I don't think you are something wrong, I think it's wonderful that brains can be so different. I'm fascinated by every type of neurodivergence. You should be proud of what you are, not ashamed of being "something wrong".
That statement comes from a place of amazing privilege. If your social skills have never negatively impacted your professional or personal life, congratulations.
For the rest of us, it's not always a gift. It can be (for me that's analytical thinking and technical writing). But it can also be an absolute curse.

Wow. Absolutely not. ADHD has practically ruined the majority of my life and BPD ruins many/most of my social interactions. That doesn't mean there's anything wrong with me though, it just means I'd rather die, but I prefer not to impose that view on others. I'm relatively proud-ish to be myself despite my flaws, that absolutely does not mean I don't have flaws or that they haven't caused me immeasurable pain. Go call privileged someone else.
That might be true if we lived in a true meritocracy, but we don't. Struggling with interpersonal relationships and communication is a major hindrance.
