About the Author
The Great Autism Redemption
After spending years of my life believing I was not a real person because I had not experienced sex, I have reached a new place in life. I still think experiencing sex will be one of the greatest things in the world. However, I have freed myself of the misery of believing that experiencing sex was a life or death thing.
In years past, I have self-injured because I believed I deserved to be punished for not having sexual intimacy with a woman.
My mind played games with me and even confused me of my sexuality. Did I like men? The answer of course is no.
Living as an undiagnosed Aspie until the age of 22, I knew I liked girls from the age of 13. I formed an intense desire to be with them both emotionally and intimately.
Lacking the social skills to meet women in appropriate ways, I threw myself at women with a bunch of "Hi I’m Travis. Will you marry me questions and a bunch of Hi I’m Travis, will you have sex with me questions.
Those immediate questions came after a few years of trying to approach it like everyone else. I learned that intimacy takes a very deep connection and I kept getting rejected.
Eventually, it bothered me to the point I needed to be vulnerable and seek help. I went to counseling to ask, how do I get a girlfriend?
What I learned was that I needed to ask a different question. How do I love myself?
Years of social rejection had led to a very poor self-esteem. I did not believe in myself. I did not love myself. I believed I could not love myself because a woman had not slept with me. I needed a woman to love me before I could love myself. I was broken then, but now I am whole.
I would be diagnosed with autism in the fall of 2007. Right away and for nearly ten years I thought that autism was wrong with me and I hated it. For years I tried to cure it and make it go away. I’m glad that was not possible. I am glad I am autistic now.
I realize now, I believed Autism was wrong with me because of my initial approach to counseling. I approached my first counseling appointment ever feeling broken with a desire to fix myself, so others could like me and want to be with me.
I desperately wanted the counselor to fix me because I did not know how to fix myself. What was it that made girls not like me?
When the counselor did not fix me instantly I became frustrated and more upset at myself. So, I self-injured some more and punished myself for who I
