Punch or Hug: the level 1 .

I wasn't going to post anything about the patch until next month, but I don't think this counts as spoilers.

What would you rather do with the Level 1 ?

Punch

Hug

Punch then hug

Hug then punch

please please please don’t forget to include intellectual disability, psychosis / schizospec disorders, level 2-3 autistics, folks w dissociative disorders, and others with “severe mental illness” from ur conversations about mad liberation.

these are some of the most vulnerable and disenfranchised mad people, and we need to give them a voice.

these are the places where liberation is needed the most

I wish people talked more about how disabling LSN/L1/high functioning whatever you want to call it autism can be.

- basic stuff like eating and showering is hit or miss

- more advanced stuff like doctor, mechanic, fix furnace ... some hit mostly miss

- missing crucial social skills

- crushing loneliness due to above

- limited participation in the world due to sensory overload and lack of skills

- (e.g., I want to go to this event in town but it's going to be loud, I don't know anyone there, and I can't handle that).

- easy to get taken advantage of because I don't always know when people are being inappropriate

- (how know the difference between creepy touching and normal touching when all touching feels bad?)

- covered in self injury bruises and scratches from sensory overload and meltdowns

- no friends, no family I'm close with, never been on a real date, barely would know how to do those things

- no support. none. support would have to come from friends or family and I have none.

- there is nowhere to ask for help. my struggles are dismissed as "you're just different and that's ok!!" or "no you have superpowers:)))".

I have a full time job, live alone (shouldn't but have to), and pay bills like a good capitalism. Maybe your ability to make money is not a great measure of how impaired you are?

ASD Levels Pride Flags

PT: ASD Levels Pride Flags /end PT

Colors taken from my autism support needs flags (link), while the nautilus comes from @ipso-faculty's autism pride flags (link).

Althought ASD levels and supports needs aren't strickly the same concepts, they're often used interchangably and they're often directly linked, ence why I've choosen the colors of the autism support needs flags as a base.

In @ipso-faculty's flag the shell symbolises plural ideas: stylised verson of the Autism Spectrum Wheel, a fractal-like pattern that reminds the infinity symbols and a representation of our autistic metaphorical shells.

I've kept the same ideas in the design. Though, in addition, the different shades are linking each levels together, to highlight that they're diverse, complex yet an interconnected continuum.

Find the PSD on Deviantart (link)!
