Description
To raise awareness of this exponentially increasing condition, I drew myself in a blue hat, vaping, and wearing blue clothing. Yeah, I know I would have drawn it 3 days ago, but I was really busy with personal stuff. And besides, it is no longer just a day, but a month. I decided to use blue and the puzzle piece because although there is no single symbol, the puzzle piece is the one that catches my attention the most, along with the color blue. Well, it means that autism is a very complex disorder that even today we are still trying to solve, and the color blue is one of my favorites. It may also be controversial, but as a guy on the spectrum, actually diagnosed at 2 years old, I support Autism Speaks. It is due to what they’ve done. Serve families with newly diagnosed, highlight research on the condition, listen to those on the spectrum (despite what #ActuallyAutistic says, which I STAY AWAY from), include the entire spectrum, and try to improve quality of life for those on the spectrum. I'm not saying that I don't support ASAN either (it's a yes), but it has a bit of misinformation (ABA is abuse, all autistic people can do what the typical do). I don't really like the infinity symbol because it's usually rainbow, which represents the LGBT community, which only wants to indoctrinate society, and do harm. I hope you find the light in the tunnel with it, no matter what!Hello, and good morning everyone! Today is Autism Awareness/Acceptance Month. Yes, you know, autism is a disability that affects socialization, communication, and developmental behaviors. I know I would have posted it yesterday, but I was very busy with homework. Obviously there is a difference between awareness and acceptance of autism. Some believe they are the same, but it is not. Awareness is understanding that what they do does not mean that they are spoiled; they can't do things like the typical ones, and there are many difficulties not only for the person, but their relatives as well. While acceptance is to be more inclusive in society, respect their differences and rights, and also in some cases, see autism as a natural variation in the brain that does not need therapy or treatment.
But within the spectrum, it's not the same for everyone affected. There are many difficulties that come in each case. Please, do not celebrate autism, it is not a personality quirk, because when it interferes with the opportunities of typical people, it is more than a neurodiversity, it is already a pathology. It is not a different way of living or feeling, nor a personality, nor a social condition. It is a disorder that impairs socialization and communication. Sometimes it can be a very serious tragedy when you can't communicate, or take care of yourself, getting very aggressive. Furthermore, just because the severely affected suffer a lot does not mean that the mildly affected do not suffer either. I can't socialize like everyone else, I can't tolerate certain sounds, I can't finish goals quickly, I can't concentrate well on many things, and I developed slower than others when I was a child, for example, I couldn't speak until I was 4.
In reality, you cannot have acceptance without awareness. Autism is not what makes me "me." If an autistic person did not have autism, he/she would not be completely different, but the same, with less difficulties. Because it is not a type of personality, but a disability. What we have on that for this month is inspirational porn stories, and that makes me really happy, that you should never let your disability stop you from doing things, and that we need inclusion. But… today in the news they are mostly the only ones we have, and sadly, we can't talk about the difficulties like any other disability, like those who can't communicate, those who are still in diapers at 40, the ones that need care and attention 24/7, those who stain their feces, those who beat themselves and even (and sometimes kill) their relatives and caregivers, those who suffer a lot and can't even do anything. According to the media, it's only those who graduate from Harvard, those who do calculus at 5, The Good Doctor, and even those who learn to speak at 11 and become teachers, and the non-verbals who communicate complex thoughts by AAC. Just because inspiring stories do it doesn't mean everyone can do it.
This “autistic” community is a “Tower of Babel” due to divisions between stereotypical groups such as the blue mothers who paint autism as a tragedy worse than cancer, the other blues who share inspirational porn stories and paint autism as a genius superpower, and the toxic neurodiversity movement, which paints autism as I explained above, just a social aspect. As someone diagnosed with autism at two, I am so sick of that movement, and even the faking disorders on TikTok for attention, and telling us how we need to think. Understand that Autism Awareness Day, even the month, is not just April 2, or even April. You have to be aware every day. Because it doesn't go away after April for 11 months of the year, it lasts a lifetime. We need support and knowledge, not romanticization or grief parties.
Happy Autism Awareness Day and Month! Understand that if you have autism and sometimes feel guilty, bad, or unworthy, I understand your feelings, and have thought so. Despite that, you are wonderful and deserve to be valued no matter what. It's okay to be different, be proud of the advantages that come with it. You may feel guilty, especially since you may have needed more care and attention than typical children and been a burden to your family, but it's not your fault, you didn't choose to have it. There is no one way to feel about autism. If you don't like having it, and want a cure, sure. Me too, but there is nothing I can do now, you have to learn to live with it, and achieve what you can. If you see it 100% positive, that's fine, and I respect your opinion, but NEVER force your opinion on others, because autism is never the same in each person. I hope those on the spectrum live well!
