"___ doesn't make you autistic!"
You're right, individual traits don't make someone autistic. It's the combination of several traits that make them autistic.
Saying something is an autistic trait is not saying it can't exist outside of autism, but rather that it is a common trait among those with autism.
It's the same with all neurodivergency. It's not the individual traits that make someone have bipolar disorder or DID or Depression. It's the combination of them.
And if we start looking at it this way, we can all have a better understanding of how these things operate in relation to each other

My brain: Am anxious, please mute the world.
Me: *puts on my noise-cancelling headphones*
Also my brain: Too quiet, please give back sound.
Me: *internal screaming*

Really tired of everyone acting like they have these super active sex lives. It's like it's a joke made by Neurotypicals to fucking have another excuse to mock autistics, because that's like their entire life mission, just find excuses to abuse anyone seen as weird

Dear Grocery Stores,
Please stop changing the layout of your store. I understand that neurotypicals like to “change things up” every once and a while but if your store has had the exact same layout and look for 10+ years please don’t change it.
This is so confusing and stressful for so many people including my autistic self, my stroke survivor mother, my elderly grandmother, and many other customers I overheard talking while we walked through the store.
Sincerely,
A very stressed out autistic that’s still recovering from her extremely stressful and upsetting trip to Walmart

times I should’ve realized I’m autistic part 1
My city holds this thing every year in October called scream fest. When I heard the name of it, I immediately thought that this “scream fest” was basically you go to downtown, you sign up, and everyone takes turns screaming into a mic. I thought it was like,, whoever screamed the loudest would win or whatever. I remember thinking “thats such a stupid event. who would wanna go to that?” and then years later I was informed that scream fest was a halloween carnival and not in fact a screaming contest. taking things literally..... autism moment.

I hate those moments where you don't even realize that you have overloaded yourself. You just suddenly feel this deep, irritable rage like you could scream at any moment like every little thing starts to feel horrible and then you think back and your like Oh yeah, I guess I did do too much today or I guess my environment was pretty loud and overstimulating. Like, I'm just having sensory overload. Good to know. I swear it's sneaks up on you sometimes.
