#to other autistic people

LIVE

wondering if i’ll ever be able to be close enough to someone to actually fall in love with them haha. i’m going to be alone forever babe. fuck my autism and fuck my life.

howdy folks

hi! i have ASD and i’m looking to make some friends who have it as well. is there anyone out there who plays video games like don’t starve together, overwatch, or paladins? cus we can play together :-) if not, we can just chat! hit me up fellas. i can even make a groupchat with people who are comfortable enough to be in it.

flapping

when I was younger I was bullied for flapping my arms and it really got to me. it was to the point where I forced myself to stop even though it caused me anxiety and a little bit of sadness. did anyone stop stimming in major ways, and instead developed extreme anxiety? i’m trying to figure out why anxiety around people developed literally RIGHT after I stopped stimming by flapping my arms. it was to the point where my therapist thought I had selective MUTISM and not ASD. so, did anyone else go through this?

reading a bunch of autistic posts and i’m on the verge of crying. i’m so glad i can finally relate to people.

Sooo i went to my drivers test today. And umm.. i failed it. I started crying afterwards. I also had a drivers lesson before my drivers test. We also had to answer 1-3 questions which i failed two of them. I feel terrible about myself. I guess next time im going for a drivers test i’m not going to take a lesson before my actual test. I’m unable to drive for too long at a time. I can usually drive up to 30 minutes before getting really tired… I also didn’t tell the person whom i was driving with that i’m autistic. Should i tell him that next time?

Have anybody else here failed their drivers test and how did u cope with it? I feel really bad about it and i can’t get it out of my mind.

That autistic feel…. Lol but seriously these food separators are great!

I do that too. But i don’t have food seperators like that. So i just put the food as far away from each other as possible. I don’t really like when my salad get’s mixed with other kinds of (warm) sauces on my plate, i have nothing against it if i put it on myself.

So it’s kinda fun to look at my familys plate vs mine. Bc they aren’t bothered by it at all.. and i’m like ‘no no go away!’ almost everytime my food touch each other. If the food cold has touched the warm food i usually wont eat it. So my parents usually tell me i put too much food on my plate.

Damn i’m stressed.. i have my drivers test in 9 days and there are many things which i need to memorize. On top of that i also i have a 5-6 page assigment to write in danish-history… plus i need to produce a short film in media studies for an exam. We also need to film outside of school… It all just feels so exhausting. It feels almost impossible to get through. I’m so afraid of failing my drivers test.

I also started high school and the days are really long. Thats why i haven’t posted.. i just feel way too drained of energy.

Question: How do you as an autistic person show affection? We all have our different ways of showing affection. Some of it may not be the (neurotypical) traditional way of showing love.

Answer: I occasionally hug people but not a lot. I’m not very affectionate. Sometimes getting hugged, cuddled or embraced in a hug (if that makes sense…) feels like a cage to me. Idk why but it makes me uncomfterable.

Wby you? How do you feel about affection from others? Or how do you show affection?

(I’m sorry i haven’t been updating much. But i just started in high school… and im very tired when i come home. But luckily its an all autistic class.. so we’re all autistic in that class)

I am exhausted, stressed, and burned out. Half of my hair fell out and I look grey. Not fun 2020.

Hey guys I really want a tattoo to represent my autism and was wondering if you guys had any suggestions?? This is what I’m leaning for (I want it to be simple)
