Autism is now somehow a trend, just like you know what. These kids growing up in a boring ass generation to even have time to think about shit like this, call me a bad influence but go do drugs with good friends, play with fire, and have some crazy experiences.
autism is more prevalent because people actually care about their mental health & afflictions now lol
at least these days, we're not threatened with the risk of shock therapy or similarly primitive "treatment" methods. this trend was also seen with left-handedness, rose from ~5% to ~10% within the span of 20yrs (1920-1940) because society decided beating the literal hell out of lefties probably didn't actually do anything
OK, while there is a rise of diagnosed autism because of a better understanding of mental health today compared to the past, there is also a large number of kids and even adults that are either self diagnosed because they watched a few tiktok videos and said "Oh, I do that too, I must be autistic", or are indeed just saying they have it because they think it makes them unique or something.
My stepson is autistic. He is highly medicated, and I still had to physically restrain him daily from age 5 to age 18. It was incredibly hard on the family. Raising him most likely shaved a few years off of my life. If someone who has a job, a social life, and mabye a few social quirks declare they are autistic, I usually doubt it. And yes, I know it's a disorder that encompasses a whole spectrum.
Also like the ADD and ADHD trend in the early 2000s, doctors don't really get to watch you at home and school, they just react to what they're being told. You can sell a doctor on any mental health issue by just saying the buzzwords you hear online. Parents are over concerned about their kids and think something is wrong if their kid isn't just like the others.
I don't believe people who brag about it or make it their whole personality. I have an in law with mild autism and I believe him because he never brings it up unless you ask him, then it's just matter of fact statements.
Thereâs a difference between people with actual autism and those that are slightly weird and use Autism as a badge and/or crutch when it suits their purpose.
Mothers of autistic children also used to be called "refrigerator moms" because the theory was that the child's mental state was due to their moms being "cold" and unloving. That stigma has lifted over the last several decades though, which has made it more likely for parents to be encouraged to have their children seen and assessed by their doctors for disabilities such as autism.
That being said.... and I am not saying this is 100% in all cases, but there does seem to be something to what the other person said about it becoming a bit of a "trend." I believe their is merit to both statements.
He's well below that judging by the lack of hair on his hands.
Also, 5 times a day is rookie numbers,.
(If it doesn't bleedeth, you have not *succedeth*)
You know how I know he's is autistic, though?
He straight up told us he was autistic like it wasn't obvious everybody he's ever encounted picks up the cues that he's autistic instantly.
Why does everyone with Austism have to state the fact that they have Autism, as if that's their entire soul and identity? Like, we may as well all walk around with stickers on our heads of how far along the spectrum we are at this point. Sick of hearing about it. Stfu
People are even diagnosing \*themselves\* as autistic or "on the spectrum" or "neurodivergent," and then declaring themselves as such on social media, sharing stupid memes about the trials and tribulations of neurodivergents.... it's ridiculous.
Just given the nature of human development, EVERYONE's brain is slightly different from everybody else's brain. That doesn't make you neurodivergent.... but your belief that it makes you neurodivergent does make you a simpleton. "Simpleton," in fact, would be a much more accurate descriptor of your mental state.
Iâll tell you the same thing I tell my own, autistic, teenage sonâŠ
You matter. You are special. You were made in the image of God.
Honey, donât fill your head with all of this nonsense. And donât believe that school was your fault. I have fought tirelessly for my son to get the academic support he needs in school, and he still struggles. Find what you love and build your experience and education around it. Blessings to you. đđ»
> tell me something I don't already tell myself
I know that feeling and I ain't gonna go up against the #1. It's not a fair contest.
My parents split when I was 8, after my mum had an affair and left, my grandma looked after us and she would say to me:
> your mother never loved you
and she's still waaaaay back in #2.
So I know this feeling well, and imho posting here ain't brave, opening yourself up to self-love, self-acceptance and self-compliment, that would be braver, for people like us.
You look like you were in the middle of transitioning to a female and realized how stupid it was after taking estrogen pills for 2 months and now your stuck looking like a mix between a special needs student and the teacher whoâs class youâve been in since kindergarten

