Not your MPDG!! I’ve spent so much of my life apologizing on behalf of my authentic self. Warning others that I’m forgetful, annoying, sensitive, and overall “too much.” I wore these qualities like a caution label, but I didn’t even choose them. They were the way others had defined me. But the interesting thing is that on the other side of these “negative qualities” are some of my most special ones. I feel deeply, focus intensely, and express myself uniquely. These are also the very things I’ve always been praised for. It’s really peculiar to feel torn down for the exact qualities you’re lifted up for, and I feel like this is SUCH a common neurodivergent experience. It has made me feel as though I am uniquely wonderful, but only in small quantities. Only when people get to experience a little bit of me at a time. I’m finally learning that to be loved as a neurodivergent person is to be loved for ALL of ourselves, including the difficult, disabling, and sometimes inconvenient parts. I’m still learning this, but remember that those people are out there!!!! The people who won’t ask you to shrink yourself to make your neurodivergence more palatable. They’re ready to love all of you. #audhd #adhd #actuallyautistic #neurodivergent

I interviewed my friend Michael, who has “level 2 autism.” “Level 2” means someone needs a MODERATE level of support in daily life. That can look like needing help with back-and-forth conversation, having a harder time adjusting to changes in routine, relying on structure to get through the day, or needing support to communicate basic wants and needs. Michael and I have been friends for many years and I was so excited that he agreed to do this video for Autism Acceptance month! 🥰 #autism #autistic #autismacceptance #actuallyautistic #autismawareness

Sometimes it helps to flip the script. If you don’t understand why autistic people don’t like the way “professionals” talk about us, try this on. #autismacceptance #autismawareness #actuallyautistic #ASD #latediagnosedautistic #nd #neurodivergent #audhd #mentalhealthawareness

Though I’m AuDHD, I’m very much Autism dominant, so these traits lean heavily to that side. That being said, if you are only diagnosed with ADHD and resonate with these, I’d absolutely explore Autism as well. Even though it’s embarrassing to admit these things, I am a very self aware person and am constantly striving to better myself. If you’re also AuDHD, what are some of your not so desirable traits? #autism #audhd #adhd #actuallyautistic #neurodivergent
