Organizing my overwhelmed autistic brain to prevent burnout. It’s taking so much energy and I’m not done yet.

The reward: if I completely finish setting this up, I won’t feel guilty waiting until tomorrow to start any of it! :)

Meet Marcia, clinical psychologist, autism ambassador and member of the Kingfisher – An Autism Tale advisory group.
She helps us portray autism with nuance: no stereotypes, no checklist of traits, no “superpower” story – just real, complex people.

Why an Autistic Person May Push for a Closer Friendship Right Away

Does your autistic loved one tend to overshare or overexplain? We don't mean to come off as desperate or creepy, we just connect differently.

They did it again.

Discord reset my notification sounds from "mute all" to "all on".

It hurts every time.

And they've done this because the executives at Discord are stupid and evil.

BBC News - #Autism, #ADHD & mental health review: What you need to know

What's NEEDED to know if the RISE in Diagnoses is from better KNOWLEDGE, UNDERSTANDING & INSIGHT

That is NOT the same as “OVER Diagnosed”

PS: Neurodiversity NOT Mental Health issue

Today is #FragileX Syndrome Awareness Day. Here are some screenshots of a thread I did 7 yrs ago on the other place. #autism #epilepsy #hypermobility #etc

An illustration of a normal X chromosome compared to a Fragile X one. The bottom bits of the X look like they have rubber bands around them. This is the fragile site.
"Today is European Fragile X Syndrom Awareness Day. FX is a chromosomal abnormality and is the most common from of inherited learning disability. It's called FX as the end of the chromosome looks like it's about to drop off".I am a carrier of FX and E&T (our children who are now - that's in 2026 - 25 and 21) have the syndrome. As it is a prob with the X chromosome, boys are more affected than girls as they have not "good" X chromosome to balance out the dodgy one.
FX has been described as autism with bells on and can come with: epilepsy, autism, global developmental delay, social anxiety, echolalia, hypermobility, hypotonia (low muscle tone), ADHD, sensory issues and flat feet with a forward-leaning gait.
Carriers tend to have strong autistic traits (I also have OCD) and are significantly more likely to have chronic anxiety and depression than their neurotypical peers. They might also develop FX Tremor Associated Ataxia, premature ovarian failure and brain atrophy. Yay!T has severe learning disabilities, epilepsy, hypermobility, hypotonia and ADHD., He also has a cracking sense of humour and is a happy young man who, although he struggles to say whole sentences in English, can sing whole songs in English and French.
E has hypermobility and autism with moderate learning disabilities. She is hugely creative - there's a photo attached on a colourful painting she did years ago of an Indian prince, has the most wonderful sense of comic timing and last year won Student of the Year at college.

A powerful and well-written account of being autistic in an NT world. A bit depressing, but *really* well put together.

Capitalism loves monotropism for productivity until monotropism becomes a force for clarity and social justice.

Watching Celebrity Traitors I'm clueless about their intentions and motives. I have to ask my partner to explain it and watch Uncloaked.

Makes me realise how vulnerable we are in competitive environments and why we get eaten alive in the workplace.

How do referral reasons, development, and environment shape #autism assessments? Explore key challenges—differentiating co-occurring conditions, managing diagnostic uncertainty, and assessing diverse populations—and build your diagnostic confidence. https://bit.ly/4fpWL2n

Is it realistic for an adult autistic to visit the Bayeux Tapestry exhibition? Yes, but know what you're getting into and do your prep. This was my experience. #Autism #BayeuxTapestry

@behindthefrequency.bsky.socialOct 10, 2026, 9:55 AM

#Autism and #AuDHD issues are exacerbated when the general public and people in your life don't realize that they actually have to step up just a small amount more than with other people they know, especially when it's your parents.

🌍 World Mental Health Day 💙

A world not designed for neurodivergent people can create challenges for autistic adults, impacting mental health and increasing anxiety and depression.

💙 Understanding and acceptance matter.

Needs led support won't work because normalcy is pervasive.
Workplaces will refuse support to save money and schools will because they haven't got the money in the first place.
