While I’ve never been formally diagnosed, I wouldn’t be surprised. Your experience is similar to mine with an acting workshop I took out of curiosity that ended up completely changing me, particularly in social settings. Unlike you, I resisted fully giving in to the experience, but I did take a second semester with the same teacher and lost a lot of inhibitions along the way. There’s no way I’d have ever gotten involved with the poetry slam or public speaking without it. And that’s my long-winded way of saying thanks for the book recommendation. I just ordered a copy!
