This was suggested to me by @BackOnMyBS@lemmy.autism.place.

  • I’m a late teen (17). I got an autism diagnosis (which still causes more problems, than good) when I was three years old.
  • You already know a lot about autism (since most of you are autistic), so you don’t need any explanation (even if it’s a spectrum).
  • Now let’s explain why I think I’m a narcissist: When I entered high school a few years ago, I started feeling superior to my schoolmates. At first I felt, this was justified, as I have way better grades than my schoolmates (and had a way higher admission score (or whatever it’s called) than others), but later I realized, it was unjustified, as even if I’m smarter, than everyone, I have other challenges (executive function, procrastination of anything related to communication). That wouldn’t be anything weird, but even after that realization, I just can’t grasp the fact my schoolmates aren’t stupid and useless. AMA

PS:I know it’s a way too long post and doesn’t belong here, but it is what it is.

    Well, I actually have a fluctuating ego. Sometimes I do have extreme reactions to opinions, but they are not rage and are usually internalized. Thanks for the explanation, which pulls me further into the rabbit hole of psychology (which I still don’t understand).
