lol snark or autism?
They are enjoy mutually exclusive my guy. Don't blame it on the autism.
I really don't like when people use autism as an excuse for shitty behavior, or as a pejorative. It's getting really old really fast and it's unfair to people who actually are autistic.
Please, don't use that word like that again.
Good thing I don’t care what others think. Nor should you, or anyone else. I am autistic, ADHD, dyslexic, with a helping of CPTSD from being repeatedly raped by a parent as a child.
If that's true, I'm sorry this happened to you.
But allow me to have some doubts about the veracity of your statement, especially since your account is only 6 days old and any anonymous stranger can say anything about themselves on the internet.
And wether you are autistic or not or if it affects you or not, using autism pejoratively like this is a trend that needs to end. (Like calling someone/something gay as a pejorative before.) I was only asking nicely to please not use it as a pejorative again. But that's all up to you.
Just as I don’t care what people think, I also don’t feel obligated to prove myself. I’m 50, so I had to navigate this shit before it was more accepted and studied (with parents that wouldn’t take me for help regardless).
But, I will take it under consideration this once (the use as a pejorative) since you asked nicely. At least online where my conditions aren’t as obvious (regardless of my honed masking) lol
Thank you. I appreciate it :)
And again, if what you say is true, and you did grow up with all these issues, I do sympathise with you.
Take care!
You’re welcome!
I appreciate the sentiment, thanks. Fortunately, I feel I am mostly healed from the traumas at this point. And, much of it was hidden from me for 30-40 years due to dissociative identity disorder.
Take care as well!
