fun little autistic experiences that i have sometimes
in honour of finishing the autism assessment process and being told that I've basically confirmed everything they already knew :)
(disclaimer: not all of these are fun)
I want to make breakfast because I've been up for an hour and all I've eaten is medicine but I can't go in the kitchen because it smells of cat food
some dickhead just made fun of me and I'm so angry that I'm physically shaking but I'm in school and I can't have a meltdown so I'll just hit my legs really hard
I need to listen to Touch-Tone Telephone and jump around right now
strawberry-flavoured medicine has completely ruined the taste of strawberries for me
I don't know why I copied what you said I just did it automatically I'm so sorry
what do you mean you don't have a favourite word?? anyway mine is brackets
for the last time, I'm not angry, I'm just tired and have very little control over my face and voice
huh all my friends seem to really understand me and I actually have a lot in common with them ... oh wait they're autistic too aren't they
I accidentally left my weighted blanket at my grandparents' house and didn't realise until we got home and I am going to cry
I know what most of the Facial Expressions are supposed to mean when a neurotypical uses them but the thing is you are not using the Facial Expressions the way you have taught me they are meant to be used so I have no idea what you are feeling
screaming is fun actually
my shoes must be a full size too big because I need to be able to move my toes

#autism#the tism#i haven't got the official doctor's note saying “congratulations you're autistic” yet but who cares#we video-called the doctor guy and answered all his questions and at the end he was just like “ok cool I knew all of that”#and then I was like “yeah I knew that too. i've been self-diagnosed since i was 14”#good to know we're all in agreement#side note to anyone who thinks self diagnosis is bad:#i don't need the approval of a stranger to know things about myself
