i am rebloging this because its so so annoying when ppl don't understand that it affects my entire LIFE.
"Not everything is about your autism."
Actually it is. My autism effects:
How I see the world, including light sensitivity
How I interact with the world, including difficulties with social interaction, speech difficulties and processing disorders
How I feel the world around me, including hyposensitivity or hypersensitivity to temperature, pain, or stimuli as well as proprioception which can make it difficult for me to physically navigate the world
How I feel my body, including interoception which can lead to missed meals, dehydration, and even urinary urgency (which is a problem just by itself) because I don't notice the signals my body gives
How I relate to those around me, due to my alexithymia, so often I feel nothing or can not work through the bodily sensations that indicate emotions.
How I cope with the world, including needing to stim, escape noises others may not hear, or requiring accommodations to help me survive an "average" day
How I rest after a normal day, including delayed sleep onset, reduced melatonin and increased cortisol, making getting to sleep a 2 hour long endeavour and staying asleep a task unto itself
So yes.
This is all about my autism.
sorry about how MESSY it is i did it on my computer, not phone, also credits to nuggts ( @_f.ck.0ff_ on tiktok) as i used their picrew in this
{transcript: Atlas , 14 he/it. Best stim is meowing. favorite autistic characters are Mable Pines from gravity falls and Twyla Boogeyman from monster high. Biggest challenge is being semi-verbal. Biggest talent is that I can identify cat breeds. special interest facts, 1 cats follow humans when they see them as their mom. 2 cats purr on you to heal you, and their purr can heal themself too! what I want allistics to know it i just need support, i am who i am}

Important Announcement:
April Fools Day (April 1) is one week away. To that end, I just want it known now, well before the day, that this blog will NOT be posting any jump scares, fake announcements, freak-out posts, fake hackings, fake emergencies, fake news, and “gotcha!” stuff on April Fools Day. We’re staying safe and chill around here.
I’m honestly not into April Fools Day, really, unless the jokes are obvious and silly–like Rickrolls and Dad Jokes. Rickrolls and Dad Jokes are just traditional.
i am a silly autistic disabled man idk what else to say
