Autism is not shameful.

You can do great things even with Autism.

Treat people well. Respect people.

Do you have special interests?

Shame on them for being so judgemental.

They obviously do not know any better (yet). They should be encouraged to learn more about our fascinating and sometimes challenging way of thinking and living.

You are not alone, there are loads of us and I think this is an awesome community to belong to, glad to have you on board.

Did you know that for all our challenges that many of us have special extra abilities that NTs (Neurotypicals) don`t have?

I can have an amazing attention to detail when I want to, (sometimes when I don`t want to as well!), I can smell smells way before anyone else. I can hear sounds that no one else in the room can or tell that a car is coming a long time before anyone else can hear it.
I have a very analytical and scientific way of thinking which helps me solve problems when others get stuck.

Do you have any special skills or abilities that others don`t?

DONT KNOW HOW TO REPLY

"Shame" is one of the main tools of punishment by the hive mind.
They want you to believe that resistance is futile.

What does the green circle mean?

Do you mean literally that you are unsure of how to reply to people's posts? (in that case go all the way up to the top Where it has the time stamp and follow the line all the way to the right and you can click the quote button like I did to quote you right now)

Or that you don't know how to respond to people and put your thoughts words and feeling into an articulate statement?

What's your first language? Also, what does the green button/circle mean? It reminds me of the japanese flag but in green haha.

Also, did you write in all caps for a particular reason?

I think I *might* know what you mean?

So much wrong with their family's responses and so many thoughts about it try to push through from my brain to my fingers all at once. I'm going to have to sit back for a few minutes and compose my reply to the OP.

They are wrong.

Slave is correct, carcard.

When I was growing up, I was told I was "wrong" and "shameful" for so many things. But it boiled down to , 'just because I wasn't like them'. Now, somewhere around mid-life, I've discovered that the problem was with them, not me. Oh, I have faults and quirks and things that make me different and things that that don't work right. And it's not all sunshine and flowers. But I learned along the way that I don't have to depend on THEM to decide if I am acceptable, because their definition was based on me being just like them. And (this is key) it was based on the people whose opinions they thought were important. Turns out those people with the opinions? Don't really matter to me all that much...in fact, I really don't like them so much.

I am so sorry that your family is like that with you. The truth is that is how it is for them, the way they choose to see it, not the way it really is. I am very glad your little brother is there for you. He is the only one seeing it the right way.

MY FATHER does not like disability
He mocks

It's good to hear from you

When a parent mocks a child, it is an act of abuse. It is morally and ethically wrong, and it harms the child psychologically.

You deserve to be respected and treated with kindness.


carcard, may I ask you how old you are?

We don`t mock here.

Spend some more time on this site you can get a lot of support from people who understand what its like.
You should remember that there are very many of us in the world and you are not alone here.

Also if you learn more about yourself this will give you the power to challenge ignorant ideas and people who mock.

fear and conjuring the fear, that what's in him might come out

make your plan and don't pick this fight

Good statement kraftiekortie.

carcard, it seems like the ones who are close by you are judgemental, I'm sorry about that. I suggest to follow what kraftiekortie stated, you can always do great things with Autism.
