And my lack of Corporate Sex Education? Confused the Hell out of #AutisticAF dot me. Well into my 50s.
I entered the workforce with this "boy genius" vision of myself in my head.

CW: Autistic Burnout
I dropped out of a couple of school district #SPED #advocacy groups. I was just too overwhelmed. Burned out. But this sucks. I want to be there to advocate. But I don’t want burn out. Is there a way to do that? I’m torn.
I’m hesitant to commit because I fear burnout. But I want to represent. Is this just dumb? I’m not sure. So I’m asking, honestly.

Been seeking community and connection. I’m emerging from a dark period of the last few months, triggered by setbacks for my son at school. We’re on an upswing and better path now. I hope that it isn’t disrupted. I need it not to be. I’m learning that I need to #unmask more with school staff and clearly communicate the harm this BS causes. It’s too easy for them to gloss over and ignore. I simply won’t weather it any more. #ActuallyAutistic #ParentingWhileAutistic #AutisticAF #AutisticParenting

@actuallyautistic Well I got a reply from school today. Director reports that staff have met, and will be taking better care to better contextualize and avoid #pathologizing my son’s behavior. Promise made. Promise kept? Time will tell.
His 1:1 started yesterday. Observing for low but will probably start working with him next week. 🤞🤞🙏

For those of you interested, this is the letter I sent to son’s school about how their #communication belies their actions and triggers major #anxiety, with names obscured. @actuallyautistic #ActuallyAutistic #AutisticAF #ABA #PBT #ParentingWhileAutistic #AutisticBurnout #AutisticParenting #unmasking #SelfAdvocate

@danseurignoble I’m sorry, but I refuse that #allistic #delay label. Compared to who? Ugh. Yes we #neurodivergent folks do things differently but that never diminishes us. That’s accomplished by allistics that insist the world in theirs and only their perspective matters. #BULLSHIT! #ActuallyAustistic #AutisticAF
You adult at whatever pace is relevant to and healthy for you. ❤️
