Regarding the taking of drugs, I wonder how those on the spectrum here would feel about the prospect of changing their experience of the world to 'normal' if it were available.
Honestly, I don't know if I would. Something about medication itself that makes me wary about using it myself, especially if intended to treat psychological problems. To be clear, I'm ok with the way I am, despite occasional fantasies of being different. After all, this is life, and one can't have everything. And as you say, no such thing as truly normal. It's all in degrees.

That is up to you. You know the most about your life experiences. How much of an impact has this had on you in life, in case you do have autism? Dan Aykroyd has done quite well in life despite being diagnosed with autism.
