came to the realization that it’s not ppl talking abt curing autism that is making me feel distraught. i would never ever blame someone who has autism & wants a cure bc it is such a struggle. but NT ppl like this obviously want a “cure” for THEIR benefit
while the stuff abt trump was funny today, this is a reminder that ppl like this are being empowered. speak for all of autistic ppl. and when someone with autism is like hey everyone is different, some of us don’t want to be allistic, welp ya know NT ppl

reread what i said. if autistic ppl want a cure for themselves i completely understand and would never think they’re wrong for thinking that. they’re the ones struggling & know. NT ppl don’t. when they say autism should be cured they’re not saying it from a kind place of not wanting to see us struggle. they’re saying it bc it would make them happier to not live in a world with autistics. i can’t do much myself either trust me lmfao. im very aware how disabling it is. i still *personally* do not

want to be cured. i just want more understanding & NT ppl to expect me to go thru my day like them. i need my own system & routine & help without pushback on how bc they can’t outwardly see my mental & physical (internal) condition so that must mean im just not trying enough & it’s either that or im pushed out from society. help for my specific condition that fits my needs. that’s what will help me. i do not want to be cured
