My issue with this app is that I always forget it exists, and I always tell myself I’ll be more active but it never happens…

Is it completely safe to unmask an a black #autistic woman? Absolutely not because I can come off at different times as so many different things and in certain situations it may seem inappropriate, aggressive rude etc everyone doesn’t have the privilege to unmask #actuallyautistic #autisticadult

Honestly, the fatigue is real, but rather than letting my body rest my brain likes to be switched on and buzzing! That’s why most times when I’m ‘resting’ I’m doing something to occupy my brain as it needs the stimulation and dopamine. #chronicfatigue #chronicillness #Autism #ADHD

Lil selfie from my movement break today. Staring at a screen can be exhausting, so little walks around are super helpful for me! 😋 #autism #adhd #phdstudent

I’ve had a drink, so I’m wondering how does alcohol affect other autistic people? #askingautistics
