You try to speak. Only salt comes out. The house shakes its head. Thin staircases multiply. Every doorway is a mouth. ... Privacy is a rumor. The throat chokes and sprouts lies. You are a garden no one asked permission to plant. You are compostable. You are also carnivorous.

My Purpose is to be a truth teller & break cycles. I outgrew the pot I was planted in. It shattered & I was thrust into unknown soil. It took years for the shock to wear off, but my roots are growing again and the soil is richer here. I'm not "fixed," but will keep advocating & growing for us ✨

The "cure" for autism is not a pill. It's an environment that stops trying to subjugate our brains and nervous systems. We don't need to be fixed. We need to be understood. We just need our habitat protected, respected, and restored.

For anyone struggling with existing in the world today, remember that you are not broken. We are living in a very sick society that promotes harm over wellness, prioritizes violence over the health, favors corporations over children. Grieve however you need to. Your feelings are valid.
