Hi! I'm J/Jehan! I'm 18. I love homestuck, astrology and tarot! I am sure I'm autistic but since I'm technically awaiting diagnosis I went with that tag. By the way why is this forum still stuck in the functioning label thing? I thought those were outdated?
 
Hi @Jehan Welcome to Central :)
For me, terms used on here like "high function ASD" are just a reflection of how things were stated or described during diagnosis. I understand that convention & thoughts about stuff can change, like:"Asperger's Syndrome" is less used than previous.
 
welcome jehan its as elemental says diagnosis and labels
its used for receiving medical treatment disability !!!! another label benefits
