So, with all the talk about RMS being on the autism spectrum in the last threads on this topic, with RMS speculating about it himself, and now this letter where he talks about his problems about interpreting social cues: To me this reads if he never bothered to get an official diagnosis? Since there is a lot of stigma that comes with neurodevelopmental disorders and mental health in general, I get that this is a highly private matter. That said, if it's the case that he truly suspects that he is on the autism spectrum but never bothered to get a diagnosis that would somewhat be a bad sign to me just on a general level, considering all the push back that he obviously got from people because of his behaviour.
