"I thought it was just me."
Almost certainly the one realisation that we all have, over and over again.
Often tied in with "but I don't - insert autistic trait here-" only to realise that yes you do, just in ways that you're so used to that you don't think about them that way. Or because you mask them so well, even you don't notice.
Confidence and belief in yourself comes not just from the validation of realising you're not alone, but also that it's perfectly natural and good.
