As a parent on the spectrum, I often feel like I'm the only one despite knowing it ain't so.
Anyone else a parent AND autistic?
Any autistic parents here?

I'm ADHD, but my kids consultant thinks I have ASD traits. Both my kids are ADHD and ASD, kinda makes sense as it's genetic.

I'm an autistic parent! My child's 5 now and he's autistic too and it can be hard to manage sometimes with my sensory issues around making his food, calming him down during screaming tantrums and stuff. But I get through it, barely
Non-binary, 22 and sad. AN for 9 years. I'd like to recover but is it really ever gonna happen? Really?

My son's on the spectrum and, although I've never been diagnosed, various mental health professionals have suggested I might be too. It's not a bad thing, I feel like I can relate to him a lot better because we often see things the same way. I've considered going for a professional diagnosis, but I'm 35 now, I'm not sure what I'd really gain from it.
