It is not a coincidence at all that I didn't start thinking "could I be autistic?" until after I became a parent - up until that time I could mostly just avoid or leave overwhelming situations and choose comfort whenever possible (had a lot of privilege in my earlier life), and then suddenly I found out what happens when I literally cannot leave the source of the overstimulation
