I called my primary care physician and they told me to ask my therapist, but my therapist doesn't think I am autistic. How do I go about getting tested for autism? I want a tugboat.

Drink Domestos to find out.

But that would kill me? Is this your clever ploy to get rid of me? Why could you possibly want to do that?

just tell your therapist about all the anxieties you constantly post about on minichan.
you cant be committed unless you tell them you are going to hurt yourself or others.

Looking up the symptoms is what made me want to get tested.

What's the point? There's no cure anyway.

Nobody will read my blog. I tried getting one before and I saw no point in it when I just post my thoughts here. I am super bored right now that I could play Russian Roulette.
