April is #AutismAcceptanceMonth , we are done with #AutismAwarenessDay (April 2nd) because they're all aware already but few accepts #Autistics .
Right now I can not imagine to go to a person and let me tested for #autism. I don’t feel ready to get a „positive“ result. Also this kind of test situation..
But I can imagine to face that maybe later in life. When I figured it out myself a bit more first. Maybe. I don’t know.
How is your opinion about getting a diagnosis?
If you got one: Did it help you? Did it bring negative effects for you?
If you don’t: I would love to hear your thoughts, too.
Can you help us out?
It's May, and we need help to make budget. Going to try to budget for $600. Gonna have to get to the clinic a couple of times and schedule to get my teeth fixed, plus pay for medicine, supplies, and food.
We're a poor, disabled, queer family living in a crumbling house on one tiny income, which is a really expensive life to live.
We're also working on a game, and would like to put as much time toward it as possible.
You can help!

Here is something I wrote on autism awareness last year for Autism acceptance month

Hi, I am new here.
I am here to find other people with #autism.
I am mid 30 and just slowly processing that I might have it. Things make sense slowly. I hope it helps to be here and connect with other people and talk about it, because in my real life I struggle with that.
Not diagnosed. Not ready for that quite yet and also not sure if I even should. Curious about your opinions on that..
Excited and bit scared to meet you all!
Bleh, I am definitely burned out again.
Sleep doesn't make me feel rested. I wake up tired. I'm struggling to maintain a train of thought, and I get overwhelmed by information and demands so easily.
Ugh. Not again
As Autism Awareness/Acceptance Month begins, I want to encourage you to support autistic individuals like myself who have faced challenges in finding or maintaining employment. Your support helps us build better lives and thrive.

It's really hard, as an Autistic person, to try being friendly to strangers in a shared space - like a dog park - and get nothing in return.
It's harder still not to feel like it's because there's something wrong with us.

Gleich auf ARD Alpha: Quarks - Wie wir ticken, so vielfältig sind unsere Gehirne.
Unter anderem geht es auch um ADHS und Autismus. Habe es vorhin auf einem anderen Kanal nur mit einem halben Ohr mitbekommen.
Werde es jetzt nochmal komplett schaue. Es klang sehr interessant.

We don’t have to live in the world of “shoulds” or chase their “normal.”
Is there an ethical equivalent(or close) to Amazon?
I have a friend who's not neurotypical and likes shopping on Amazon because they get choice paralysis and it simplifies many steps.
That friend is also trying to ditch Amazon for the obvious ethical reasons, but can't find an ethical alternative. I've offered my own strategies, but they're not really helpful to them. Are there any ethical equivalents?
Been playing on https://www.erionmud.com and am thoroughly enjoying the crafting system. Having the option to just work uninterrupted, in familiar patterns, appeals to my #ActuallyAutistic need for structure and familiarity, while when my #ActuallyADHD side wants novelty, I can go wander the realm and see what pops up. And if I need something, I can make it myself, darn it! LOL If you try it out and need some pointers, I'm usually up there as Tamryn, so feel free to ask me anything.

'Scandal of historic proportions': Outrage as baker deported over autism awareness tattoo
"'Renditioned' is the correct term for what happened," wrote Refugees International president Jeremy Konyndyk. "These were not deportations...these people were renditioned unlawfully to a gulag outside the reach of US law."
