On the loss of autonomy and the danger of ABA, my family ‘ABA’ & my Father

Autonomy is the most vital thing for Autistic people’s safety. Respect it.

Sometimes you can get yourself back – even after nearly three decades of forgetting who you are underneath.

The dangers of elimination of stimming behaviour – be careful what you “wish” for.

Why am I often indecisive… I don’t know…

Sometimes children really do know more than we give them credit for.

When neurodivergent people share a personal story when you tell yours – it’s our communication style.

Most therapists don’t know how to do it.

This wasn’t a choice any of us asked for, and it cost us a lot.

“I’d like to see the world for once
All standing hand in hand
And hear them echo through the hills
For peace throughout the land”

Godlike focus… with little control over it. Mixed feelings about it.
