What the everloving fuck I leave social media for like 2 months and come back to X Corp

@AutisticCoach_ Purity Ring! I have trouble hearing/registering lyrics, so I tend to focus more on the melody/sounds of words. Their lyrics are somewhat nonsensical to me, but the sounds their music makes light up my brain like a Christmas tree

@AmberlynWhite My school would let you stay in and finish homework if you hadn't done it all, so I'd always leave a little or pretend I hadn't done it so I could stay inside and read

@autistic_dutske 26, and I'm 29 now

Me, an autistic person: I have no idea what's happening in this situation, so I'm just going to laugh, that seems like a good idea.
Narrator: It was not, in fact, a good idea.

People who post about chronic illness and disability are often accused of seeking attention…so close! We’re seeking CONNECTION.

@stanzipotenza I take Adderall for narcolepsy. Ritalin gave me anxiety, a high heart rate, and the crash was horrendous. Adderall clears my brain fog and lets me actually focus on Things™️. The first time I took Adderall, I info dumped to my mom about birds for 10 minutes.

Dr. Pepper and root beer are cousins

@stanzipotenza ’Tism tits

@p0ppyfield I’m in the US, but I wish your sis godspeed!

[Jedi Master Alix @AlixplainLater]

@telekath I am literally beaming with happiness for you, and that is not an exaggeration

[Jedi Master Alix @AlixplainLater]

My crowning achievement thus far is a colleague telling me she believes I could really hurt someone’s feelings if I wanted to, but that I choose not to

[Jedi Master Alix @AlixplainLater]

Sometimes I cough and it pops my back, which makes me feel 1000 years old

This whole thread!!! I’m in therapy working on a lot of things, but this is still one area I struggle with

[Dr. Nicole LePera @Theholisticpsyc]

Let's talk about social anxiety disorder.

So many people not at ease with people, need to drink in order to socialize, or fears what people are thinking of them.

HERE'S WHY... (A THREAD 🧵):

[Jedi Master Alix @AlixplainLater]

@ElyKreimendahl Everyone else on the call made it weird by not asking. Quite rude tbh

[Jedi Master Alix @AlixplainLater]

Not being happy with your looks isn’t the same as literally loathing your entire being & wanting to cut parts of yourself off with kitchen scissors. So maybe just let people talk about their issues without self centering & trying to be relatable because you’re a dick if you do

[Jedi Master Alix @AlixplainLater]

Why do people feel the need to say “everyone’s experienced that” when someone’s talking about something they’ve struggle with? It doesn’t feel relatable, it feels dismissive and reductive af. Not to mention it’s a fucking lie

[Jedi Master Alix @AlixplainLater]

I told someone that I had severe body dysmorphia & disordered eating from middle school through college. They said everyone’s got things they dislike about their body, which is true, BUT
