There's a kind of pride that's not moralistic or performative. It's closer to: I like who I am. And there's nothing wrong with that. It's okay to like myself. It's even good to like oneself.
And in fact, I do like how my brain works. Most of the time.

I posted this a couple of years ago, but it's good to remember that there are many therapies that can help autistic people.
Thanks to the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry (AACAP) for their public statement supporting different approaches.

When some people learn you're Autistic, they may start treating you as less intelligent or incapable, even though nothing about you has actually changed. Or they might speak slower and use small words, because in some people's minds, that's what you do for someone who's disabled. With absolutely no nuance. 1/2

For those of us who figure out we're Autistic and/or ADHD as adults, it's incredibly common to experience a mix of overwhelm, relief, regret, hope, anger, and excitement. Sometimes all at once.
That's normal for us.
And figuring yourself out is worth it all.#Autism #Autistic #ActuallyAutistic #AutismAcceptance #ADHD #AuDHD

The story we've been told about autism is incomplete. 💙 I'm available for media appearances and interviews to talk about what autism actually looks like in adults — and what a world that genuinely includes and values autistic people could look like. Let's have a real conversation.

April is coming — and so is an important conversation. The narrative around autism is changing — and I want to be part of that conversation. I'm available for media appearances and interviews.

If your Autistic child, friend, partner, family member, etc seems "dramatic" due to their routine being disrupted, they're not. It is truly world breaking for them when it happens. It feels awful. And it isn't their fault. Have patience, and take it a step at a time.

In this neurotypical society, anything can happen, and going outside at all is scary enough as is trying to keep yourself together.

Careful with what words come out of your mouth. Even you could misinterpret it as literal.

CW: Mentions of politics
Would anyone be interested if I ever made a Substack account for my writing? It'd be for shits and giggles basically, I don't wanna feel obligated to write articles all the time. I'd probably write about politics and possibly esotericism. All of my articles would be free unless I get good traction on there.
For more background into my politics, I'm an independent from the US with a slight left lean. I'm also a bi AuDHD woman, so I'm able to bring a healthy dose of diversity into what I do! I think universal healthcare, inflation and privacy are the biggest issues in the US currently. That said, I'm also very passionate about neurodivergent advocacy and acceptance. I think neurodivergence is the biggest DEI issue that few talk about.

Benevolent Ableism is a very real growing problem around ABA and it's infringing of autism/human rights these days....

Dear friends, 👋
As someone who has autism, I believe it's essential to break the barriers of misunderstanding and raise awareness about this unique neurotype. 🧠
Therefore, I invite each and every one of you to take part in an interactive Q&A session about (my) autism! Please feel free to ask me anything! ✨
