THE LATE-DIAGNOSED MILLENNIAL REALITY.
1. Born between 1981 & 1996
2. Raised being told you were too much
3. Learned your worth through how well you could mask
4. Spent decades thinking you were broken
5. Told anxiety and depression were the problem
6. Pushed through burnout because "everyone struggles"
7. Recognized neurodivergence in your 20s or 30s
8. Grieved for the child who deserved support sooner
9. Realized no one taught you that your brain works differently
10. Started unmasking and don't know who you are
11. Tried quietly to rebuild your life with this new lens
12. Wonders why understanding yourself feels like mourning the person you could have been
Nobody talks about how people who grew up in broken and dysfunctional homes donโt have big dreams. They only dream of having a home no one can take away and a person who wonโt abandon them.
My BD called saying his girlfriend was bringing the kids home and immediately Iโm like WHY SHE bringing MY kids home?! ๐๐ Babyโฆ this woman pulled up with dinner for everybody because she heard I had been working all day. She handed me the food and said, โI figured you probably didnโt feel like cooking tonight.โ ๐ญ Girl WHO SENT YOU?! Because now I gotta stop talking imaginary trash about you in my head. ๐ I donโt care what nobody says, when another woman genuinely loves your babies, you appreciate that. Period.
stimulants don't work on alot of ADHD people the way they do on everyone else. you can drink a red bull and fall asleep. you can drink caffeine and feel calm. our nervous systems run backwards.
hayden panettiere was a child star, a survivor of domestic violence, postpartum depression, sexual abuse and addiction, and a grieving big sister. she had been fighting like hell for a long time. she deserved to live a long happy life.
Trauma can literally change how the brain functions.
And we have people out here saying shit like โlet go of your past, forget about itโ
Like we are TRYING.
FUCKOFF
I absolutely HATE the idea of โwell someone else has it worseโ like NO.
Your pain and trauma are completely valid despite what someone else went through..
Autism: Drained by small talk. Needs 2 days to recover.
ADHD: Overshares with a stranger for 45 minutes.
AuDHD: Overshares, immediately regrets it, hides for 2 days
Someone please explain the neurodivergent experience of feeling like I was mentally older than my peers as a child and now feel mentally younger now as an adultโฆ.
autism. is a disorder. AUTISM is a DISORDER. Autism is a DISABILITY. Autism. DISABLES you. All three levels of autism are DISABLING. every single person diagnosed with autism is diagnosed with a DISORDER and a DISABILITY. don't fucking start this shit during Disability Pride Month when theyre trying to fucking institutionalize us. trying to separate autism from the rest of the disability community will not fucking save us and it most certainly will not save YOU.
As a late diagnosed AuDHD adult, I was not prepared for the amount of abuse I would experience once I started unmasking.
People do not like autistic adults.
