so i have a question to nd people, do some of you also got this urge to "behave correctly" all the time, like you created this whole personality to please adults but then had your moments were you just got a lil bit excited, perhaps looked kinda crazy, talking too much, moving too much, laughing too much and doing things you don't normally do but actually you do but in your mind, like you look "normal" on the outside but your mind was always super messy full of ideas and stuff happening but tried your best at hiding and now everything's kinda falling(?? so now you have identity crisis or something???

CW: suicide mention
Take a couple minutes and watch this incredibly important video by @/f8_green on TikTok discussing autistic "burnout" and why it's necessary that we start using new and more literal language for it.

The plaintext version of this post is under the second underscore divider.
_
I think the best option for text accessibility is to first include a formatted version, and then include a plaintext version, and preface it with the note that there is a plaintext version after the formatted one, like I'm doing here.
Formatted first because it will then grab the attention of those who need formatting for accessibility.
I have gotten into a habit of making everything that is possible into plaintext right away and exclusively. It's not a good habit, it literally makes my things less accessible to my own self, and possibly for many others.
Just putting plaintext after every individual instance of formatting can also make text much less accessible.
Ideally, there should be a tool that makes any text plaintext, for any device. Perhaps retaining some means of accentuation, like asterisks instead of italics.

Auctober day 11!
Tumblr media
This one's a shout out to my friends throughout the years that've either been openly ND or discovered they're ND after we met. I wasn't open about being autistic until a few years back when my friends gave me a safe place to explore myself. Turns out ND minds really do find each other!!

the worst thing that ever happened to the nd community is "intrusive thoughts" being beat to desth and its corpse dragged around by people who think it means "impulsive thoughts/urges/etc" instead of something that would literally get you arrested or killed if allowed to happen :l

Help me 🚨
In my country the far right that helped the last coup has win to write the new constitution which has made in the dictatorship. They are attacking the democracy and already speaking of make a politician who was part of a seudo Hitler youths group but of the dictator and who's family not only helped the secret police to kill, torture, and dissappear ppl, but also the founder of that family here was a high rank nazi that flew to scape the nazi hunters and trials. Specifically to choose who will write the new constitution. This year is the 50th commemorations of the coup and the dictatorship keeps wining. I wonder if I am gonna end up dead in a ditch or disappeared like so many others here. I'm also part of the most oppressed groups, and currently I barely have money to eat and pay water, can't pay for my health problems nor even to fix basic shit where I live. I have tried everything, from making art to selling clothes, nothing has ever worked. I live in fear for my life bc of this and, tragically, many other things.
I'm brown, disable, queer, trans, nd, chronically ill, working class south american with chronic pain. Don't know if I am gonna be alive in the next months.
Please considere donante (dm me for my paypal), follow my art account , give me a tip in the ko-fi link at my ig bio or reblog this to reach more people. You like tarot or runes and want a card or runecasting reading to help me? Dm me for a lecture.

Tried three different “calming jar” crafts and here’s our thoughts—
1. In first place is the Ocean In A Bottle with oil, water, and food coloring! The way it moves is really cool. The only issue is that the outside of the bottle gets greasy if you aren’t careful. Link
2. In second place is the Glitter Calm Down Jar. It took about a day for the glitter glue to dissolve, and until then it looked weird lol. Link
3. In third place (but still good) was the Galaxy jar! It’s pretty but kinda just looks like paint in a bottle..maybe once it settles it’ll be more interesting. We just made it a few minutes ago. Link

I wanna start a "I can't multitask but..." thread among the neurodivergent people.
This can get hella funny.
Example : "I can't multitask, but I can stare through your soul while pretending to listen to what the fuck it is you're saying while my head is filled with nothing but angst and funny monkeys dancing to loud edm"

If you don't judge people for saying "sorry adhd brain" in public, then don't judge people for saying "sorry schizophrenia brain" in public
If you correct people when they misuse the term "ocd" then you need to correct people when they misuse the terms "psychotic", "delusional", "hallucinating" and "schizophrenic"
If you don't stare, laugh at or fear a stranger in public flapping their hands, then you need to do the same for a stranger in public talking to someone who isn't actually there.
If you give a trigger warning to sensitive topics then you need to give a trigger warning to unreality and false information as a prank.
If you want to normalize medication like antidepressants you also need to normalize medications like antipsychotics.
If you don't like people without your disorder joking about it online and report it as harassment, then you need to do the same for the tons of nonschizophrenics making "schizoposting" memes to make fun of us.
Just please include schizo-spec and psychotic acceptance into your mental illness/neurodiversity acceptance. We are part of your community whether you like it or not. We are constantly stigmatized, misrepresented and made fun of. We do what we can to help you, please return the favor.
Mental illness/neurodiversity acceptance is an ongoing action. We will get nowhere in the long run if we split the community into the "in" group and the "out" group. We could all accomplish so much if we worked together. But you need to include the "weird" people that don't fit into your aesthetic and don't fit the social norms.
Us psychotics and schizo-specs have been struggling for years and have been the only people fighting for ourselves while the people we plead to barely see us as human. If you are nonpsychotic and nonschizo-spec, you can help us more than you realize. Please include us and stick up for us the same way we have been including and sticking up for you.

Obsessive Thoughts Awareness
I just wanted to say that if you can get obsessed with literally anything and it's not a special interest, an hyperfixation or a common ocd obsession, it's still valid.
Obsessive thoughts isn't a separated diagnosis, but that doesn't mean is any less valid.

Something I wish a lot of people understood is that just because I mention wanting to do something completely doable doesn't mean it's going to happen. Not to speak for us all, but I've got ADHD. I'm almost entirely made up of "I'm gonna"s and "we should"s and "it would be so fun to"s and "one day"s and almost all of it means absolutely nothing.
Wanna know why?
Because when your to-do queue is 700 items deep and you add five new things to it each day, according to priority, almost all of it is never going to happen, even if you would really like it to. There's just not enough time in the world.
So!! If you're friends or lovers with someone like me and you keep wondering if that thing they said is ever going to happen, please ask them.
Because, personally, there is a good chance that if I suggested something would be fun to do with a friend and then didn't follow up on it within the week, I didn't know you were actually that interested, and/or completely forgot about it, and/or it got swallowed by the higher priority to-do items in the queue. If you ask me about it and say you really wanted to do that, your personal investment is going to make that item jump the queue by like 95%
Sincerely, a guy with so much ADHD

Fellow NDs, I gotta ask:
IS there anything that can be done to somehow train yourself to be less stunned and annoyed in a “my day is ruined” way when plans suddenly change? As someone whose kid constantly brings a cold from kindergarten, I have to postpone SO MANY plans, all the time, and I’m annoyed by my brain’s immediate reaction.
(I already take atomoxetine to help with my ADHD but the jury is still out if I’m hypersensitive or autistic on top of that, but either way: some strategies would be nice.)
