Goiterzan/Amygdalai Lama<p>Honestly, I'm not sure if it's the Grave's, getting worse with age, or getting worse with long COVID, or if it's the "normal," CFS from long COVID, but my whole sense of functionality disappears after any exertion at all.<br>.<br>Something about this relates to Autism.<br>I walked across the street today, it's a mall, like a megastore strip mall, so everything's big, it's just across the road but it's a 2km walk to pick something up, from box store to box store, past a few to reach the small stores.<br>.<br>So, I'm trying to avoid activating the Grave's trying not to exert myself and run out of whatever runs out, the opposite of thyroid hormone, I think, so I'm trying to walk old man slow, not get my breathing or my heart rate up - but I lose some race and already I'm not thinking straight and I keep forgetting and catching myself biting down and fighting through something to walk at a normal pace, you know, pushing through.<br>.<br>And I'm remembering I was proud of this trait, give me a hike, and I could just bite down and keep pumping those legs, get to the top of that hill or whatever, despite the sweating and the feeling . . . I can't say I remember the symptoms early, like at summer camp, teen years, only the sweat, but I know there was nausea, etc., through my forties, on the golf course, or at work.<br>.<br>But I'm thinking it's like masking, masking my illness forever. I'm not sure most people need all that drama just to keep walking. Just a metaphor, really. I'm starting to see that sometimes you need a lot of thought and therapy just to realize you're in pain, like a lot of my life is about being generally miserable, but I'm starting to think there's just always pain, but when it's always there, it's normal or something.<br>.<br>I'm constantly performing pain to no-one, grimacing and moaning, and I think of it as emotional pain, but . . . <br>.<br>The Autistic bit at last, sorry:<br>.<br>Autistic, "sitting strangely," and "odd positions" - I think of it as just me and the rare crime of my birth, but all my weird positions and all my being super particular about chairs and mattresses and pillows - that's about pain for me. I sit in your chair for an hour, I might get a kink somewhere that plagues me for days or weeks, same with the bed and the pillows.<br>.<br>Maybe I got the T-baby thing AND some plain old , I know we hate the word, comorbidities. But this idea about pain, including pain we manage not to be aware of, I bet it's connected to us and our weird furniture needs.<br>.<br>Sorry for going on so. 💜 <br>.<br><a href="https://autistics.life/tags/ActuallyAutistic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ActuallyAutistic</span></a> <br><a href="https://autistics.life/tags/actuallyautistic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>actuallyautistic</span></a> <br><a href="https://autistics.life/tags/autismacceptance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>autismacceptance</span></a></p>

So, my experience, my reading of the Allistic science and psychology is that it starts with, “Humans are social animals, SO,” right, “THEREFORE,” - it’s at the beginning of the causal chain, it all starts with our supposed Natures and proceeds from there.<br>.<br>Surely I have people, proper psychologists around here - is this a theory, what I said about spanking creating social discrimination?<br>Anyone?<br>.<br>I always feel that I must be being immature and unfair to say these things - but people keep<br>surprising me too. In fact, if I were a betting sort - anyone?<br>.<br>/2</p>

Spanking is an attack and can be a trauma and what a spanked human baby, born to learn, learns is that the human they archetypically expect to love them attacks them, the first human they interacted with attacked them.<br>.<br>2. If we could run, it would be like any hostile animal, like a predator, simple, and possible to learn, but we cannot, so there is conflict, pain, fear, and hatred, we have reasons not to acknowledge or express these, we are still in the predator’s larder.<br>.<br>3. This conflict produces ambivalence, we learned early to hate and fear, but we must find love also, somehow, and so we are split within ourselves - and this splitting is what we produce in the world, this splitting is what makes us a “social animal,” whereby we must have people to love, which seems healthy enough, but we must also find people to hate, to reconcile our earliest childhood survival learning.<br>.<br>/1<br>.<br>I think that’s new, a thing I intuited but never said before: this early abuse creates the NT social life. 🧐💜<br>.<br>tired. TBC, hopefully.</p>

Portablejim<p>This month is Autism Acceptance Month. As Autistic people, we don't need just the term thrown about for a month. We need people to understand our differences and accept them. Then, maybe, we can feel included, accepted and supported. </p><p>So, I will be posting about autism-related terms to try to increase understanding.</p><p>The first one is: the “double empathy problem” — A term coined by Dr Damian Milton to describe how people with different backgrounds may have trouble understanding each other. Both autistic and non-autistic people have differences that can contribute to social disconnection and understanding.</p><p>Here is a link for more information: <a href="https://reframingautism.org.au/miltons-double-empathy-problem-a-summary-for-non-academics/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">reframingautism.org.au/miltons</span><span class="invisible">-double-empathy-problem-a-summary-for-non-academics/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/ActuallyAutistic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ActuallyAutistic</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/AutismAcceptance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AutismAcceptance</span></a></p>

Shannon Meilak - Advocate<p>Why I Didn’t “Light It Up Blue” for Autism Awareness Day</p><p>Today was Autism Awareness Day, and once again, I didn’t “light it up blue.” I won’t do it next year either. Here’s why.</p><p>The "Light It Up Blue" campaign is heavily associated with Autism Speaks, an organisation that claims to advocate for autistic people but, in reality, does far more harm than good. Autism Speaks has a long history of treating Autism as a disease that needs to be "cured" rather than an integral part of a person’s identity. Their past campaigns have compared Autism to a tragic epidemic, portraying Autistic people as burdens on their families instead of human beings deserving of respect, inclusion, and support.</p><p>For years, Autism Speaks funnelled the majority of its funding into research aimed at eliminating Autism rather than into direct support for Autistic individuals. Even today, despite some surface-level changes, they still do not meaningfully prioritise Autistic voices or support the needs of the community. The organisation has been widely condemned by Autistic self-advocates and disability rights groups, and many of us in the community refuse to support them.</p><p>Instead of blue, I stand in solidarity with Autistic people by supporting the <a href="https://aus.social/tags/NothingAboutUsWithoutUs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NothingAboutUsWithoutUs</span></a> movements—because Autism awareness is not enough. We need acceptance, accommodation, and action.</p><p>If you want to truly support Autistic people, listen to Autistic voices. Support organisations that actually help Autistic individuals, like the Aspect - Autism Spectrum Australia or local disability support groups. Advocate for accessible workplaces, inclusive schools, and better disability services.</p><p>Autistic people don’t need “awareness.” We need understanding, respect, and a society that sees us as valuable, just as we are.</p><p>Want to hear from other Autistic adults about why we don't wear blue or support Autism Speaks?
