I hate the idea that weird is bad. Like no actually I think being weird and funky and distinctively your own person is pretty cool.

PSA because I have gotten this more and more as service dog awareness has gotten more and more in the past couple years.

I find this mostly to be a problem in like queer disabled spaces. I run into the problem of people, wanting to respect my service dog so much that they don’t really respect me..(?) like they’re visibly like walking on eggshells whenever they’re near me. No one sits next to me or talks to me. I think in an attempt to not “offend me” by distracting my dog when they don’t even know me.

I don’t know if this will go for all handlers, but it goes for everyone I’ve talked to. You will be fine around a service dog handler if you were not purposely trying to distract it. If you’re doing something just cause like fidgeting or somethingand the dog gets distracted that’s on the handler and the dogs training. It’s not your fault, and stop apologizing for it. It gets quite annoying after a while.

TLDR a treat service dog handlers like people and like the dog isn’t there.

being an autistic adult is doing a big adult task and then needing to sleep the rest of the day

“so what are you hyperfixated on these days” my mom said to me in the car today, i sigh sadly, looking out the window and leaning on my hand.

“you don’t have to tell me but-“

“harry potter.” i cut her off sadly.

and then i proceeded to tell her about the marauders at 8 in the morning.

"I have autism."

"Are you diagnosed?"

"Not yet."

"You're not autistic."

??? Like do I just stop having the disorder until I'm diagnosed???

I wanna test a thing-

Before casting the vote read:

- aromatic spectrum and/or asexual spectrum count

-comorbid neurodivergencies can exist, answer is based on whether or not ASD is one of them.

-share for larger range!

-my apologies if I forgot something 🙏

Everytime I ask someone which character I’d be in Saiki they always say Saiki or Kaidou (although Kaidou with more frequency) and honestly what a round about way of calling me autistic.

Ice Age: The (autism) Meltdown

[silly-centipede]

A lot of disability experiences can overlap and like I end up having three different explanations for why I can't do something

Take driving for example:

My Autism causes me developmental delays

My physical issues causes me pain in stuff like pushing down the peddle

My OCD causes me immense distress that can distract me

Honestly like, reblog with your similar experiences. Like what's something you struggle with because of multiple different issues

i’ve been officially diagnosed with autism and adhd !!!!!!!!! 🎉🎉🎉

[auti-starshine]

Taking a hot bath so i can sit because im having a bad pain flare up.

Wearing a bra and boxers because my dysphoria is bad while in said bath.

Having a shower cap on so my hair doesn’t get wet because that will overstimulate me.

Boy howdy do I love being disabled, trans, and autistic :D /sar
