For anyone out there who has self-assessed as #autistic, and can't access a formal assessment/diagnosis (or don't want to for your own reasons), this is for you:
🥰🫂🩷🙏

This is an excerpt. Please read the entire handout at this link:

Screenshot with excerpt of a handout by: University of Washington Autism Center In our experience at the University of Washington Autism Center, many professionals are not informed about the variety of ways that autism can appear, and often doubt an autistic person’s accurate self-diagnosis. In contrast, inaccurate self-diagnosis of autism appears to be uncommon. We believe that if you have carefully researched the topic and strongly resonate with the experience of the autistic community, you are probably autistic. https://depts.washington.edu/uwautism/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/Self-Diagnosed-Adult-Autism-Resources-handout-9-22-22.pdf

#UnmaskedAutistic taking my shoes off in the middle of a client appointment because shoes are cages.

I asked if they minded. They said, "Oh, thank god," and took off their shoes, too.

One more reason why being #OpenlyAutistic is so important.

It's definitely not easy to be #OpenlyAutistic. Yes, publicly there's less discrimination today than 10+ years ago. But in work and applying for jobs, you cannot deny it still exists strongly.

I've just been told to “advise ahead of time” because I had meltdowns.

I guess “normal” (pfft) people file sick leave because they knew they'll have a fever ahead of time.

Today, April 2nd, is also “World Autism Day”. But here in the #Philippines, the entire month of April is “World Autism Acceptance Month”.

I can't wait for freedom. 😅 But that means I have to find a new job, too. I'll take a break for a while to recover, then find a job that is appropriate, being #Autistic and all. #ActuallyAutistic #OpenlyAutistic

I'm the type of #Autistic who thrives in an environment with order, proper documentation, organised, & fixed processes. Otherwise, I start to meltdown. #ActuallyAutistic #OpenlyAutistic

In any case, it's just a different way of explaining. Like I said, here in the #Philippines, #Autism is considered a disability, and practically no one has issues with it being so.

I am #Autistic, I consider myself disabled as well.

I'm so drained, I only was able to do a few hours on a project. I was supposed to run earlier today but it rained. I guess back to #reading , my other recovery method.

And then I pop up and go I also think different but i do think different to you too... can I still be part of it? And I get shouted out attacked bullied you know kicked-out, #blocked !

This 4th dimension of time affects each #Autistic person differently. For some, they reached a point where they had enough of the discrimination, stereotypes, and stigma, they started to make a stand and chose to be an #OpenlyAutistic.
