My fantasy mental health treatment is where I go live somewhere for four months where they control my schedule so that I am regularly eating, exercising, and sleeping, but that I also have plenty of free time and am not forced to do psychotherapy until I get some semblance of stability back. Basically going to the seaside to recover from illness. Unfortunately that's probably only available to rich people.

Me at 10pm :: I should reorganize my Simply Plural folders entirely because it's only gonna take an hour (or two at tops)

Me at 2:44am :: I am almost halfway done :)

i love being in this fandom. everyone's out here writing essays and posting brilliant analysis and i'm just sitting in the corner, head empty, teary-eyed and absorbing media like a mossy little sponge.

In my attempts to seek help, I am only misinterpreted.

What if I need help keeping up with daily tasks ?

What if I need help filling out forms ?

What if I need help understanding social cues ?

What if I need help vocalizing my concerns ?

What if I need help asking for help ?

When I'm about as legible as the adults on Charlie Brown.

Maybe instead of being written off as bad,

Maybe I need HELP

Maybe I need SUPPORT

Maybe I need PATIENCE

Yet there's no support,

"You already made it this far without help"

I'm just too normal to receive help

i've tried for years to google autism social and support groups near me for adults. not kids or their parents. I found one. but it says they meet Wednesday evenings when I work so I ignored it. today my friend who live in another country tried to help by sending me the link to it. I told her I saw it before but can't make it. she suggested I email the provided email to as if there's any other way to meet outside the designated meeting times. turns out their website seems outdated and the email isn't in service. so I sent an email to the main website email (the website is a messy collection of autism resources mainly for kids and parents) so i'll have to wait to see if they respond on this one. but i'm not hopeful. something tells me the group might not exist anymore. it's not marked on their scheduled events list and the only place they seem active is facebook, which doesn't seem to mention the group at all (at least in the ~year long amount of stuff I scrolled through)

WHY is it so hard to find anything for adults?! why is it so hard to make friends near me! everyone yells at me to join a club or group, but why are they so difficult to find and participate in!

TopSkills Thursday: Part 4

This week, in the executive dysfunction series, we’ll look more closely at an important area, managing finances. As always, these are ideas, and they may not work for you. Hopefully, they’ll spark some thoughts of your own. Whichever is the case, I hope you’ll at least be inspired to continue your search for solutions. Financial management is a hard topic to write about. Lest anyone think I…

I Have Eidetic & Photographic Memory: Super Charged Subliminal

[casual-eumetazoa]

I feel like people have also pushed the social model of disability as the only valid model for explaining autism so much that it became just straight up misinformation. Like, listening to some autistic people on tiktok, it's like you can accommodate autism to such an extent that it stops being a disability or even a problem whatsoever. And maybe for some specific combination of traits this is true, but my guess is that it's quite rare. For most people who meet the current diagnostic criteria, autism would disable them in any context, especially since it is almost always comorbid with at least one other thing if not multiple, such as anxiety, depression, PTSD, connective tissue disorders, epilepsy, ADHD, intellectual disability, dyslexia/dyscalculia/dyspraxia, auditory processing disorder... the list goes on.

Point is, of course accommodations, support, and a good environment can eliminate a lot of negative aspects of autism - but most autistic people are disabled by our neurotype and it cannot be accommodated out of existence. Accommodations can drastically improve our quality of life, but not make us function on the exact same level as neurotypical people. And because activist circles and tiktok and so on have an overrepresentation of people whose combination of traits allows them to function on a relatively normative level, people forget just how many struggles you can have, even as a low support person. Like some people think that needing help with filing paperwork or keeping your house clean is high support. That's not even mid support imho, that's something the vast majority of low support autistic people would benefit from. I'm mid support and I need help with tying my shoelaces and preparing simple meals - and I have a master's degree and no learning/intellectual disabilities.

Two things can be true at once. Yes, autism is a natural variation of brain types and we deserve the same rights and dignity as everyone else. Many of us would not want to be "cured" of autism and it is a part of us. Also, yes, it disables us, and limits our functioning, and can be (and is, for many people), a very negative experience, especially in the current world. It's not either or, it's not black or white. It is a complex neurodevelopmental difference that doesn't just boil down to being sensitive and passionate. And it does suck sometimes, maybe even a lot of times. Abled people should learn to respect us and our wishes and needs without either comparing autism to cancer or sugarcoating our experiences.

the way people online talk about autism is getting really weird, like do they know that neurotypicals still have interests? that someone being passionate about a hobby doesn't mean they're autistic? you guys know that right

Look, I feel like you can only be good at my job and not burn out if you have ADHD. The director of my department just sent out an email that was like: We can no longer grant extensions on things so instead, everyone who is bad at getting things in on time, is getting mandatory body doubling for that. Also, we will have drop in sessions for the rest of y'all. Executive function is hard. There are ADHD friendly jobs. They exist, aparently, and I have one.
