He revealed on Tuesday that he was diagnosed with autism last year.
Wentworth Miller shared a post on Instagram on Tuesday which had a blank white square to represent his illness. The actor revealed he was diagnosed last year and it had come as a ‘shock’ but ‘not a surprise’.
“This isn’t something I’d change,” Miller added. “No. I get – got – immediately being autistic is central to who I am. To everything, I’ve achieved/articulated…I also want to say to the many (many) people who consciously or unconsciously gave me that extra bit of grace + space over the years, allowed me to move thru the world in a way that made sense to me whether or not it made sense to them… thank you.”
More so, the actor also criticized the diagnostic process for adults, calling it “a long, flawed process in need of updating.” “I’m a middle-aged man. Not a 5-year-old,” he wrote.
