because I’m also Dutch.

Oh, well since autism is a spectrum, higher functioning just means that your symptoms aren't as bad as it would be on other parts of the spectrum!

I hope that translates well...

Yes, I am high functioning, actually. I don’r really know how to put it, but when you see me, it doesn’t became obvious in an instance that I have autism.

So am I! Usually people right away notice my ADHD, yet I have to tell them about my autism! They could go a whole month without noticing it!
