Autism awareness month:
If someone lies to me, that's it. There is the door. I value honestly and if you are going to lie and not be loyal to me, then you don't deserve to be in my life.

I have an intense fear of people being able to smell me. Maybe it's part of the autistic fear of being perceived? I don't know. It makes me not want to be physically close to people.

From my latest essay on my Substack publication, Rivers of Reflection. Please take the time to go read it and subscribe, if you can! I so appreciate your support.

Happy Autism Awareness month. It's an important month to remind ourselves of the realities of autistic people. I am autistic. I am Level 1 diagnosed at age 33. I speak up during Autism Awareness Month so that my Level 2 and Level 3 autistic siblings have a voice where they may have a quieter one.

Thank you for your support! Please consider becoming a subscriber to continue supporting my work.

First image reads: "You must imagine for yourself what it is to carry that dissonance quietly, everywhere you go. To live in a body that is constantly negotiating with its environment. To move through systems that were not designed with you in mind. To wonder, again and again, if you are the problem or if the world has simply never learned how to hold you."

Happy #AutismAwareness day to all who mark it. (Except for *spits* A*tism Sp*aks. They're cordially invited to kiss my crabby ass instead.)

Today is World Autism Awareness Day, embraced by many as Autism Acceptance Day. Awareness matters, but acceptance, inclusion, and respect matter even more. Let’s celebrate autistic people for who they are and keep building a world that values every mind. #AutismAwareness #AutismAcceptance #Neurodiversity #InclusionMatters #DifferentNotLess #ActuallyAutistic
