Ed culture is having a relapse and knowing if you'll tell someone they could help you get out of it but feeling like if you do you're just an attention seeker and imposter and don't ACTUALLY have an ed, and also you still want to lose weight and if you tell someone you won't lose weight.

Review of I Used to be Famous (2022)
I Used to be Famous is a comedy drama movie directed by Eddie Sternberg, about a former boyband star trying to regain his former success and befriending Stevie, a young autistic drummer.
Regarding autistic traits, Stevie speaks with a somewhat flat effect, is often blunt and speaks matter-of-factly. He gets overwhelmed by sudden loud noises and stressful situations like arguments. The drumming itself acts as a sensory tool at times, and a way to express emotion. Stevie is a talented drummer, but not a savant like is commonly portrayed in autistic characters. I found that it certainly made a change for a male autistic character to have creative rather than STEM-based special interest.
Stevie's screentime isn't devoted to seemingly running of a checklist of symptoms. He feels like a 3 dimensional character, whose autism is relevant to the plot but not in an obnoxious way or to portray him as a burden or something to gawk at.
What makes a very welcome change is that Leo Long, who plays the drummer Stevie, is autistic, and I think it really lends itself well to the depth and authenticity of his character. He is also mixed race (I think white and East Asian but there isn’t any information out there about Leo’s parents), which is a well-needed change from the inundation of white neurodivergent characters.
Vince (the protagonist) and Stevie's platonic relationship is very believable and heartwarming. Vince is a supportive character from the start - he never asks probing questions about Stevie's disability or tries to make him "normal" - and is never rude or ignorant, unlike many pieces of media when an autistic friend or family member is little more than a plot tool for the protagonist to learn and become a better person (e.g. Rain Man, Music).
There is also a well-executed plot thread regarding the relationship between Stevie and his mum Amber. Amber is protective of her son without being an "autism mom". It is obvious she truly loves him and doesn't consider him a faulty version of an imaginary "perfect" neurotypical child.
I suppose one of my very few nitpicks would be that Stevie's sensory processing issues only seem to be shown early on in the plot. It would have been interesting to see any tools like earplugs or other methods of stimming come into us at other points.
Overall, I'd definitely recommend I Used to be Famous in terms of autistic representation - a feel-good movie that isn’t inspiration porn. It's not a film that, on its own, I'd suggest for neurotypical viewers to watch to learn more about being autistic - but to have an autistic character, played by an autistic actor, with a supportive friend and parent is a delight to watch and a welcome step in the right direction.
Trigger warnings for: brief instances of ableism (condemned by the narrative), terminal illness (I think implied cancer) and death of a family member, alcohol use, and a brief but intense scene of violence.
