I cannot take myself seriously when I want to do some serious self reflection. petulant bpd + general narcissism + aspd intrusive thoughts leads to a lot of magical girl anime antagonist sounding shit. genuinely, my internal monologue sounds like the villain of a show marketed towards five year olds.
so this is why I can never talk about my feelings because then I feel like an overdramatic try hard emo teen, and I do not have the emotional capacity for that.
I think where many miss the mark on accepting those with stigmatising mental disorders is they're so focused on this idea only morally acceptable people deserve the dignity of their disability being accepted.
Even though I am a narcissist, I have come across other narcissists who I consider bad people that I would not like to be friends with. I am often told I am a "good narcissist" by egotypicals trying to affirm me, especially when I was in the early stages of accepting I have NPD and terrified about being viewed as a bad person. What I found comforting then—being told it's fine I'm a narcissist because I'm a good person—I now wish was being told narcissists who don't fit the egotypical definitions of goodness are still human.
A "bad narcissist" deserves treatment.
A "bad narcissist" deserves access to resources for their mental health.
A "bad narcissist" deserves their humanity.
People love to tell me "I support narcissists!—except the bad ones."
From this, I wonder what their support means. I wonder how much they care about mentally disabled people if they can pick and choose who they want to dignify as disabled and who they want to write off as scum.
Is it any different, I wonder, to misgendering a bad person because they just so happen to be trans? Do they not deserve the dignity of their identity for their actions?
Why is it any different for mental illness?
Good job me, we remembered to do the thing. Unfortunately we did not remember that we remembered to do the thing so we checked again.
If you tell neurodivergent people they need to "get comfortable with being uncomfortable" I am putting gravel in your shoes. No you can't take the gravel out. You have to deal with it. Dealing with it makes you a better person. What do you mean "pointless suffering".
i am a victim of autistic abuse.
autistic abuse was very prevalent in my household as a child. my autistic brother had meltdowns in which he hit me and violently threw stuff at me. i recently had an horribly toxic autistic friend who couldn't communicate their emotions even though i told them several times that my mental illness symptoms are triggered and worsened when people don't communicate, and they avoided doing so on purpose -- these two are examples of what we call autistic abuse, and it is valid as a form of abuse and much more common than you believe.
these are signs to look for in order to know if a person is an autistic. if you know any person who has these patterns of behavior, it is likely that they are autistic: you must watch out for them and, if possible, completely cut them off from your life:
- seems cold and unfeeling
- can't communicate their emotions
- has poor emotional regulation skills
- is unintelligent
and didn't that make me sound like an ableist asshole?
isn't it obvious that while being autistic doesn't mean u get to throw shit at people, equating one autistic person throwing shit at me to autistic people having any direct correlation with abuse is only leading to bigotry and prejudice?
weren't those "signs to know if someone you know is autistic (so that you can prevent being abused by them)" not only invasive, but extremely stereotypical, bigoted, hurtful, straight up not neccessarily true?
isn't it clear that if i had meant a word of that, i would've been very fucking stupid?
then why is narcissistic abuse an acceptable term?
Your idea of me is not my responsibility to live up to.
It's all "We don't need levels. We're all the same", and "Support needs fluctuate on a daily basis. Some days I'm level 3", and "Autism isn't a disability. It's just a different neurotype", and more to basically insinuate we're all equal or not disabled.
Until they try looking for support and suddenly it's "There's no support for autistics like us", and "All the support is for high support needs autistics and I can't relate to them at all. It'll be uncomfortable being around that", and "They only make resources for children and high support needs autistics", and "I can't handle being around higher support needs. They make me angry. They're so annoying. Why can't they act normal", among so much more.
Acting like we're all the same and severity doesn't exist in the spectrum and that some autistics can't be more disabled by their autism, until they have to interact with us. Then suddenly we're othered and not like them at all.
I’m LSN/MSN (I was diagnosed as LSN, but the eval was poorly done, so I plan on getting reevaluated to see whether or not that stays consistent), but this is such a problem. Stop with the aspie supremacy. Especially because not all LSN autistics have the same issues either.
