Hollywood sells flattering lies. Unrealistic fantasies of wealth, power, breaking taboos… Nothing that screens ever showed me… not effing “reality” TV… prepared me for an autistic life. 🚨Content note: profanity, opinionated, disturbing images, really bad attitude … I call this one, “Promising Me Beautiful Lies: How Hollywood Failed My Autism.” Video (4:43, captioned for easier audio…

Many times throughout the day, I feel like I have to jump. I get huge balls of energy trapped inside and the best way to let them out is to jump. I think since jumping is like a whole-body activity, I can get quick bursts out... When it is socially appropriate for an adult woman to just jump around, which means very few places actually. I don't want to suppress the feeling. It makes it stronger. I think it is similar to holding a spring: the more you force it down, when it does come up, it springs back faster and harder. When I can't move my body how it feels is necessary, I usually do other things but they are not as satisfying and I don't feel like that particular energy burst has been "completed". Well, I am sure there are other ways I haven't thought of to control/manange this feeling. Anybody else deal with that in a better way than me just waiting to get home and doing it? I know I need more exercise, which I will get in a week or so now that it's warm and soccer season starts back. . [Image description: picture of two men's feet in shoes and socks in the air having jumped from the sand ground that reads, "Fellow Autists and other Neurodivergents: How do you keep yourself from jumping when the feeling arises?"] . #autismacceptance #autismawareness#autismawarness #loveneedsnowords#differentNotLess #stimming #jumping #actuallyautistic #jumpies #jumpy #celebrateautism #askanautistic #askingautistics #autistickidsrock #asdspectrum #autismadults #autismadult #adultautism #autisticadult #autisticadults#thisisautism #adultautistic #AdultWithAutism #AutismMom #autisticmom #blacksandautism #autisticBlackPride #blackandautistic #autismcommunity #autisticcommunity (at Montgomery County, Maryland) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bu1qhfcAjoZ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=184xbbdmfipgv

Autism, Love & My Friend Billy: A New Epic Myth
"Autism, Love & My Friend Billy: A New Epic Myth" In my autistic world… a friend is a precious thing... #ActuallyAutistic #Autistic #AdultAutistic #ADHD #AuDHD #SpokenWord #Poetry
In my autistic world… a friend is a precious thing. I can’t afford to judge that fragile treasure by status, education, wealth… or what they can do for me. Johnny Profane Âû, original illustration. NOTE: Some autistic & ADHD folks process reading better, some listening… some both at once. So I include a transcript, podcast, and “pretty” captioned video below.…

This squeezy rainbow ball looks out of this world! 🚀✨ Normally sold as kids toys, these mesh-covered balls are great for visual and tactile feedback. As you squeeze, you get rewarded with tonnes of multicoloured bubble-like protrusions from this groovy toy 👽 It works best if you have strong hands though! ☺️🤦♂️💪 If you have pathetic mouse paws like me it can tired your hand out quick when new🐀👋😪 -Fen 💜✨ #autism #asd #actuallyautistic #autisticbusiness #adultautistics #autisticadults #sensory #stim #stimmy #stimming #stimtoy #adhd #adultadhd #worktoy #desktoy #studying #fidget #fidgettoy #fidgeting #fidgetfingers #fingerfidget #neurodiverse #anxiety #did #mentalhealth #copingskills #recovery #ocd #ukstartup https://www.instagram.com/p/CFRgSrEBmu2/?igshid=1apsik7qctbe7

After I was diagnosed, it felt like my whole world was turned upside down...in a good way!

#StimPrideSunday - Fluffy Glitter putty!⠀ ☁️💗👌⠀ ⠀ This is my first experience with putty as a stim, rather than as a toy - it's more chill and habitual. 🙏💟⠀ ⠀ Fiddling with putty is easy to do with one hand whilst focusing on other things. ✌️🌈🌟⠀ ⠀ Some people find it aversive, because of the unusual texture, but others love it! 😁🥳⠀ ⠀ 👎or👍 - is Fluffy Putty a yay or a nay for you? ⠀ ⠀ #actuallyautistic #adultAutistic #oddlysatisfying #sillyputty #fluffyputty #disabilityrights #adhd #ocd #anxietystims #stimming #stimmy #bubblegumpink #pinkslime #glitterslime #fluffyslime #fidget #grownupstimming #autistic #asd#spd #sensory #latediagnosed #stim #musthave #fidgeting #fidgets https://www.instagram.com/p/CD8fi2whcWj/?igshid=jm1872thl9lm

Healing from trauma takes time 🌸✨💗 Whether you're traumatised from masking, shame, or the effort of managing life with invisible disabilities, we all have to take care of our mental health.🌈🧠 Being "different" can be hard, and people can treat you unfairly for it or be ignorant and misunderstanding. When you're forced to hide your uniqueness from a young age, it can cause long lasting damage.🌩️ It takes time, and being kind to ourselves, but it's worth it. You deserve to exist as your authentic self without shame or stigma. 🌱✨💗 Do what feels right for you and get to know your wonderful unique self!🙏 -Fen ✨💜 #traumarecovery #recovery #invisibledisability #healing #positivequotes #adultautistic #hsp #infp #sensitive #actuallyautistic #therapy #spoonie #chronic #ptsd #cptsd #unmasking #maskingasd #asd #asdfeels #mentalhealth #mentalillness #selflove #selfcare https://www.instagram.com/p/CFCCpj7BMyh/?igshid=1iqrfs1a80h1i
