What is your biggest grievance with Autism?

Post Reply New Topic

Probably loneliness, followed by the executive function deficits/discrepancies that make me feel like I don't have access to my supposed intelligence.

Isolation, basically having any life at all worth living

it sucks

there are no redeemable qualities

Executive Functioning. That it "decided" to affect such a small minority of people putting us at a huge disadvantage.

The lack of respect I get from certain people, including my mum.

The difficulty of coping in everyday life and also being judged and stereotyped because of it.

I also hate the way it makes me have an unfriendly face. Even when I look up and make eye contact and smile, people still look at me awkwardly.

2nd biggest involves this phase:

"I can only hear the noise, and not the voices."

Not the biggest but one I wish to share:

It made me go mad from the revelations I have uncovered. Learning about brains, observing neurotypical society, and many other things have made me greatly disturbed inside. The fact so much of our lives is tied into physical brain differences, the fact due to my aspergers I think in a very non-fluid way seeing things in a very materialistic manner noticing the cause and effect behind actions and so forth awakening the Thomas Hobbes in me, I see paradoxes in actions everywhere and instead of ignoring them become disturbed at not being able to correlate it properly, my dabbling into information on the brain has made me question the existence of free will, our emotions are just chemical reactions that can be affected by our enviroment, and a bunch of other things neurotypical people have the option of freely ignoring due to their heavy reliance on their subconcious to take care of their actions and ability to see the bigger picture letting them ignore the fine disturbing details. (But some have the option to observe the details if they wish, we are forced into it)

Non autistics opinions/attitudes. And executive dysfunction.

Overthinking things and not getting on with people.

But most of all that it gives the anti-vaxx morons the ammunition to put even more children at risk.

I don't think there's anything wrong with me; I'm just different. My grievance is with intolerant people who won't make room in this world for people who are different.
