I hate my shitty anxiety/depression. Had a great weekend and came back to my residence and started crying. Maybe because it was over? And…cuz sometimes I dread coming back? Wow. My brain really IS fucked UP. I need a hug and a chocolate bar. 🤣🥲😮‍💨😪🤕🧠⛈️😢

Fuck "mild Autism." Fuck "high-functioning" vs "low functioning." Those of us who have a voice have the responsibility to use it. It's exhausting to the last drop. But if we don't speak up for ourselves and other Autists/neurodivergent peeps, we are all fucked. Because no one else will.

This is what autistiphobia looks like. Real publications making up fake diagnostic categories in order to further the Autism Industry’s desire of extracting profit from our bodies. Divide & conquer.

What’s Behind the Rise in Mild Autism?

The number of people with the condition has increased rapidly in recent decades. Some researchers and clinicians worry that many patients have been wrongly diagnosed.
