This is not about high-functioning vs low-functioning. We are all autistics regardless of, for lack of a better term, "severity". 👉🏽 Autism is a four-dimensional spectrum. 👈🏽 #AutisticActually #ActuallyAutistic #Autism #AutismSpectrum #Autistics

CW: A question for autistic writers
Are there any writers here who are autistic? How do you handle something that you don't understand or can't relate to?
My challenge is, there are so many things I can't grasp because of the way my brain works. For example, I see in novels and TV series/drama that a person loses focus when they hear a very bad news (like their health).
However, in my case, at least from my experiences of hearing bad news, I never once lost focus; instead, I am more focus on listening to the expert (like a doctor). I'm more attentive because in my mind, that's the only way forward.
So, if I want to write a character, I end up with something monotone or too generic. It is not realistic for most people, but it is for me.
Or say, a character who obviously shouldn't do something but they still do it anyway. I'm trying to understand why so I can develop the character, but I'm failing in it.
How do you handle it? Do you have a collection of examples, or watch something and put what you've watched into words?
Thank you!

‘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!

CW: Don't be overprotective, instead encourage and guide.
Do you have an #autistic child?
As an autistic myself, there are some things I should have tried but did not have the courage to do so.
Thus, my personal advice, is to _encourage_ your autistic (and NT) children to give it a try. Don't shield them because you “love them a lot”. Once they grow up, like in my experience, they will secretly always think, “I should've done this and that and see what happened, and maybe my life would be better”.
Here are some in my case:
* Voice acting. Our teachers, my classmates, and later work colleagues, have always said I can do well in reading. They feel the emotions and get immersed in the story.That's how far I did it. Today, I'm thinking, I should've taken a voice acting lesson, and maybe work as a voice actor.
* Physical labour. I'm not choosy when it comes to job, especially at my current age, a job is a job. (As long as it isn't a crime and immoral, of course.) Sadly, I was shielded from it because they “love me so much and don't want me to go through what they went through in life”.
The result of that wasn't good at all. I got stuck in office and BPO for a long time, and now it is so hard to move careers. My heart is in service and “people watching”, and to this day, it is so hard to get into a hotel-type of work. They either want you to have graduated in Business Administration or Hotel & Restaurant Management courses; or can carry a 30 kg baggage. Both of which I don't have.
I had to take B.S. Mathematics and Computer Science because, well, that's what they told me… office work.
You see, your “love” and not wanting your children to go through what you went through, can be detrimental for your children. It's fine to shield them, but it is also very easy for that shielding to limit your children's future.
This is especially important for us autistics who are already experiencing discrimination at work, and prejudice against hiring an autistic.
Instead of overprotecting your children, work with them. Identify what they want and see what can be done with it. If what they want would lead to “disaster” then nudge them gently to better options. Options, plural, not “what you want”.
There are autistics who can join the workforce, and in various capacities. Encourage us and guide us, but don't be overprotective and showing only one path. It might look good at that point in time, but how about the future?

Re: HB9787 or the “Neurodivergent People's Rights Act”

> For this reason, autistic communities prefer the use of identity-first language.
I'll be surprised if #Autism NGOs doesn't lobby against that.
The “person-first” language is strong in many members of autism NGOs in the country.
Majority of it are a “go” for me. I'm just 50-50 on the database part. While I understand why, it lacks requirement on ensuring the privacy and security of such a database; and a bulleted list and details on what that data will be used for. It should be specific, not broad. Otherwise, I think it is best not to build that database.
We've already seen how useless the #SIMregistration is. They pushed for it simply to collect data. They used scams and spams as a reason, and though people were warned against the uselessness of #SIMreg, the majority fell for it. (We're getting 100% more scams and spams after it was implemented.)

Two stereotypes about us #Autistics is we like #PrimeNumbers and #EvenNumbers. I'm a “yes” and a “no”.
I do like Prime numbers and Odd numbers:
* 17
* 13
* 717 is very special.
* 17 is the 7th Prime
* 1 is an odd number
* 7 is an odd number
* 17 is an odd number
* 1 + 7 = 8, although an even number, it symbolises infinity and eternity, and us #ActuallyAutistics13 is also special.
* A Prime
* An Odd
* A Fibonacci numberAnd depending on whom you ask:
* The 8th Fibonacci number
* The 7th Fibonacci numberIronically:
* The anniversary of my first romantic relationship was on: 1997-07-17. It was my first love who picked that, and she had no idea what my favourite numbers are.
* My height is 175 cm or 5'7.5" to 5'8.5" (depending on whom you ask).
* Favourite time of the day: 07:00 and 19:00 (7pm). 19 is the 8th Prime. (There's 8 again.)And I'm #OpenlyAutistic. ^_^

So, this is what's happening to me: #AutisticBurnout
It describes it as:
“Autistic burnout is a syndrome conceptualized as resulting from chronic life stress and a mismatch of expectations and abilities without adequate supports. It is characterized by pervasive, long-term (typically 3+ months) exhaustion, loss of function, and reduced tolerance to stimulus.” ~Raymaker et al, 2020Typically the Autistic person in question will still have multiple demands in their life that require cognitive resources, despite having little to no resources left to give. Life goes on, as they say.

