Auticulate™️- AutisticallyBlunt™️

All Autistics are human - not all humans are Autistic. Autistic characteristics are human characteristics & not deficits - just differences demonised in a bid to purge society of ‘undesirables’ & lighten the ‘burden’ on society. Embrace Neurodivergence - accept neurodiversity.

@GMB @susannareid100 Oh my goodness! All of this disability focused hate in the media has good cause for filing a lawsuit!

Having ADHD shouldn't give you an automatic right to a blue badge - according to the Transport Secretary Heidi Alexander, who warned misuse of parking permit ‘undermines’ disabled people.  The number of people receiving blue badges for hidden disabilities has trebled in the past five years since the criteria was changed. Should we crackdown on blue badges?

@elonmusk Probably an Au thing because dark humour is my social compass. I am an AuDHDer.

@SteveSalterPGA @Tesco I don’t buy supermarket meat. I go to my local butchers where I can choose which piece I have and examine it before I buy - because it’s not hermetically sealed into plastic. Yay

Come on @Tesco!!! You buy a steak for £11 for a special occasion, looks lovely until you turn it over and realise half of it is fat and sinew. No time to return it so have to pretty much cut it in half to make it edible. Finest my ass!! Do better and stop tricking customers!!

@DrHoenderkamp I’m a late discovered AuDHDer & not knowing my neurodivergent identity and instead being wrongly labelled odd and attacked by other children who decided that my neurodivergent characteristics were to be eradicated by destroying me with emotional & physical abuse almost ended me.

Autism being overdiagnosed costing the labelled child, society and other children who need the resources. "nearly half of children diagnosed do not meet the criteria for autism when reassessed by specialists" thetimes.com/uk/healthcare/…

@DailyMail You do realise it’s April. Autism acceptance month - not autism assault! At the very least you could share Autistic insight direct from the Autistic community.

Just because your child doesn't make eye-contact doesn't mean they're autistic and 'masking' is nonsense, say researchers who claim condition is wildly overdiagnosed and 'potentially harmful' to vulnerable families trib.al/t9HWkE8

@JDaviesPhD I’m on Sertraline - 100mg and they are life changing. Without them I’m unable to look after myself.

Defending antidepressants with the general claim 'they are life-saving' is nonesense. The evidence shows that most people experience no positive effects beyond placebo, with only a minority finding them "life-saving" & others reporting increased suicidality, suffering & harm.

@ClarksonsFarm1 I’m not sure. I feel the information we are given access to doesn’t reflect reality so how can anyone make a fair comparison? What I would say is - we seem to be best at bending over, letting whoever wants a shot at slapping our 🫏 then doing absolutely nothing about it.

What does Britain do better than any other Country?🇬🇧

@PaulaMc007 True empathy comes from shared lived experience. Those who volunteer these kinds of opinions have no lived experience. They just say things to deflect the discomfort that your loss brings them. Sending you kindness and love x

#Oliverscampaign When your child dies, you never move on DONT say these hurtful words Has she not got over it yet?” Would you ever get over your child dying He’s in a better place!! Better than being with his loving family and friends? God only takes the best. I have no words