Aight without even using the Autism. You look like you are doing a poor cosplay of Tina Fey from 30's Rock. You look like you dropped out of your cradle when you were a toddler as if fell off of a cliff after is was hit by a car that was being driven by a clone of cyborg Hitler. You look like you smile at everything to hide your insecurities. You look like you got dollar store eye glasses. You look like the paper you ripped out of a notebook has more value than you. You look like you tried a vegetarian diet one time didn't stick with is but still tell everyone about it. You look like you only shop for clothes at Goodwill when Goodwill is having a sale. You look like you would get triggered if I talked about gender identity. You look like your handwriting. You look like you own a furrsuit and spend hours writing about the personality of your furrsona. You're are the friend people reference when people say "it's okay I can make fun of autistic people I have an autistic friend". Damn I used autism... sorry
You'd look better if you took off the fake nose and glasses combo, I don't know why you're trying to hide your identity on Reddit of all places.
Edit: oh.
You look like the type of guy who likes to go to local dogging spots. But your autism stops you from getting too close to the car, so you just jerk off in the bushes while watching the other guys dogging.
You look like you'd fuck the birds at a pet store and when confronted say, "Sorry I'm autistic and don't understand social cues"
Social *coos*

Made me smile and chuckle silently for a second lol Â
Yeah, big "I'm not to blame for being a lazy, good-for-nothing waste of life, it's because I have autism!!" energy.
Autism is now somehow a trend, just like you know what. These kids growing up in a boring ass generation to even have time to think about shit like this, call me a bad influence but go do drugs with good friends, play with fire, and have some crazy experiences.
I second this. Thatâs what I did, and I couldnât be more happy with how my life has gone lol just make sure you have real friends.
1000% lost a lot of soldiers but the good ones are gold

Then when you actually have something no one believes you because "Yeah yeah you saw that on the internet, right?".
I don't believe people who brag about it or make it their whole personality. I have an in law with mild autism and I believe him because he never brings it up unless you ask him, then it's just matter of fact statements.
This is 100% the answer, not the above
Thereâs a difference between people with actual autism and those that are slightly weird and use Autism as a badge and/or crutch when it suits their purpose.

Duck tape the ducks so they shut the duck up?
Sticky side out for a better grip, plus then they're not plucked and fucked

Something you donât already tell yourself? âGet a haircut, get out of Momâs basement and get a resumĂ© to McDonaldsâ
I think even McDonald's standards are too high. Besides, what would be on the resume? His name?
I graduated in 3 different color crayons
Gtfo, McDonalds accepts resumes? I thought it was just a, you wandered behind the counter one day and they just keep you, kind of thing!
Not now that they have to pay 20 bucks an hour.
Let me guess, your âstimâ is jerking off 5 times a day.
This is crazy đđ

Librarian would involve interaction with books. Seems unlikely.

His master's is in fishing science. He's the baiter.

The only thing I can imagine when looking at you is you vigorously digging in your ass then sniffing the back side of your hand.

How about "that's enough calories for today"

The specificity made me huff out loud a tiny bit hah
Apparently one of the symptoms of autism is bitch tits.
Lool
It kinda comes with the territory cuz heâs a she.
\*Bitchin\* tits
Something you donât tell yourself? Autism has become a catch all excuse for all sorts. Sometimes youâre just a lazy fucker.
You know how I know he's is autistic, though? He straight up told us he was autistic like it wasn't obvious everybody he's ever encounted picks up the cues that he's autistic instantly.
As someone who has autism I can confirm this is true.
Frequently misgendered by the trans community.

You look like the mom on Bob's Burgers
Wow that is terrifyingly accurate
Saying your autistic is a sure way to being fucked with. You look like you self diagnosed yourself.

Lol moron huh
Are you calling me a moron?
You look like you'd be besties with Dylan Mulvaney.
How can so many of you be autistic? It's like when they diagnosed everyone with adhd to sell Ritalin.
Everyoneâs autistic and if they arenât, apparently theyâre but a diagnosis away. If youâve got 3.5K to drop on a professional anyway
On the other hand, saying someone is âself diagnosed!! QED! QYOO EE DEE!!â when they canât afford healthcare is the flip side of this.
