Original Note:
“It was not a happy childhood. I think when I was, I don’t know, 5 or 6 or something, I thought I was insane.” When asked why Elon said: even as a youngster, he knew other people’s minds were not always “exploding with ideas” like his. This could be due to his ASD diagnosis. https://www.nimh.nih.gov/health/topics/autism-spectrum-disorders-asd#:~:text=Autism%20Spectrum%20Disorder-,Overview,first%202%20years%20of%20life. https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/elon-musk-reveals-thought-insane-might-put-away.html/
