Acting Neurotypical as a Neurodivergent person to avoid Ableism or general bullying

Oh. Well, nobody has ever asked me if I had autism or not so I guess to others, I’m just a normal neurotypical person. Quite a few people have asked me how I am very academically intelligent (well they just say “why are you so smart”) and I just tell them that I don’t know or that I read Wikipedia.

That is the truth as all but one time it was asked before I learned about my diagnosis and the one time it was asked after, I told them about Wikipedia and I do read a lot of Wikipedia.

The real reason though is because I have high-functioning ASD.
