Social interaction
It has always been hard for me to fit in anywhere, in any group. In the beginning I thought maybe it's just all me, but then over time I've realized it's more complex than that. It's bigger than me or even one person. I don't know what all the factors are, but I've always struggled with finding... read more

Pains
I'm so sick of these physical pains. Every little thing hurts. To sensitive for TV or tiny noises. To ugh groggy to get outta bed and lack energy to do it. Like cmon just let me live life not be trapped in my own body.

Finding peace in myself
My biggest hurdle was understanding what friendship means for other people. For me, it's really intense and powerful. Pretty much on the same level as romance. Even now that I understand more perspectives from a variety of people, my own tendencies are still there. I guess that just means I'm more... read more

I hate my autism
I hate my autism. I hate how much I struggle with things that others don't. I hate that people treat me so different. I hate that some people are weird when they find out I'm autistic

I love my autistic self
So it’s Autism Acceptance Month, apparently. Ausome. (See what I did there? Also, I’m not calling it ‘Awareness Month’, because it’s autism, Karen, not the speed limit). I’ll let you into a secret: some of us are weird. And not just ‘I like Brussels sprouts’ weird. Like, super weird.... read more

This may sound ridiculous...
... but I'm wondering if anyone else feels "too niche" to be compatible with anyone? Or that it's just not likely you'll ever meet anyone who can accept all of you? I thought polyamory was my solution but I honestly don't know anymore. I can't be the only one who feels like this. Like they just... (edited) read more

Self-Diagnosed Autism: Is It a Valid Diagnosis?
Self-diagnosed autism is controversial. Some in the autism community feel it’s a slippery slope to misdiagnosis, dilution of resources, and silencing of the “true” autistic voice. DSM–5 criteria for autism are concentrated in two core areas: Persistent deficits in social interactions and... read more
