Me when I accidentally make eye contact with someone:
When I say autism is a spectrum I mean. Some autistic traits include:
Excessive talking - Non-verbal and no talking
Little to no eye contact - Excessive eye contact
Can’t read a person - Can over analyze a person
Socks 24/7 - No socks 24/7
Super high IQ - Below average IQ
Constantly under-stimulated - Constantly over-stimulated
Hyper-sexual - No sexual attraction at all
AUTISM IS A SPECTRUM NOT EVERYONE SHOWS THE SAME AUTISTIC TRAITS
Autism acceptance includes accepting all autistic manners of communication.
That means supporting autistic people who talk in a "very childish" way. (I do this a lot irl)
Autistic people who do "TV talking" (this means talking like a character from your favorite media,basically talking in quotes and copying their speech patterns,as far as I know)
Autistic people who use echolia.
Autistic people who are very awkward/quirky when they communicate.
Autistic people who are overly technical,or have very sophisticated and articulate speech.
Autistic people who mumble.
Autistic people who talk really fast.
Autistic people who can't control their tone of voice/inflection.
Autistic people who talk in a monotone voice.
Autistic people who use different kind of sounds,or body language to communicate.
Autistic people who talk slowly and draw out their syllables.
Autistic people who use a lot of sentance fillers.
Autistic people who use Aac devices,communication cards,etc etc.
Edit: acceptance of nonverbal autistics is also necessary. Nonverbal people deserve love,respect,acceptance,accommodation and support.
Not that anyone cares, but today I completely emptied out and organized all of my dresser drawers (I have 2 dressers) and my whole closet after procrastinating for years. I found socks in my sock drawer that were from when I was about 5. I’m kinda proud of myself.
When you finally get the courage to tell someone you have autism and mfs be like “no ur not” like oh shit mb????
