There are always certain things that I wished were never real like various diseases or other struggles we may go through in school, work, and at home. The main one I wonder is what would life be like if Autism never existed and none of the sysmptoms were even there?
I and many of you always struggle with the fact that we have trouble in certain social situations, have depression, anxiety and whatever else it may be. I at times feel like I’m trapped in a hole I could not get out of and feel this sense of feeling like I don’t belong in society to the point my life felt like it sucked all the time . I just imagine a perfect world where disabilities just do not exist feeling like you blend in with the rest of the crowd. We can be able to interact and do all the things NTs do as well as feeling less stress by our abnormal behavior from the average person. I feel like there is a parallel world out there where I do not have this condition.
Honestly though as much as I like the idea of Autism not being a reality it really doesn’t define who I am.
Say that I never had autism and I never had any problems I’m still going to be the person I want to be in life;who knows, the two parallel worlds I just mentioned one leads to a same life or slightly different such as both world going to college but maybe having different careers. Maybe I would be way more outgoing in this parallel world but would my other self learn any challegenes of what I’ve overcome in reality today? Even if there was a cure one day and it suddenly was not there the next day I wouldn’t feel any different than I do today. There are people who have are really successful with autism or aspergers such as Bill Gates and Stephen Spilburg.
If everyone were all perfect and the same then there would not be much in the way of some various ideas and methods of coping with life no matter the struggle. It took me a while to accept myself in terms of being different and being yourself shows how unique you can be, creating and establishing new ideas for others which I’m hoping to do one day for society. Whether I’m thinking about reality or fantasy and even if I never had autism, I still want to live a positive life for myself cause that’s just what people do no matter what direction I take or problem that exist.
