At almost 40, I don't think I've ever seen or experienced anything more complex than family dynamics. If you're experiencing something with family that is hurting your heart, especially if it's making you feel isolated, know that you are not alone. ❤️❤️❤️

I want to be that person who breaks things down and explains things. Because I wish people did that for me more. Instead, we often assume people know what we mean when they may not. We use jargon and give steps that are vague. I hope to not do that.

It's not unusual for trauma survivors to feel like we're this "burden" to the people around us-- especially the people we love. We feel ashamed that we're so "high maintenance." We desperately try to be less of a "hassle." We're that drowning victim apologizing to the lifeguard.

Hello Twitter world! My supervisor has me worried that I won’t be able to recruit enough participants to write my thesis on autistic experiences of diagnostic overshadowing in physical healthcare, please help! 🙏 #ActuallyAutistic 👉tinyurl.com/AuCDOS

I am the kind of person who might break a lot of rules but as soon as someone tells me the right way to do something or the way to correct it, I probably won’t make that mistake again. Unless I am completely overwhelmed and learning all the rules is making it hard to remember.

If you’re upset with an autistic person and want them to apologise to you, you’ll have more success if you tell them why you’re upset instead of acting passive aggressively or saying “you know what you did”. We often see things differently and might not intuit how you’re feeling.

In therapy today I realised that most of the day to day anxiety I live with stems from uncertainty. Uncertainty over what other people are thinking, how to act in certain situations, what the outcome of certain things will be & not knowing what is expected of me. It’s draining.

You have a sensory profile that you aren’t aware of. We aren’t born with knowing what they are. Do you like to keep the curtains drawn? Do you find yourself ripping your clothes off when coming home? Do you massage yourself? Do you sweat when it’s cold? #ActuallyAutistic

if we’ve brought back global pandemics, titanic disasters, railroad strikes, a King of England and Russian coups, we should also get to bring back the parts of the 20th century where they had cocaine in the soda and a minimum wage earner could buy a family home

People don’t want to be rescued— they want to be supported. They want to be listened to. They don’t want to hear the bright side. They want to feel accepted in whatever state they’re in.

I used to have this fear. Anytime someone said someone was doing anything incorrectly, it triggered some deeply rooted trauma responses. It was bad at work. They would say at meetings that there were errors and I was like (!?!) — is that something I did? I feel this less.

Food for thought on Friday: 1. When someone wants something, nothing can stop them. When they don't, nothing can move them. 2. At the end of the day, make sure you believe in you. Because there will be days when you will be on your own.

To every non-autistic person, My autistic brain and I would like you to know: - I say what I mean. Don’t ever get upset over something you think I’ve implied. I don’t imply. - I care, I just show it differently. - I feel emotions, I’m just succinct in my expression of them.
