Why does it feel like you're always in trouble, even when you haven't done anything wrong?
In this video, I break down the real difference between being in trouble and being in the wrong, and how autistic justice sensitivity, and all-or-nothing thinking, can blur the two together and create shame: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ofoFlc2Yd0c

Hi everyone, next week, we will be having the neurodivergent social connection at a special location! We will be going to Willow View Farms for some fall fun! Enjoy a walk around the farm, check out the apple orchard, and pet/feed the animals. Please note this is not a transit-accessible location, so you will need a ride to this location. Please also bring money if you want to purchase anything from the farm.
Time: Wednesday, October 14th, from 1 to 4 p.m.
The group is for everyone ages 19 and older.

URGENT. PLEASE BOOST FOR ME!
As many of you know I'm recovering from recent surgeries and complications, and and also still dealing with after effects of three day migraine and a fibro flare. I'm unable to cook for myself currently, and have run out of easy meals to keep me going. As a disabled, chronically ill person who lives under the poverty line it would be much appreciated if you could help me reach my $80 goal so I can get a few more nutritious meals for the next few days as I continue my recovery(this goal will get me two meals a day for 6 days). Thank you so much. I appreciate you all♥️EDIT: only $55 to go to meet my goal!

Gestern. Es war noch nicht mal 8 Uhr morgens und ich hatte schon fünf Dinge vergessen, drei Sachen verlegt und war maximal genervt von diesem Gehirn, mit dem ich den ganzen Tag arbeiten musste.

This is one of the most important things I've ever written.
Psychotherapy Networker has published their September/October 2026 Issue: Inside the ADHD and AuDHD Experience
My piece, co-authored with Donna Henderson, is on helping parents with neurodivergent kids and what well-meaning therapists sometimes get wrong.
Read it here: https://www.psychotherapynetworker.org/article/september-october-2026-digital-issue/

"Who needs labels anyway?" sounds progressive, but isn't.
A 'label' can give people language for their experiences, a basis for organising, and access to a community.
The interesting question - I think - isn't whether we have categories or not (we do. Ask any librarian or linguist).
It's who gets to make and use the categories... and for what purpose.

Osu game automatically censors "autistic" as an assumed insult.
This is ableist - autistic is something we use to describe ourselves.
I have sent a protest email and evaded the restriction using https://lingojam.com/FancyTextGenerator

I spent 14 years receiving NHS funded mental health treatment, being consistently misdiagnosed as having Generalised Anxiety Disorder and Depression. Then I had a breakdown. Then I got diagnosed as ADHD. Ta-dah! Depression gone, anxiety reduced, mental health has never been better. Earlier diagnosis would have saved thousands in NHS treatment and boosted tax revenue. But ADHD and Autism are over diagnosed? #ADHD #Autism #Neurodivergent #Neurodiverse

Today's mood: Rage
Rage at government reports saying that labels are unhelpful. Rage at playing down symptoms just to cut waiting lists. Rage at the lack of government support for people post-diagnosis. And rage at over-simplified headlines that push a narrative that some people are just "making it all up."
