I’m feeling so burnt right now, but i can’t cry? Listening to the XX I thought would help me cry but not even that. I have to finish an assignment thats due Thursday, and then start another two thats due in a few weeks.  Again, I have work twice a week, and I’m not liking the work.. It is good experience and great pay though. I’ve realised my goal is to go into private practice providing counselling/ other services as a SW, but my dream is counselling. I don’t think i fit the stereotypical hospital SW role and thats fine. I’ll be happy to wrap that placement up this week and back to early intervention I goooo. I was there a lot for my friends today… sometimes i feel they can’t be there for me though. Andres definetely is and a few other friends that are outside of my typical friendship group have been great though.  Everyone’s having a hard time in my cohort, we all just need a good cocktail and cake. 

Now i gotta make lunch for tomorrow and dinner tonight, and do this dang assignment. No wonder i feel so dead when it comes to sleep time. 

We did it!!! We became a counsellor!!!

being weird and full of love can save you

My love and my fear

Bro come look at the stars with me I am not feeling like myself

I feel like, we as a society, don't talk enough about people messing up needle felting.

"it's all in your head" correct! unfortunately I am also in there

Mental illness is all in your head in the same way that prostate cancer is all in your ass.

this person wins everybody else go home

I saw some snippet of a callout post for an autistic trans woman where they list social faux pas she committed, and I think we allistic people should all feel 100x more ashamed of not telling people in the moment how we feel about what they're doing. I think its extremely evil and cruel to not only lie to an autistic person and blame them for it but also to feel justified shaming them for your behavior. And it's currently the social norm to do that

Everytime we as allistic people sit and force a smile or sigh and act subtly grumpy or otherwise lie to an autistic person's face about how we feel about what they did it is in fact Our Fault that we are enduring whatever the autistic person is daring to try and share with us. You can literally say something out loud directly. The literal structure of our social existence will always traumatize autistic people unless you can give a fuck enough to consider it isn't their fault that you didn't communicate with them

Even I couldn't understand this until my wife was in tears because I had internalized the idea that it was her fault that people were uncomfortable in a conversation where no one told her they were uncomfortable and blamed her for it. Allistic people punish autistic people for so many Percieved slights, or even decide together afterward what exactly the slight was and then make their collective judgment behind the autistic persons back. Not only do we get the benefit of communicating nonverbally through obtuse social cues the autistic person can't parce, we then get to say that we weren't going behind their back because we all did those social cues they are too disabled to understand Right in front of them. No, what you did was choose to suppress your feelings and then reap the social benefits of being in on the discomfort.

99% sure this is about my callout and id like to say if people started apologizing to me for this shit right now it'd be too late. you gave me open questions i didn't know were commands, you interpreted my open questions as commands and judged me for feeling entitled to such a thing in the first place. everyone in the car laughed at my plot outline, man, you said the story was good.

This is really helpful to read. Especially because I struggle to call people out for anything which is a trauma submit response. So my ultimate fear is telling someone and they fire back at me and get defensive. I usually then break down and sob and feel disgusting and punished.

But you’re right. It does the other person detriment too when I don’t say anything. And typically I’ve found autistic people actually really appreciate the feedback and are not as defensive as neurotypicals.
