#Autizzy

I hate hate hate hate HATE that most of the time when I’m searching for info on autism the results always regard autistic children and are written by allistic adults for allistic parents who hate autistic children

Like I’m just going “hehe hey google do other autistic people sensory seek in carbonated drinks” and Google is like “DUMB STUPID LITTLE AUTISTIC BABIES REALLY LIKE DRINKING DUMB STUPID LITTLE AUTISTIC DRINKS LIKE SPRITE AND COKE BECAUSE THEY’RE DUMB STUPID LITTLE AUTISTIC BABIES!!!!!”

Best friend. The autistic kids you’re writing about so unkindly are going to become adults. And they’re going to be unhappy when they read that shit.

Black Autistic Culture is people not believing you're autistic while also critiquing you on everything you said that was "disrespectful" and "rude" as well as telling you to learn how to talk right.

Hate that the thought of using AAC is still in a way frown upon.

No matter how much more is talked about and seen, the general public isn’t aware and open to it.

Like AAC is something only really know if disabled, have family member that disabled, or work with disabled people.

If was to walk up to one of my teachers and talking about AAC, they would look at me like was crazy. Because most likely doesn’t know what it. Or what used for. Or how work. Or why needed.

If was to actually use AAC like need, would be viewed as disrespectful. Which isn’t much because already seen that way to a good amount but…

Being black most definitely plays a role, even if most won’t admit. Black people see more things as disrespectful then probably should, especially if older. The concept isn’t something they really know and they extremely value spoken language. They values correct grammar and using your voice and AAC for me isn’t either of those. It’s not my body voice and I can’t always use correct grammar.

Even if don’t contribute race into why AAC frowned upon. AAC is used by those with disabilities, the public isn’t fully okay with people being disabled. With them needing more help.

So even if race wasn’t problem, using AAC still wouldn’t be okay to them

You know why I have to be very careful about how I stim in public?

Because of what happened to Jordan Neely.

I’m a Black, autistic, mentally ill person, and one of my fears is that if I’m too obvious with my stimming in public, someone might call the police on me—or just outright kill me.

Me after sprinkling autism traits into my characters just so I can relate to them 💀

[pharoahkingkiller]

If you know you have ARFID and you're not taking prenatal vitamins walk don't run tbh. Like idc what brand you use but for real too many autistic people are walking around malnourished and just raw dogging reality like your body isn't shutting down. Chronic anemia leads to organ failure. Vitamin d deficiencies can lead to schizophrenia.

If you feel like your body is shutting down it is.

I've come to the realization that I like to talk but I don't like talking to people. When I talk to people, especially new people, I never know what to expect but talking to myself is so simple and stress free. Now if only people would stop assuming that I'm crazy.

Self Diagnosis Talk.

What I find absolutely crazy is how I found out I was autistic.

It literally was Donatello from ROTTMNT…. 💀

So after I heard that Donnie was autistic coded I was like oh that’s pretty neat, and since I liked ROTTMNT so much ( It was my special interest but I didn’t know that for a while ) I wanted to make headcanons of it like I do with every show I obsess over.

I started searching up autistic traits so I could associate that with Donnie and stuff.

But in the middle of watching a really good and informative autistic person explain some traits that autistic people have that not many know of-

I was like….. Hold up.

Why do I relate to these?

At first i just thought, “Well some allistic ( I didn’t know what that was at first but I’m saying that ) people go through that, just not as much as autistic folks. So there’s no way I could have autism.”

But then I keep searching up and looking into more neurodivergent stuff, and I keep relating to the things that are said to be signs/traits of autism.

So then I got skeptical.

To make this rant shorter, I f**ked around and and found out I had autism. 👍🏽

And this was during the winter/winter break/Christmas/probably November ig.

I can’t tell anyone though because the people I’m close to are ableist. I found that out the hard way.

And now I’m here sharing it with the world. Some of the world.

Shout out to Donatello Hamato from Rise Of The Teenage Mutant Turtles for making me come to such an awesome realization that really makes me make sense of why I do the things I do.

🐢♾️!!

call me 0.4 to 0.7 µm because I’m visibly on the spectrum

[anentitee]

no more fighting stereotypes yes i am your worst fear embodied

[moonssugar]

we gotta talk about the intrinsic hatred neurotypicals have for neurodivergent people particularly when they dont know theyre neurodivergent but automatically know they hate something about them. and also how they acquire that hatred so quickly during childhood and now that hatred grows when the neurodivergent person has other attributes society hates
