If people on twitter with large followings are saying don't get a diagnosis of autism until like breaking point or whatever.... Please don't listen. No one should be taken to breaking point. It should not take a break down for an autism diagnosis. You deserve better than that.

An infamous propagandist once said if you tell a lie often enough it becomes the truth. It is the same with #autism awareness week, by citing proven false deficits, those deficits become the perceived truth about #autism. The continual message is autism is bad.

Hey Pfizer Inc. your vaccine is not working properly. I got vaccinated a month ago and I'm still the same level of autistic I was before

Elon Musk tells the world he has ‘Asperger’s’. Pretty obvious but if only more high profile people would come out we would be a lot further towards acceptance. news.sky.com/story/elon-mus…

Yet another scam conversation.which.co.uk/scams/national…

Before he was ventilated he told his consultant that he wished he had been vaccinated. That he wished he had listened. His death is a tragedy. It shouldn’t have happened. He leaves a Mum & Dad, a sister (me), and a 19 yr old daughter.
