One of the reasons I don’t like self-diagnosed autism is because of how many “Autistics” I stumble upon that actually have borderline personality disorder. This is problematic for a few reasons: One of them being you’re seeking resources for a condition you don’t have – you may as well be taking a sugar pill. But this is also harmful on a societal level, because when you present your BPD symptoms as autism symptoms, you skew the public perception of autism. It can greatly sway autism resources – it also denies people with BPD proper resources. It IS possible to have autism + BPD, I don’t want to deny that. Just please don’t self-diagnose your autism.
