I never said I was living my best life. I said I exist...barely, sometimes. Just because I can speak, work, and mask now doesn’t mean I don’t constantly struggle. I didn't have support growing up. I struggle.

We need to value all autistic people, regardless of support needs.

Now that I’ve had some sleep, I have more to say.

Every autistic person...regardless of their level of support needs...is worthy of dignity, respect, and a life free from shame or judgment. It doesn’t matter if someone needs help with daily tasks or if they’re navigating challenges independently.

looks like apathy, like staring into the void and shrugging, “Maybe none of this matters anyway”? Oddly, that thought helps. It softens the edges. If nothing really matters, then I can breathe. I can stop crushing myself with expectations. I can just be. And for now, that’s enough. /6

The dead don’t ask for productivity. They just exist as they are. They are traces, echoes, and stories....that feels like home.

People talk about purpose like it’s some shining light we’re all supposed to chase. But what if the thing that gets you through is darker? What if survival sometimes /5

I’m not doing, the silence I’m not breaking.

Maybe this is why I’ve always gravitated toward death, history, and ghost stories. There’s something strangely soothing about looking into the lives of the long-gone and feeling less alone in my own unraveling. /4

I haven’t written. I haven’t made anything. The books are untouched. The ideas are stalled. I'm too tired to research. More often than not, I feel like I'm not good enough. My body is tired from carrying things no one can see. I go through the motions, haunted by all the things /3

But knowing it exists feels like control in a strange way when everything else feels like chaos. It quiets the noise just enough to get through the day. It's like an emergency exit I never intend to use, but need to know is there when I need it. Lately, I haven’t been able to create. /2

Yes indeed!
