¡A mis brazos! Exclusive club you're joining 😁 Everything will be ok, now you have a name for it so you can learn and improve your life 💜

No I meant they would feel guilty by believing you, so it's easier this way...

Ugh, so sorry, yes, it's like if you imply you're struggling you're somehow attacking them? Like they feel guilty for not seeing your inner fighting so they'd rather believe you're lying. It's so infuriating!

Thank you! I find it infuriating that "being capable of doing something through lots of effort and suffering" usually equals to "oh, well, you're ok, you don't need any kind of help nor even acceptance of your struggles".

Thank you, well noted! Sounds promising indeed! 💜

Sorry, I only found more or less this by going solo, freelancing. There's stress obvs, an a lot, but it's MY stress, I decide it. If it's an option, I'll recommend it 100%. One of the best decisions in my life.
You'll never be rich, mind! 😁

@calixcapicua.bsky.social - in case you're still around!

Aw, yes, that'd be useful indeed.

Oh, I see, so sorry about that. Nevertheless, your knowing what's happening can help you to understand your needs and adapt your life in a a positive way as much as possible. You don't need a paper for that!

Will do for sure!

I'm not sure. Yours is not that weird and functioning is an "external" notion, not "internal". If a person with just one leg has figured out how to climb stairs up by jumping you don't say they are not disabled because see, they can climb up! It's the struggle what matters.

Really? Oh, then I should give her another try, thank you!

Because those tests were designed for one kind of autism, prevalent amongst the male population, thus making invisible all the other kind of autisms. Shocking news I know!

Yes, in my case is fully word processing, I mean, I have a strong visual imagination but not spatial notion (I suck with maps or 3D technical drawing for example), but the world to me is all about wording. But also somehow patterns. But in a "storytelling" kind of way if that makes sense at all.

Sure it does!

(Taking notes for when we study OCD) 😁

I mean, obviously there are universal things in our experience, like the feeling of alienation, but for me for example spatial thinking is totally alien. Etc.

Look Me in the Eye - Wikipedia

This is the book I was talking about- there are others from him I haven't read though.
Brilliant mind, very funny too, not me at all 😅

Oh wow, this is so impressive! Thanks for sharing!

Great! It's so important to find referents! Sadly, her autism flavour doesn't fit mine, and that's one of the things why I didn't like reading her work (just some fragments tbh), although it very much applied to my partner's. Same with JE Robison, great read but not "me", which I'd recommend you 😁

Ugh, sounds nightmarish, well done!

Good kid 💜

What are you doing here, IT'S ALMOST DUE!!! Go do the thing!!!

Hopefully it's not fully broken 💜 Take care!