Season 04 Episode 11 of Fringe featured the meeting of the two Agent Astrid Farnsworth, one an autistic and the other neurotypical.
This episode aired on 2012-02-04 and entitled “Making Angels”.
The autistic Agent Astrid Farnsworth came from the “Amber World” (the parallel world), and the NT Astrid is from the “Prime World” (our world basically).
The character is, I would say “basic” as far as portrayal of an autistic person. Some would say it's a stereotype. But I like her nonetheless because it was not exaggerated, and the focus was not on her autism instead it was about her many skills.
And in this episode, we saw through her that autistic people are humans too. That we have our own struggles, we do cry and feel emotions (contrary to the claims that we lack it), and we just want to live like everyone else.
---
The autistic Astrid was introduced in season 2 (2009–2010). The actress, Jasika Nicole, was praised for her performance of both the neurotypical and the autistic Agent Astrid.
How about you, what do you think of her character? How was the performance (specifically with autistic Astrid)?

This is a very good read for everyone, autistics and non-autistics, alike: “Why does masking autism contribute to burnout?” By Eloise Stark, an Autistic Ph.D. candidate from the University of Oxford, who was diagnosed at age 27.
---
“I am who I am, I’m autistic and proud, I’m different, and for the first time in my life, I’m okay with that.”
…
“Following the attack, I developed a recurrence of mental-health problems from my youth. I grew more and more unwell. I was anxious, obsessive, depressed, and began to have suicidal feelings. I was overwhelmed by the world, by just being, and didn’t know how to cope with it.”
…
“Masking autism wasn’t a sustainable or safe option. I was admitted to the hospital, yet every clinician disagreed on my diagnosis. Most remarked that they felt they were ‘missing something’.”
…
“‘All your life you have been masking autism.’”

For me, I think this is a very good video to pass as an introduction of sorts to family, friends, colleagues, who are not (yet) knowledgeable about us. Most especially to those who only (blindly) listen to doctors/professionals or to reputable (public) figures.

@Szilvia Absolutely not! Hans #Aspergers was basically a #Nazi and pretty much let non-asperges #autistics out to die while keeping the autistics classified as Aspergers. As well, functioning levels like #highfunctioning #lowfunctioning and Aspergers are now considered harmful by the #actuallyautistic community so I'm glad that we are moving away from that. #autisticadvocacy #neurodivergent

I as an #autistic find moving #ProfilePicture s and #emojis / #stickers, whatever they are, disturbing. Especially the latter ones; they are always in screaming bright colors.
Dunno do they the same for other #autistics?
And how it is for people with #epilepsy? As some might know, for instance, flashing lights can be a risk, if you are #epileptic.
So I started to wonder, is it really a must to use things that move in so many posts?

You can call me Mal. I'm a #GenX / #Millennial cusp, a #LateBloomer #lesbian 🌈 and have recently discovered my #LateDiagnosedAutism. I also have #adhd, #CPTSD, and a handful of other #MentalHealth issues and I'm currently still trying to recover from burnout due to Covid and learn how to function in the real world again. Learning how to accommodate myself has been a life changing experience. My long distance girlfriend is also autistic and it has been so beneficial to have someone who truly understands as a support person. Other things of note are that I'm a #leftist #feminist and believe in #IntersectionalFeminism, always work to be actively #AntiRacist, and believe mutual aid and building community is the best and only way for us all to survive late stage capitalism.
My #SpecialInterests include talking about and researching topics like #psychology, #trauma, anti-capitalism, and the communication differences between #autistics and #allistics.
For fun I like to play #WorldOfWarcraft and read the lore books. I've been playing since Cataclysm came out and my favorite characters are #AnduinWrynn, #VarokSaurfang, #Illidan, and #KaelthasSunstrider. My favorite class to play is a Demon Hunter and my favorite expansion was Legion. I also love the #DragonAge games, specifically the second one, the show #GameOfThrones, and frequently lose large chunks of time playing #thesims4. I am also currently hyperfixating on Taylor Swift's new album even though I have never liked her music before 😂
I live in a very rural, very conservative area so I'm really hoping to find other people like me, specifically other #lesbians, who I can connect with. So if any of this resonates with you, let's be mutuals 🌈💗
