Self-dx is important. Even if self-dx autistics don't ultimately meet medical criteria, self-dx provides a lost soul in an NT world with an explanation for their experiences, as well as a community to support them, often for the first time in their life ❤️

😖“The discovery of prenatal and neonatal molecular biomarkers has the potential to yield insights into ASD and facilitate early diagnosis,” What a load of crap. We know diagnosis is linked to symptoms and age of presentation. This will make no difference to diagnostic guidelines
John Lennon, Let it be: When I find myself in times of change, My autism speaks to me, I don't fucking like it, Let me be. Let me be, let me be, autism's a part of me, Whisper words don't shout, sensory sensitivity. dum dum dum 🎶🎵🎶
Lmao #autisticmemes
Over 50% of the articles presented autism as a danger or deficit. 35% of the articles talked about disability and vulnerability. The slant was negative in the usual suspects. journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.11…
📢New paper out on suicide risk / self-injury in autistic and non-autistic youth Important (and worrying) findings for youth mental health and guidelines for clinicians/researchers, a 🧵below Link to open-access paper: journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/13…
Today, bohemian rhapsody: Is this the real life, or just a diagnosis? Caught in a strange world, with unique neurology Open my eyes, look up to the skies, and seeeee I'm just a person, with a different kind of reality I'm just wired differently, from neuro-typical-ity 🎶🎵🎶
To the tune of jingle bells 🎶🎵🎶: Autism, autism, a way of life for some. They see the world so differently, but they're still second to none, oh, Autism, Autism, no noises or bright lights, these neurotypical fuckers want to take away our rights, oh!
Don't be fooled by the bots that I got, I'm still, I'm still Autie from the block. Used to have a little (sensory problems) but I've got a lot, no matter where I go, I know where I came from
Let's hope they do something worthwhile
Can someone coin a term for mental health services ignoring someone with serious mental health problems, suddenly panicking and being unnecessarily coercive then impulsively discharging them. It's becoming a thing!
A snapshot of just how broken the system is, failing #actuallyautistic people.

Today a minister claimed they are cutting waiting lists. independent.co.uk/news/health/au… That was a lie.
An amazing honors thesis defense today by Catarina. So grateful to be able to mentor insightful and engaged students. This is what keeps me excited about research!!
This kind of thing makes me furious because it implies that my busy-ness at work is independent from my relationships. I am busy often BECAUSE I’m keeping my word, making time for my colleagues and attending to how they feel.
