I'm curious how autists self identify.
1. Choose 1-3 main things that identifies you. This is my experiment to see if I feel I understand this ok. Also write whatever response comes to mind - even things like: "I don't know" - in your own words, etc".
2. Also write which country you're form / or mostly shaped by

I can start:

I'm an artist.
I'm me.

Poland / lived long in England

PS: If you follow the thread, I will let you my thoughts and a kind of "theory" in maybe. a day or two, depending if people are still replying. So this is kind of a curious experiment — you can join if want to learn something with me. Also, if you have any thoughts about autistic "identity" feel free to share.

I edited my post to also add this one question that I can factor in my recognising pattern. If you want to, go back and edit your reply to answer the second question:
"2. Also write which country you're form / or mostly shaped by"

but if you don't want to it's ok. I like games and experiments like that! I can't wait to see what we make of it
