Tell me your stories :)) I’d love to know more. My sister is three years younger and doesn’t have the same issues. As much as I want to leave my house, I couldn’t cross the road apne until I was 14 and I couldn’t take the train alone until I was 16, and even then on practiced routes. Did anyone else have struggles like this?

questioning culture is not telling your therapist when you’re upset, not because you’re one of those “fuck therapy” kids, but because you literally forget you’re upset because you’re having so much fun ranting

You see, I don't think I'm autistic, but having to interact with anyone that isn't on my same apparently very strange wavelength makes me feel like I'm playing a game but all the textures are missing and the keybinds are all messed up and the chat filter is messing up everything I try to say to my teammates and everyone speaks a language I've never even heard of.
and that's not exactly an allistic experience

i'm kind confused, and i think i got my answer but i just want to be sure...for the DSM-5 autism criteria, I know i have to meet all three subcategories, but within those categories, do i have to meet everything thats listed, for example:
Autism DSM-5 Criteria A: Subcategory 1
Tendency towards flat affect/monotone voice (meets)
Difficulty initiating conversations outside of interests (doesn't meet)
Difficulty with small talk (meets)
Difficulties with back and forth talk (meets)
Here I only meet 3 of the 5 examples listed in this specific subcategory, does that still mean I qualify, or am I now exempt from the diagnostic criteria because I don't meet all five?

Shout out to every autistic who mutters under their breath! And speaks to themselves! And blurts out random words or sounds! We don’t deserve to be called out in public and thats completely fine :))

questioning autism culture is feeling like you're always chill and there's not really much going on then asking your friends and getting "lmao you're actually anxious all the time how tf don't you feel that" right into your face

alright, so, i get insecure about my facial expressions and its kind of strange. When covid started, I got to wear a mask and conceal my mouth, and I really loved it. i honestly miss wearing a mask a lot. It’s not that I dont like my face or anything, i actually think i look pretty nice. It’s just my mouth i take issue with, I have a general disliking of people being able to see my expressions. i’ve been suspecting I have autism for a while now, and i’m hoping to bring it up with my psychiatrist at some point, so I was curious, is this something common for neurodivergent people? Or, anything similar?

I love spoiling my little meat suit.
Like yea, we’re feeling bad so I’ll slap some fancy (cheap-ass) skincare on ourselves so we feel cherished and taken care off. Who’s a good boy? Who’s a good boy, that’s right.
We are! :)
