When I give a lot of information, it's oversharing, but a neurotypical does and "it's a long story."

i’m very curious to see if i am not the only one who experiences this as an autistic person…

Dear fellow autistics, would you say you experience some form of jealousy in regards to your special interest? (e.g you find yourself getting jealous when someone has the same spin as you, they seemingly know more about it, etc etc.)

Please only vote if you are autistic (self-dx welcome as always), but non-autistics may reblog

do your neurodivergent f/os have any favorite stims or stim toys? current hyperfixations or special interests? imagine them getting all excited about what they like and gushing to you about it!

they're all autistic kiddos!!

autism has no look.

we were born autsitic, and we will die autistic.

being an undiagnosed autistic child was very hard on us. shout out to the autistic kids, teens and adults.

As an autistic Australian who is also part of the LGBTQ+ community (and a massive fan of Chloe Hayden even before the show), I fucking love Heartbreak High. The representation of all different aspects and identities is so well done.

so when spider-man is hyper sensitive to noises and can feel the smallest changes around him and has super quick reflexes it’s a “superpower” but when i, an autistic person-

I feel like the internet ended up trivializing autism because we see so many autistics that are great at communicating, at articulating themselves, at handling situations, but most autists can't do that and this makes me, an autist, feel ashamed of saying "I'm sorry, I didn't get it at all probably bc I'm autistic please help me" because so many people think autism is barely a disability. Everyday I have struggles relating to being autistic, and I'm not even that disabled, there's so many autists with much more difficulties and struggles pertaining to autism than me, imagine how they feel, they're barely given a voice

my memory is getting quite bad lately…

I’m barely remembering words, which I have noticed are happening a lot more frequently than it used to. Before, I’d lose words maybe, a few times a month and now it’s 2-4 times each week. I’m terrified that one day I may wake up and not remember a damn thing… which may sound overdramatic, but christ it is such an unbearable and quite a frightening feeling to have.

I’ve lost my phone four times today, forgot whether I fed my cat, didn’t remember to eat breakfast and had to scour my calendar to make sure I haven’t missed any appointments because I cannot trust my own mind.

But, alas, adhd is just “quirky”, a trend and something everyone wants to have nowadays/s
