I hate my Autistic mother. She's one of the most unbearable, self-absorbed people on Earth. She has no concept of other people's thoughts and feelings, and still slams doors at the age of 57. Every time I ask her something or speak to her, she has a massive tantrum and argues.
Semi-Verbal Autistic 🌈

Autism is my painful special interest, I'm a L2 semi-verbal autistic 90s baby with a "Greta Thunberg complex" regarding the autism industry. ♿🩼♾️ She/Her. UK. Underclass, underprivileged Autistic.
"The unprecedented demand prompted NHS England to inject an additional £10 million into extending clinic hours and increasing capacity to process and treat the extra men coming forward." But no extra funding or capacity for Autism recognition, or female conditions like endo? 😡 The favouritism.
The same media that celebrates increasing assessments of prostate cancer, bemoan the increasing diagnosis of autism and dismiss it as "trendy". The double standards are disgusting. #Autphobia
this fun little quiz made me realise that the AQ50 has the same amount of epistemic validity as MBTI and yet MBTI is treated as pseudo-science while the AQ50 is treated as the Word of God 🖕🏼 half of this quiz is literally in the AQ50!
Autistic adults don't exist. The NHS said so. Any adult who claims to be Autistic is a liar. Any adult who claims to be diagnosed by the NHS is a liar. The NHS said Autistics don't exist.
I'm tired of living. This world doesn't fit me. I have nothing to do anymore. My fixations are finished. My spirit is broken. Nobody understands me. Nobody cares. I am invisible and alone.
Life with autism is impossible and only killing myself can cure it.
Why doesn't my life matter? Because only bourgeois lives matter. I have no value, so I don't get a real autism process. #ActuallyAutistic
There's no help for underclass Autistic girls. There's no justice for survivors of NHS and school abuse. I am silenced, ignored, demonized. #autism #ActuallyAutistic
Why does nobody care that I'm just living in my bedroom, waiting for death?
Bourgeois Autistics owe me a free diagnostic process. 🤲🏼 I'm tired of their fake solidarity. Open your purse, enter my life, give me an expert.
This world doesn't fit me and the only cure is suicide.
The most devastating part of being an Autistic adult is discovering that there is no scientific way of diagnosing autism. A neurotype that is desperate for a methodical process, cannot find one because it doesn't exist. The psych industry is incapable of science.
The wrongness horrors are unbearable. I hate this world.
From 2018-2022 I went through a process of Autistic healing. I had come to terms with who I am, I'd found my community/tribe, people understood my struggles, and I was in the best mental health ever. The NHS reversed all of my healing and now I'm in a worse place than when I started!
Am I the only underclass person on the internet? Where are my people who have never been in employment, always been on disability, live in rented accommodation with no family or friends?
dear neurocolonized Autistics and allistic supremacists:
Conservatives don't get it. Progressives don't get it. Literally nobody wants to acknowledge the real social impairments of autism, LMFAO.
Things that are not a social impairment: - avoiding eye contact - info dumping a SPIN - stimming Things that ARE a social impairment: - being unable to socialise 🤦🏼♀️ This is so obvious and yet NOBODY understands it! #autism #Autistic #ActuallyAutistic

I grew up reading etymology dictionaries so I construct concepts based upon that logic. Re: "profound autism", I am technically one of the most "profoundly Autistic" people on the planet but neither faction wants to acknowledge my Autistic existence. Isn't that funny? 😂
A core aspect of autism is being unable to provide social responses. I have *no social imagination*. Nothing happens in my brain when people talk to me. So why do so many Autistics get mad when I don't reply to them? Do I have to explain autism to Autistics?
The psych industry only incarcerates or ignores the underclass Autistics. Our social value is too low to have diagnostic resources wasted on us. Diagnosis is a bourgeois ornamentation of higher class Autistics.
Bourgeois Autistics will always defend their own interests at the expense of me. I cannot find solidarity among the neurocolonized but I can't find other underclass Autistics either. Why am I a group of one? 💔
Life is unbearably long. I woke up today once again feeling disappointed that I didn't perish in my sleep. I'm tired of waking up to this planet that I don't belong to. I'm tired of being excluded from the Human race by their behaviours, institutions and fundamental characteristics.
The same people who believe in ACAB cannot see that the psych industry is the same un-reformable violence. Autistic clinicians are the "good cops" trying to fix a leviathan system that is fundamentally violent.
The only way to make "reform" a possibility in the psych industry is if allistics were systematically banned from working in it. Unfortunately that's not possible. So they will always use the industry to populate it with themselves, enact violence and satisfy their supremacist egos.
My life is proof that the psych industry doesn't care about supporting people. It's basic irrefutable logic. A society that cares, would be there for me. So where are they? It's because they don't care.
The psych industry cannot be reformed for the same reason that cops can't be reformed. The purpose of the psych industry is leviathan violence: to control, incarcerate, punish and eradicate NDs. It's also driven by profit and the desire of neurotypicals to aggrandize themselves.
My Housing Association cuts the grass multiple times a year and so I'm being gassed in my bedroom via the petrol smell. It makes me feel nauseous and lightheaded. And the noise of the cutter is so loud! I'm tired of ableist violations. This is sensory assault.
