Autistic people may find it hard to set boundaries, because we’re so used to being uncomfortable and having to give so much to every situation that we might not know where to draw the line. How uncomfortable is too uncomfortable? How much is too much to give/tolerate?

Nothing sums up this government more than the fact they want to make it illegal to give a homeless person a tent, while at the same time wanting to slash inheritance tax so they can pass on their own mansions to their kids tax-free. theguardian.com/society/2023/n…

Adjustments for #Autistics often help others. The lights for my therapy (NHS building) are horrendous, so I ask to keep them off until it's too dark. Today I arrived to a lamp! It made a world of difference for me, but the psychiatrist said how much nicer it felt for her too😊

I increasingly fear there may be no sufficient number of energy-consuming things I can cut to make life manageable. The amount of rest I need simply does not fit into a day, week or any other unit of time. #AskingAutistics for I'm not sure what, since no-one can pause time.

Or does any Autistic people know another Autistics who were Early Diagnosed, because that would be most helpful thanks, knowing that I’m not the only one. ~♾️ #autistic #Autism #ActuallyAutistic #autisticadult #autisticwoman #Neurodivergent

The world is a lot. Living in it is a lot. The push for gratitude practices sometimes feels unhelpful. When things are hard, a reminder to be grateful feels like judgement that I am not grateful enough. Whether externally or self imposed, it does not help me. #ActuallyAutistic

When 96% of tribunals decide in favour of the children/family, it is beyond clear that #EHCP Needs Assessments are NOT based on need, but on the money a council has available. Funding must increase. Please do not vote Conservative. probonoeconomics.com/wasting-money-…

I have got a microwave for which I can ENTIRELY TURN OFF ALL BEEPING. I did not know they existed until this year. It also has a soft-close door. #AskingAutistics to share any other game-changing device discoveries. Might need a lottery win to get them but I'd still like to know

One of the most helpful things about learning I'm #ActuallyAutistic is being able to more quickly move past infuriating and self-berating questions. WHY do I do this? WHY do I react like this? WHY can't I just _ like other people? Now I can answer, I move on to how to help myself

Autistic people & professionals!! The Greater Manchester Suicide Prevention Programme and @Zer0Suicide are developing suicide prevention training for those supporting autistic people. We know that this topic is SO important. You can have your say here. 👇🏻 zerosuicidealliance.com/training/zsa-t…

#AskingAutistics how to determine whether things I struggle with could be #ADHD or are a result of being autistic? E.g. despite everything having a place, I lose things a lot as I'm too busy/overwhelmed to be aware of what I'm doing with my hands (i.e. that I put something down).

#Autism dx requests are urgent 'As we masked the decades away, we were gathering personality disorders, autoimmune disorders, major depressive disorders, anxiety disorders, eating disorders, addictions, CPTSD, and becoming victims of physical and sexual abuse at an alarming rate'

It doesn't take much scrolling of the autism/autistic #s to be reminded why people created one for #ActuallyAutistic people to interact. We deserve one not littered with insults, anti-trans bigotry, treatments to make us appear less like ourselves, or campaigns to cure/prevent.

I used to say it seems hard for me to have a close connection with someone who hadn't (at least at some point) been deeply depressed. Now I realise it's that I find easier to understand #ActuallyAutistic people. It's sad how uncommon it is for us not to suffer poor mental health.

Today I found out the #NHS has accepted my private #Autism assessment report, and the diagnosis has been coded on my records. A friend, referred before I was, is still waiting. Every autism assessment is URGENT. People should have the right to know. #FundTheNHS

I often lament not knowing I was #ActuallyAutistic when I was younger. But considering how poorly autism was understood then, I know it wouldn't likely have been as helpful as I imagine. Early ID should be a great thing, but plenty can make it not so. Even now, which is very sad.

I have a chance to speak after an upcoming HR work presentation about neurodiversity. I've been advised a maximum of 5 minutes, and am struggling to determine what the most important things are to cover. #AskingAutistics what is crucial to include? It all feels vital!
