I don't know who needs to see this but forgetting & losing things excessively to the point of it having an extremely detrimental effect on your life is an example of a DISABILITY, not a cute or funny little quirk. ADHD is recognized as a disability for a reason.

Are you a ‘watch the same show over and over again’ autistic, or a ‘watch a show once and then consider it completed’ autistic?

I really need people to understand that abusers are secretive with their abuse. If you’re the type of person to call them out, they’re going to avoid you. Most importantly, they’ll even try to get you to like them by being sweet to their victims around others.

Am I the only one who's noticed that Autistic special interests only get positively discussed if they lead to a career? Special interests are still valuable, important, & necessary even if they don't lead to a career. My interests will never be a career, and that's okay!

The autistic urge to choose the most precise words when you speak - so there can be no confusion - only for some people to pay little attention to your words and pay more attention to your atypical facial expressions, tone and body language, and still end up misunderstanding you.

Homelessness isn’t caused by a lack of housing. It’s caused by the belief that shelter must be earned through labor or wealth.

People with chronic illness are often masters of “masking” What I mean by masking is hiding what we’re really going through or the symptoms we are currently feeling. We hide our symptoms behind smiles. We say “ I’m fine” even though we’re definitely not feeling fine. We…

The autistic experience of feeling, thinking about and processing things on a deeper level - even when you may appear nonchalant to other people.

Me: I'm autistic with a level 1 diagnosis. Them: You're probably ADHD. Autistic people don't speak as well as you. This really just happened. 🤦‍♀️ It's also a perfect example of how little autism is truly understood by the average person. #AutismAwarenessMonth

One of the hardest things about chronic illness is unpredictability. You can do everything “right” & still have a flare up You can manage your energy expenditure perfectly only to have your progress wiped out by something innocuous & unplanned Managing a baseline is hard work.

If you're socially "awkward", have a hard time making friends, have deep and intense interests that you can't stop talking about, have been called "extremely stubborn" about your opinions, and have intense sensory sensitivities... You may want to look into autism.

It took me over a decade to realize I was disabled Internalized ableism is no joke. It can lead us to push our bodies & deny our reality 🧵 about ableism, disability, covid caution and finding your voice We aren’t expendable. Activism is more important now than ever before /1

Them: You don't look autistic Me: You don't see it because my autism mostly affects me. I've spent most of my life painstakingly minimizing the impact it has on others... so now it has no effect on you at all, but my life is indescribably more difficult and exhausting