Yeah, the levels aren’t perfect, but either hold that belief consistently or don’t hold it all. I believe the levels do serve a purpose because not all autistics struggle an equal amount or even struggle with the same things. Of course, the categories shouldn’t be used too rigidly because some people do fluctuate, but don’t pull the “we’re all equal” to feel more valid only to throw it away when a comparison is drawn. It’s just so dehumanizing to HSN autistic people.
if one more person tells me that I can't have a cluster b personality disorder because "You're too nice" I'm going to jump off a bridge and take some ableists with me
Look I'm just saying, if bigots can't figure out how to accommodate trans people and sports to the degree that either trans people or sports have to go, then the only right answer is that sports have to go. Like sorry folks but human rights are more important than an excuse to go to the pub and yell.
"I think I might have NPD" "No you don't dw :) people with NPD never question if they have NPD because they never self-refle-"
actually there's nothing wrong with being mentally ill. you can be narcissistic, you can be psychopathic, you can be delusional, you can be insane, you can be bipolar, you can be whatever the hell it is you are. you don't need to make your mental illness pretty to be worth being here. the fact that you've made it this far is amazing and you deserve happiness and I'm sorry that the world we're in is too ableist to recognize that.
I've met a lot of able people who believe the disabled are wrapped up in a safe bubblewrap blankie and protected from the mean cruel world, usually as an excuse to do or say something they know is ableist, but I've actually never met a disabled person who attests to the experience of the world or other people being kind to them lol.
it being a popular and regular thing to see people insist on specifying ‘cis’ when talking about things pertaining to womanhood that trans women do not face in order to not implicitly leave them out of discussions of womanhood while having feminist conversations, and yet when it comes to ranting about the evils that (cis) men do and a trans man asks that you specify ‘cis’ suddenly he’s just too sensitive and should automatically know whats being said doesn’t apply to him.
hey so by the way fuck you .
btw if youre young and scared of doing adult things without your parents ive learned that like 90% of the time you can just tell the doctors office or the dmv "haha sorry ive never done this without help before... can you show me how to do this?" the employee will not care. if that means anything to you
there is actually so much ableism embedded in the online autistic community and no one really talks about it. i'm often very afraid about sharing my opinions or lived experiences, especially if they're not super mainstream or very well worded, because i'm afraid my tone or wording will be torn to shreds.
we are expected to include every single possible nuance in our posts despite how many autistic people struggle with black and white thinking.
we are called self-centered when we talk about our lived experiences despite how autism is characterized by a delayed or inhibited development of theory of mind (or the ability to put yourself in someone else's shoes)
one post that is easily misinterpreted or uninformed opinion and we are incessantly bullied and driven off platforms. even if you're autistic yourself, that's not the right thing to do. autistic people are as diverse as any other group of people, don't expect every one of us to properly convey YOUR opinions or experiences regarding autism, especially with a disorder that affects social communication and speech
the autistic online community should be a safe space. the world is so hateful towards us, we shouldn't have to mask online too. it's exhausting
GUYS PIRATING IS BAD.
DO NOT PIRATE ANYTHING. NOT SHOWS/MOVIES. NOT GAMES OR SAFER GAMES. AND CERTAINLY NOT BOOKS. AND DO NOT DOWNLOAD YOUTUBE VIDEOS. AND NEVER EVER EVER WATCH MUSICALS WITHOUT GOING TO THEM AND DONT USE ADBLOCKERS/OTHER ADBLOCKER TO AVOID ADS AND VIRUSES PIRATING IS VERY HARMFUL TO THE CORPORATIONS WHO WORKS VERY HARD TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF PEOPLE AND THEIR MONEY. ANYONE WHO PIRATES IS BAD. BAD PIRATING. EVIL. OH AND THIS
Look at the comments that explain how some of the links aren’t good, just to be safe. Most of them are fine, just want yall to know.
Hey, I’ve always been interested in educating people about autism, and I’ve finally finished a project that I’m really excited about!
It isn’t perfect, but it’s close to an hour long, and chock full of information! So if you need a crash course, this would be it.
