“People usually don’t go to great lengths to protect fantasies. So why do people go to such great lengths to discredit, mock and question whistleblowers credibility?” - The Why Files Something to think about.

“You own everything that happened to you. Tell your stories. If people wanted you to write warmly about them, they should have behaved better.” - Anne Lamott

Enough with the, “AWWW SIMON WE LOVE YOU! YOU ARE ALWAYS WELCOME! WE ACCEPT YOU FOR WHO YOU ARE” nonsense. Then when I ask for an accommodation: *CRICKETS* Only to find out that I am the INCONVENIENCE. It’s getting really old and predictable. #Autism

I cannot stop “laughing” at the thought that some think I am the “Boogie Man” LOL

“You SNAPPED OUT of it when SOMEONE MADE YOU HAPPY. Now you are a DEPRESSED LUMP. You aren’t REALLY THAT DEPRESSED THEN. GET UP!” Ever heard of getting flood with uncontrollable dopamine? That’s exactly what happens to me during depression episodes. Also don’t forget about dynamic disabilities

If your life had a background sound track what would it be? Me: TERRIBLE. Because of how people bait and switch me knowing that I am intellectually “delayed.” #Autism

“Can’t you just snap out of it?” Nope. I cannot control what makes or breaks my day. Whatever it is consumes me mentally even while doing, “yoga and deep breathing.”

Enough with the “nice” fluffy sugar coated talk dancing around the fact that: I AM NOT INVITED. #Disabled

Being extra careful while carrying my papers since I’m a POC within a sanctuary city:

Same here, no wonder I hear food and get easily overwhelmed in novel situations and around uncomfortable people:

My weakness is validation: I gotten mistreated to many times in my life that I feel like that I must keep re-telling my story for it to be true.

THIS: 💯🫵 How do you know who’s tell the truth? Those who aren’t are silencing those who are. Keep an eye and ear out for the ones being silenced.

“We’ll be friends with you no matter what.” LIAR.

“You have a way of twisting and twisting things in your mind to the point that you don’t even know the truth. You love going after those who really love and care for you. They gave you the world only for your twisted and cruel mind to get in the way.” And that’s why I remain silent. #Autism

“Why didn’t you tell anyone sooner?” Me: “Welp, when I did talk, I got told that I need to stop being so delusional and making stuff up because of my Autism.”

There’s this video where a guy keeps poking at a woman’s pancake plate while she’s trying to take a photo. Then the woman ends up smashing the pancakes only to get labeled, “crazy.” 😢😢😢

“Stop being so mental!” Stop pushing me over the edge baiting a reaction.

It’s getting rather obvious whenever my stress related psychological decay gets taken advantage of either for laughs or gains. #Autism

I keep letting my innocence get in the way, ugh.

Funny how some of same people claiming that I complain too much are the same people who complain about everything and everyone under the sun.

“So why didn’t you speak up sooner about YOUR concerns.” Welp, I did but nobody actually listened. I wouldn’t be in THIS position if someone took my concerns seriously See how “this” works?

“Why didn’t YOU say something sooner.” Every time I tried: I either got further isolated Got blocked. Got ghosted. Got ostracized. Got banned. Got socially outed. Got cut off. And that’s why it’s hard to “say something sooner.” Stop with the BLAMING.

I’m coming to find that some of the MOST unhealthy people do the most OUTLANDISH things in hopes that people tell you: “that CAN’T be true.”

Somethings people say things that may sound “so outrageous that they can’t possible be true.” Please keep an open ear: that’s how most toxic dynamics count on. #Survivor

PSA: Nobody ASKS FOR IT or anything. Stop with the BLAME SHIFTING if someone is BRAVE enough to put their reputation, life and mental health on the line to tell THEIR story. #Surivor 💜

The inability to explain anything cohesively is starting to wear on me. Just another example of disability tax.

I am so sick and tired of the near constant isolation because of how quickly some people believes LIES regarding my mental health.

💯💯💯

And why I tended to fall for lovebombing because I couldn’t pick up on settle cues:

Mistreatment is designed to make you look like the “INSANE ONE.” Keep that in mind whenever someone is trying to discredit another person.

Someone just doesn’t “leave out of nowhere” even if people try painting it that way. Rather it can be weeks even years of build up before someone leaves for their own peace.

You just want people to pity you. Don’t you? Not true. I tell my story as a POWERFUL reminder of why we must continue advocating no matter how many break throughs there are. I won’t stop until I see consistent equitable treatment.

“Why do depressed?” *Coughs, well yeah, it’s easy to feel down when you are being treated and perceived as a human sub-class. #Disabled

“See, you can see here that she’s clearly having mental problems. Her social media says it all.” Yet, here is where I can express my reality without people jumping to conclusions about my mental state. Or telling me that I “make stuff up.”

THIS: “Someone doesn’t ‘magically’ become mentally ill unless it’s for your convenience in hopes that you can distract from your inhumane treatment.”

“The world is your oyster, there are plenty of opportunities…” *Get’s passed up for almost everything #Autism

Everyone: trust your gut My gut: there's ants in your soda. they crawled in there when you weren't looking

“She’s going off the deep end.” “This was her chance to be an adult.” What a convenient way to discredit a mentally ill victim.

She dresses weird She’s crazy! She talk’s weird She’d crazy! She acts weird She’s crazy! She moves weird She’s crazy! Then people wonder why I “didn’t tell them sooner.” Because I wasn’t believed the first time. No wonder I’m easy prey. #autism

“You need so much hand-holding.” Welp, there are somethings that I cannot simply comprehend. Would you tell someone who cannot play the flute that they “need so much hand-holding in life” if they were “stuck” in a marching band. Think about that. (If you get what I mean) #Autism

I would rather leave such a “nasty” taste in one’s mouth and spit out, than be broken into 1million palatable chunks. 🍪

Actual pro tip: the best way to break into any creative profession is by helping to support and advance other creators. Your peers are not your adversaries. They are your support group.

“If I were you, I wouldn’t have gotten myself into this situation.” Bruh, you likely don’t realize just how easy I am to manipulate, especially if a basic need is at stake. No wonder autistics like myself are easy prey.

Just because I present myself well online doesn’t mean that I am always mentally capable of doing something. Enough with the “if she can do this, she can do that…” narrative.

“Autistic people really do like imaging things and saying things for attention. Sad life isn’t it?” REALLY!? 😳🙄

“Your paranoid.” Then maybe stop doing things that actively derail my mental health.

Pro tip: If you're autistic, you might find that complicated conversations go better over text. Texting gives you time to choose your words, process your emotions, and prevents allistic people from disregarding your words to focus solely on your body language.

Let them be mad. Let them judge you. Let them misunderstand you. Let them gossip about you. Let them ignore you. Let them be right. Let them doubt you. Let them hate you. Let them run your name in the ground. Let them make you out to be the villain. But never let them make you question your worth.

Would really appreciate for people to stop weaponizing my lack of knowledge against me.
