Not officially diagnosed, not self-diagnosed, but a secret third thing.

[Diagnosed in childhood but the records were lost and they don't diagnose you if you are an adult.]

The worst part about having two nerodivergent people in a relationship is when one of them wants everything to have a place and the other constantly is forgetting them on accident and losing things

"They do not mean it. It is not their fault. It was an accident. It was an accident and I love them. It was an accident and I love them. It was an accident and I lov..."

Hello this is you’re friendly reminder to stop trying to divide disabled people BY you’re EUGENICIST Values:

People who are perceived as twice exceptional or Disabled Geniuses; are fetishized, exploited, and used as a weapon against our peers.

People who are perceived as having IDD:

Are not getting materials using more comfortable and inclusive language and are being devalued constantly.

Go into a Disabled space or social groups or something before you talk about functioning labels or “intelligence.”

This is being used to Pit us against one another when we need one another.

Ive been shoved in the high functioning Genius category This is wrong for many reasons:

The main ones that bother me are;

•I grew up in social groups with folks with a vast array of support needs. Our needs are different ,but many of us grow up together via social groups via Special Ed rooms, Via our parents leaning on one another for support. Don’t you dare Label ANY of us as less than or disrespect ANY of us.

•Shoving us into a category of Intelligence is BS (IQ doesn’t have weight you can’t measure intelligence.)

Processing maybe but people who need more time to process are not less intelligent.

•Folks who are considered Disabled and viewed as High functioning or Higher intelligence can have major struggles with emotional balance and regulation I struggle with this. However this is a strength area for some of my peers with Intellectual disability we learn from each-other and we need each-other due to having strengths and weaknesses in different areas.

Lastly 2E individuals especially 2E Autistics are tired of the Segregation from our peers and the disrespect of our whole communities when you do this. There is some talk around Autistic folks who are Considered 2E or genius not to share what we make because if you don’t value our peers with IDD and any peer in the disability community you don’t value any of us.

Because the uncomfortable truth is “Lower functioning.” Just means more connected to Disabled culture/ traditions and less trained out of it. Higher functioning folks are still the same folks ,but you’ve just taught us to internalize your Abelism. Many of us are trying to relearn what our peers you consider Lower functioning never lost or got trained out of.

It would be nice if people cared about disabled people for longer the five seconds.

Before-

People: Go outside!

Me: I’m disabled.

Now-

People: Go outside!

Me: I’m still disabled and there’s a fucking pandemic.
