Wow, that was weird. I just had a long dream, and in it, I had an autistic meltdown. In the dream, I was forced to people a lot in a gathering-type environment, people IRL that I had no- contacted for good reason were forcing me to account for my upcoming schedule, and my phone which helps me remember things and stay functional kept crashing itself when I needed it most.

I have no idea what triggered this dream, but oh am I glad to have my safe space at home with my kitty! It's interesting how this intensity is lying in wait just outside the door.

Dr Megan Anna Neff, in a recent newsletter blog on https://neurodivergentinsights.com, just did an interesting thought exercise about "Not Everything Needs an Upside: Neurodivergent Reflections on AuDHD and Mental Health".

I can relate to it quite a bit. But not trying to look at the upsides all the time seem a bit defeatist (if realistic).

I also related to bipolar often being stigmatized, based on when I was (mis-)diagnosed that way for decades.

Being misunderstood is a huge trigger for me, perhaps tied to the fight against human injustice part of neurodivergence. Stimming isn't even re-regulating me right now.

I asked my GP/PCP to complete a form so that I could have a preferred medical transportation provider. First, even though I use and *need* a cane, they said I did not on the form. And then they completed the form without specifying the preferred provider.

I'm really triggered right now. Trying my best to calm down and not burn down the bridge of the relationship.

People pleasing is a big part of my personality, for better or for worse. This has recently gotten in the way of my health.

With my spine surgeon, he wanted me to be using an external spine stimulator. He also wanted me to be doing regular physical therapy. For the former, I now have a gastric stimulator where it's no longer possible to use it. And for physical therapy, time and time again it has been proven it affects my ME/CFS post-exertional malaise as well as the whole-body-pain part of my Sjogren's for up to a week after one one-hour session.

Anyway, I was supposed to be getting regular monitoring every 6-8 weeks from the surgeon for a year. But I was so concerned in disappointing him in the above that I pulled away. I think some changes have happened to my spine that need to be watched and possibly addressed.

So I made peace that, although he's a fellow human with feelings, this is a professional relationship that is goal driven. I can't be concerned about disappointing him. Feels like some big personal growth here to understand boundaries better! 😀

Wow that was fun, enlightening, and reassuring. I just redid the standard autism online quizzes as part of preparing for a formal diagnosis of the autism in 6-12 months. I had first done these a couple years ago, when I was trying to decide if I might be neurodivergent.

Very high likelihood of autism, *extremely high* alexithymia, high burnout, *extremely* high monotropism.

@autistics #ActuallyAutistics

I've been deep diving into this YouTube channel. It has great non-binary and neurodivergent (especially autistic) content.

The one thing that keeps catching me off guard is that they are framing neurodivergence as a disability. Is that a cultural thing that I missed (they are in the UK)? Or is it the perception of this YouTuber? I've always framed it as a different type of brain and way of looking at the world.

I'll still keep watching and supporting their content, but it's something that keeps niggling me.

This is fascinating and I'm glad research continues to happen into autism.

I just hope there wouldn't be unintended consequences where a less-enlightened parent would give up their newborn child if they thought they were different, should this prove to be viable research.

So far, everything I've found that is labeled "seamless" is straight up lying.

‘Neural noise’ could be a hidden advantage of the autistic mind

But some research, including our own study, has explored specific advantages in autism. Studies have shown that in some cognitive tasks, autistic people perform better than allistic people.

Autistic people face ignorance, prejudice and discrimination that can harm wellbeing. Poor mental and physical health, reduced social connections and increased “camouflaging” of autistic traits are some of the negative impacts that autistic people face.

So, research underlining and investigating the strengths inherent in autism can help reduce stigma, allow autistic people to be themselves and acknowledge autistic people do not require “fixing”.

The autistic brain is different. It comes with limitations, but it also has its strengths.

How do you define the term, “Openly Autistic”?

• Is it an autistic person who rarely masks?
• Or, an autistic who isn’t afraid and/or shy to share that they are actually autistic?
• Or, an autistic person who is active in the autism acceptance “movement” (if we can call it that)?
• Or, perhaps, an autistic who were interviewed and disclosed they’re autistic?

Maybe you have other considerations or criteria that defines “openly autistic” for you?

NOTE: Being openly autistic is a choice and is not for everyone. I think it is safe to say that we all face discrimination, stereotyping, and prejudice for being actually autistics, thus, most choose not to be open about it.

However, recently, there has been a slow growth in numbers of openly autistics, and like with most things in life, we have different criteria, definitions, and cultural considerations.

Thus, I am curious what you think, personally or maybe your immediate environment or organisation, is an openly autistic person. Or, when do you consider one as openly autistic.

Again, this is not about if an autistic person should be openly autistic or not. ^_^

Thank you for your interesting insights!
